Loose skin on the upper arms can follow significant weight loss, be hereditary, or simply a result of aging. For this patient, I performed an arm lift to remove redundant skin and refine the contour from shoulder to elbow so sleeves fit smoothly and the arm line looks clean from every angle.
The incision runs along the inner upper arm. My goal is that it isn’t visible from the front or back when the arms are down, though depending on anatomical position and clothing, it can be. We plan the incision design together and follow a dedicated scar therapy protocol to help it fade better and faster than it would without intervention. Our goal is to minimize the incision’s visibility as much as possible.
While a short-scar arm lift exists, it does not provide the same degree of tightening or longevity. I reserve it for very select cases because the majority of patients need the full procedure for results that are effective in the long-term.
