You may be a candidate for an upper arm lift if you have sagging skin on the upper arms due to aging, genetics or weight loss. Our Murrieta, CA, plastic surgery center offer this type of surgery. A reduction or elimination of excess skin from the upper arms is the intended result of an upper arm lift.
This procedure is usually done under general anesthesia. In order to remove the unwanted skin, an incision is required that runs from near the elbow into the armpit. Our Temecula plastic surgeon will place the incision in the most inconspicuous location (inner arm toward the back), but some scarring will always be visible. |

An additional procedure that may enhance the result of an upper arm lift is liposuction of the upper arms. Those options can be discussed during a consultation with our body contouring, Murrieta specialist. |
