Arm Lift / Brachioplasty

Do you struggle with sagging skin or excess fat on your upper arms? Whether due to weight loss, aging, or genetics, loose skin in this area can affect your confidence and limit your clothing choices.

What Is an Arm Lift (Brachioplasty)

An arm lift, or brachioplasty, is a cosmetic surgery designed to remove excess skin and fat from the upper arms, tightening and reshaping the area for a more defined look. This procedure is ideal for individuals who have lost significant weight, experienced skin laxity with age, or struggle with stubborn fat deposits that won’t go away with diet and exercise.

I’ve been a BGMG girlie for a while. Im 44 and wanted a little mid life touch up of a few places lol! I recently went back in for a 360 lipo, plus neck and chin lipo w Dr. M. I am so beyond pleased with my results! He is the absolute best! His attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile to create the right shape is rare, appreciated and amazing. And just as amazing is the staff inside the medical building. The stars are for the surgery center. The med spa upstairs is a very different story. They were so rude, unhelpful and unwelcoming. I came in 2 days after surgery for a lymphatic massage, in a lot of pain and very uncomfortable and they were beyond unhelpful and rude. It felt like i was a burden and i had to hunt down help twice and tear them from their own conversations so i could find my massage therapist, who disappeared right after the massage, to tip. I actually own a day spa know how they run. And the way they treat their clients is unacceptable. The Med Spa upstairs gets -5 stars

Today was my first time visiting BGMG Cosmetics, I initially found them on Instagram and made contact via DM. The office is beautiful, and the staff is very friendly and welcoming. If you are a girly girl or boy who loves pink, you will love it here! I have inquired about multiple services and felt all of my answers were answered very clearly and personable. I love that the staff made me feel comfortable to really talk further into depth about the benefits from each service and provide me with a clear aspect of what to expect from each one. This is important to me because I didn't want to leave home with any unanswered questions or hesitations. Thank you again BGMG Team, see you all again soon!

I had such an amazing experience. From the moment you go in for your consultation everyone is so nice. Lorena the treatment coordinator was amazing. My consolation was with Dr.M. He was straight toward and made me feel comfortable. I didn’t feel rushed or pressured. A week later I booked my surgery and met with the nurses who were super professional and friendly. The overall process was amazing and I feel amazing too. I recommend coming here for any of your surgeries.

I had a breast augmentation done here and i couldnt be happier! The women/ nurses there were so sweet and helpful, the surgeon did an amazing job, so talented and I'm very happy with my results. One thing I'm super happy I did was GO IN for a consultation, i did online too but going in i was able to see and try on the different sizes of implants. I was set on 400cc but when i got to see them in real life, on me i knew i wanted them just a little bit bigger so i chose to go 500cc and im sooooo incredibly thankful i did because I would have been that girl wishing I went bigger. I'm almost two weeks post op I would recommend them to everyone !

I got some work done here and initially I was scared to but my mind was dead-set on it. The day came and Dr Sahafi was so kind to me and everything went well. After the procedure I was in contact with the nurse (Helen) who was really attentive answered all my texts and met me for my follow ups. Im about 5 weeks post-op and so far so good. My body looks great.

Types of Arm Lift Surgery

01

Mini Arm Lift (Limited-Incision Brachioplasty)

✔ Ideal for mild skin sagging near the armpit

✔ Shorter recovery time & minimal scarring

02

Traditional Arm Lift (Standard Brachioplasty)

✔ Best for moderate to severe excess skin from armpit to elbow
✔ Incision placed along the inner arm for hidden scars
✔ Removes excess fat and tightens skin for dramatic results

03

Extended Arm Lift

✔ Ideal for major weight loss patients with excess skin extending to the chest
✔ Longer incision for maximum skin tightening
✔ Most comprehensive transformation for sculpted arms

04

Liposuction-Assisted Arm Lift

✔ Combines fat removal with skin tightening
✔ Great for patients with stubborn arm fat & mild skin laxity
✔ Smaller incisions & faster healing time
