Arm Lift
Diet and exercise can transform your body, but there are some spots that tend to need a little extra help. Chief among them are the arms. Whether you are battling excess fat, sagging skin, poor muscle tone or some combination of the three, an arm lift, or brachioplasty, can help you get the look you want.
Arm lifts are often done on their own, but they can be combined with other plastic surgery procedures, including a tummy tuck or breast lift.

Is an Arm Lift Right for You?
Arm lifts are suited for men and women who are unhappy with the way their upper arms look but are otherwise healthy. Candidates need to be realistic in their expectations and stable in their weight. Some reasons to consider getting brachioplasty include:
- Wanting to show off your figure after significant weight loss
- Desiring a more youthful look
- Being able to engage in physical activity without discomfort
- Feeling like the arms are heavy or difficult to move due to sagging
During Your Arm Lift Surgery
Dr. Davis performs arm lift surgery in Nashville at The Atrium, a specialty operating facility at Centennial Hospital. During your procedure, general anesthesia will be used, and excess skin and fat will be removed and the arm reshaped for greater definition. Surgery generally takes anywhere from 1 to 3 hours, though this varies between patients.
Arm Lift Recovery
After your arm lift procedure, you will need to take about a week off from all activity to rest and heal. Be careful not to strain your arm muscles for several weeks after surgery. You will need to wear special garments to promote healing and decrease swelling.
After the first week, you will be able to resume moderate activity while still avoiding stressing the arms. 6 weeks post-surgery is when most patients are back to their usual routines, though, healing is different for everyone. Listen to your body and consult with Dr. Davis.
