Upper Arm Lift - Dr. Mackenzie in Santa Barbara does Recontouring after Weight Loss

Arm Lift and Thigh Lift

As with the lower body, bariatric surgery patients or others who have lost significant amounts of weight may be faced with excess, draping skin on their upper arms. This skin is not only unattractive, but can also interfere with dressing and exercise. An upper arm lift, also called brachioplasty, can successfully remove this excess skin and tissue, giving a slimmer, more natural looking appearance to the arms. If you believe you might be a candidate for upper arm lift, Dr. Mackenzie would be happy to discuss the procedure in more depth with you.

Brachioplasty can often be combined with other surgeries which are commonly indicated after significant weight loss, such as breast lift (mastopexy).
