Arm lift/Brachioplasty
An arm lift may be helpful if you are concerned about loose skin affecting your arms.
Arm lift surgery, also commonly known as brachioplasty, is a procedure designed to tighten and lift the skin of the upper arm. Sagging skin or ‘Bingo Wings’ can result from ageing and weight loss.
Loose skin around the arm area can make some people feel self-conscious and may limit the type of clothing that they can wear.
