Bags of fat and sagging skin can collect around your upper arm as you get older. When you move your arms, this unsightly skin can appear to have a mind of its own. Arm lift surgery can remove this skin, and restore a sleeker appearance to your upper arms. When massive weight loss, whether as a result of bariatric surgery or other means, results in excess skin around the arms, arm lift can also be an important element of your post-bariatric body contouring.
To perform the surgery, Dr. Sergio Soberanes simply removes the bag of skin and fat that hangs down below your arm. He places the incision in such a way as to keep the resulting scars as inconspicuous as possible.
