How is arm lift surgery performed?

Brachioplasty is usually performed under a general anesthetic and may take up to three hours. The medical practitioner makes a cut on the inner surface of your upper arm from the armpit to the elbow. Extra fat is removed with liposuction, which involves the insertion of a thin tube into the fat deposit. The fat is vacuumed out with a large syringe. The underlying muscle is tightened with stitches to smooth and define the shape of the upper arm, the extra skin is cut away and the cuts are sewn back with stitches.
