What is an arm lift?

An arm lift is a custom surgery designed to reshape and contour the upper arms. Whether you've experienced significant weight loss or are unhappy with the appearance of sagging skin and fat on your upper arms, an arm lift restores a firmer, more sculpted appearance. Because the incisions are usually hidden along the inner arm, patients can wear sleeveless clothing while the scars are out of view. At Northern Jersey Plastic Surgery Center, under the expert guidance of Dr. Troy Callahan, our esteemed Chief of Plastic Surgery at Englewood Health, we specialize in arm lift procedures, providing personalized care and exceptional results.

The procedure

The surgical process begins with administering anesthesia to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure. Dr. Callahan will then make incisions along the inner side of your arms, strategically placed to be inconspicuous. In a mini-arm lift, the incisions may be placed in the underarm. Excess skin and fat are carefully removed, and underlying tissues are tightened and reshaped to achieve a sculpted arm appearance. The incisions are then meticulously closed.

What is the recovery after an arm lift?

After an arm lift, it is normal to experience some swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the treated area. Dr. Troy Callahan will provide detailed post-operative instructions to ensure a smooth recovery, which includes wearing compression garments to speed the healing process and minimize swelling. It is essential to follow all post-operative guidelines provided by Dr. Callahan, including avoiding strenuous activities and lifting heavy objects for a specified period.

As your body heals, you will begin to see the transformative results of your arm lift in Englewood. Your arms will appear more sculpted, free from the drooping skin and tissue. While individual recovery experiences may vary, most patients can return to normal activities within a few weeks, with the arms continuing to refine over time and scars fading.
