Arm Tuck
in Beverly Hills, CA
The upper arm can undergo natural changes over time or after significant weight loss, resulting in loose skin that is visible when the arms are raised. An arm tuck, also known as an arm lift or brachioplasty, addresses that excess skin to create a smoother, more youthful arm contour. An arm tuck can provide noticeable, long-lasting improvements that help boost your confidence and allow you to comfortably wear sleeveless clothing again.

What Is an Arm Tuck?
An arm tuck, also known as an arm lift or brachioplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that removes excess skin and improves the contour of the upper arms. When appropriate, Dr. Kadz may combine brachioplasty with liposuction to address small areas of excess fat and further refine the contour of the upper arms. The procedure is commonly chosen by individuals whose skin has naturally lost elasticity over time or who have excess upper arm skin after significant weight loss.
Benefits of an Arm Tuck
An arm tuck offers numerous, long-lasting benefits, including the following:
- Creates a smoother, more toned upper arm contour
- Reduces skin chafing, irritation, and recurrent rashes
- Improves comfort during daily activities
- Allows clothing to fit more comfortably
- Reduces excess skin that may interfere with clothing or physical activity
Who Is an Ideal Candidate for an Arm Tuck?
Men and women who are self-conscious about excess skin on the upper arm may consider brachioplasty. Ideal candidates should meet the following criteria:
- Excess skin of the upper arms
- Good general health
- Stable weight for at least six months
- Non-smoker or willing to quit
- Realistic expectations for the surgery
How Arm Tuck Surgery Is Performed
Dr. Kadz performs arm tuck surgery under general anesthesia. He creates an incision underneath and toward the back of the upper arm, where it can typically be concealed along the inner portion of the arm. He removes excess skin and, when appropriate, may use liposuction to address small areas of excess fat. The correction may extend into the armpit when necessary to create a smoother, more natural contour from the shoulder to the elbow.
The surgery typically takes one to two hours to complete. Some patients might choose to combine their arm lift with other procedures, such as a breast lift or tummy tuck, which may extend the surgery time. Once it is complete, patients may return home the same day to recover.
Arm Tuck Recovery & Aftercare
Many patients take approximately one to two weeks away from work and other activities to allow their body time to rest and heal. You will wear a compression garment to help minimize swelling and support healing. Dr. Kadz will also provide medication to help keep you comfortable during the early stages of recovery. You will be instructed to keep your arms elevated to minimize swelling and avoid lifting heavy objects to support the healing process.
Most patients gradually return to work and light daily activities within approximately two weeks. Many patients resume more strenuous exercise around six weeks, depending on how they are healing and when Dr. Kadz determines it is safe to do so. Dr. Kadz will carefully monitor your recovery and clear you for activities as your body heals.
What Results Can I Expect From Arm Tuck Surgery?
You will likely notice improvements in the appearance of your upper arms soon after surgery. Your results will continue to improve over the following weeks and months as swelling subsides. Your new arm contours will become increasingly apparent as swelling resolves and the tissues settle over the months following surgery. Most patients appreciate their results by about three months, while scars continue to fade and mature for up to one year or longer. Your arm tuck results can be long lasting if you maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle.
