An arm lift helps to remove excess skin of the upper arms for a slimmer, sleeker contour.
Many of our patients who have undergone massive weight loss or have developed excess arm skin with age are very self-conscious about this area. They complain that clothes don’t fit correctly, they are unable to wear short sleeves, and they can have hygiene issues. Some patients simply desire a sleeker, tighter-looking arm. An arm lift can help you achieve this sleek contour and feel better about your arms in clothing with or without sleeves.
Arm lift procedures are often a careful balance between scarring and contour. While everyone’s goal is to maximize contour and minimize scarring, sometimes a trade-off must exist. The surgical team at Cox Cosmetic Surgery wants to work with you to achieve your specific goals.

Many patients seeking an arm lift or Brachioplasty have undergone massive weight loss and require the removal of excess skin from several areas of the body, including the abdomen, thighs, back, and breast. Dr. Cox spends a large part of their training working with one of the innovators in breast contouring surgery after massive weight loss. He has experience in both staging and combining many of these massive weight loss body contouring procedures and can counsel their patients on the timing and progression of these surgeries.
On the day of your surgery, Dr. Cox will meet you in the preoperative area to go over any last-minute questions or concerns you may have. He will make preoperative markings and perform extensive checks, ensuring high-quality care and safety. You will meet the anesthesiologist and their team, as well as the members of our operative team.
During the procedure, Dr. Cox pays meticulous attention to detail and works to ensure a great result with a focus on safety and quality. Your family will be updated on your status periodically and will be able to talk with the physician one-on-one after the procedure is completed.
Your recovery will depend on the type of procedure performed by your surgeon at Cox Cosmetic Surgery. You will likely have a surgical garment with surgical dressings in place. It is normal to have some drainage on these dressings after surgery. Depending on the type of procedure, you may also have some drain tubes in place. You will be given a scar care kit and detailed instructions regarding scar management.
