About Arm Lift Surgery
A frustrating side effect of losing weight or getting older is the appearance of loose skin. At Schoemann Plastic Surgery, we offer arm lift surgery (also known as brachioplasty) as a procedure for anyone who cannot seem to tone and tighten their arms with exercise and diet alone. Loose skin from the elbow to the upper arm is very common, especially for women and men who are advancing in age or have lost weight. As residents of California, our team understands the importance of being able to show-off your arms with confidence. Dr. Mark Schoemann, a Encinitas, CA double board-certified and fellowship-trained plastic surgeon, is very skilled in skin tightening and fat removal techniques. If you would like to learn more about how brachioplasty can alter the contour of your arms while prioritizing your safety and comfort, please schedule a consultation at Schoemann Plastic Surgery today.
Ideal Candidates
An arm lift is an aesthetic surgery which uses innovative techniques to slim the arms and remove extra skin. For many, the back of the arm is one of the first areas to get loose and flabby. In most cases this is genetic, and there isn’t anything you can do for it at the gym. If you avoid sleeveless clothes because of your flabby arms, you are an ideal candidate for arm lift surgery. You should be in good overall health before undergoing this procedure, so that your body will heal well. Some of the top concerns for patients who want an arm lift are excess, hanging skin on the upper arms, and lost tightness of the skin. It is imperative that you are at or near your goal weight prior to your procedure, to help maintain your results.
