Arm Lift in Glen Ridge | M. Shuja Shafqat, MD

Understanding Arm Lift Surgery

An arm lift, medically known as brachioplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess sagging skin from the upper arms. This procedure helps patients who have experienced significant weight loss or struggle with loose skin due to aging or genetics.

Why Consider an Arm Lift?

• Eliminate droopy, hanging skin under the arms
• Improve body proportions and contours
• Enhance self-confidence in form-fitting clothing
• Address skin laxity that exercise cannot resolve

Ideal Candidates for Arm Lift in Glen Ridge

Suitable candidates for brachioplasty typically include individuals who:

• Have maintained a stable weight
• Exhibit significant skin laxity in the upper arms
• Are in good overall health
• Have realistic expectations about surgical outcomes

Surgical Approach

The arm lift procedure involves creating an incision on the underside of the arm, removing excess skin and fat, and tightening the underlying tissue. The length of the incision depends on the amount of skin requiring removal.

Recovery and Results
