Arm Lift
Why Get an Arm Lift?
The skin on our upper arms can lose elasticity as we get older, causing it to hang down. This condition, commonly called "batwings," can give your arms an out-of-shape look no matter how many bicep curls you do. Losing a large amount of weight after dieting or undergoing bariatric surgery can also cause excess sagging skin.
A brachioplasty, also known as an arm lift, is a body contouring procedure that can help address cosmetic concerns in your arms. By giving underlying tissue a surgical lift and trimming away excess skin between your armpit and elbow, Dr. Bruce Hermann can help give your upper arms a more defined, toned shape.
For even more dramatic results, Dr. Hermann can combine this procedure with liposuction to remove fat deposits. Dr. Hermann can also modify an arm lift to target concerns extending into the chest area.

The Arm Lift Surgery Procedure
Day of Procedure
To Ensure a Safe Recovery
During the first few weeks following your surgery, avoid any strenuous exercise that could cause your incisions to open or affect the results of your procedure.
Elevating your arms during sleep and inactivity can help reduce the risk of inflammation and facilitate healing. With proper care and Dr. Hermann's approval, most patients can return to work within two weeks of surgery.
Attend all follow-up appointments with Dr. Hermann so he can check on your progress, remove drainage tubes, and take out stitches.
Should you need it, pain medication will be prescribed to keep you comfortable.
Ensuring Long-Lasting Arm Lift Results
Although the elasticity of your skin will decrease as you age, there are a few measures you can take to support long-lasting results. Maintaining a stable weight will help keep your arms from losing their toned, contoured look. To help your scars fade, cover them when in direct sunlight.
Am I a Good Arm Lift Candidate?
Good candidates need to be healthy enough for surgery and have a stable weight. It is recommended to quit smoking for good before surgery since tobacco can inhibit healing.
As an arm lift procedure will address only the area around your arms, you should also maintain realistic expectations for the outcome. If you desire a more dramatic transformation, consider combining this surgery with other body contouring procedures.
More Glowing Reviews for Dr. Hermann
Choosing a surgeon can be scary but let me help. Dr. Hermann is an amazing surgeon and I HIGHLY recommend him. I had a breast lift/augmentation and at 3 months post op I'm in awe of my body. I never thought I would feel this confident even after losing all my baby weight. The staff here is also incredible. They were always willing to help me with ANY questions or concerns through out the entire process. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Hermann and his staff. Schedule a consult you wont be disappointed!!
View On GoogleFrom the beginning of this surgical journey, I found the office staff to be welcoming and friendly. They strived to accommodate my schedule and time. After meeting with Dr. Hermann initially, I could see how he sets the tone for his business. He was easy to talk to and patient in answering all of my questions, even when I needed to pop back in once more before my scheduled surgery to confirm my decision and ease my mind over the process. As I'm now 2 months post surgery, I am so pleased with the results! I wish I had done this years ago!...
