About Arm Lift (Brachioplasty)
In Ireland, many people experience loose skin and excess fat on the underside of their arms. This can be due to:
- Significant weight loss
- Natural ageing
- Reduced skin elasticity
- Family history
Unfortunately, this excess skin often doesn’t respond to diet or exercise. An Arm Lift can help by removing the unwanted skin and fat, leaving you with firmer, more toned arms.
Procedure Time:
Approximately 2 hours
Return to Work:
10 days
Full Recovery:
4 weeks
Price:
From €4,500 to €5,600
What to Expect from the Procedure:
During an Arm Lift, an incision is typically made from the armpit to the elbow to remove the excess skin and fat. The procedure may leave a scar, but this is usually well-hidden and fades over time.
For patients with only mild cases, we may recommend laser or Vaser liposuction instead, which tightens the skin while removing fat. This is a less invasive option that can still achieve excellent results.
