An arm lift or brachioplasty is a cosmetic surgery to shape the arms. Aging leads to a reduction in collagen and loss of skin elasticity, often visible in the upper arms. Massive weight loss is another reason for drooping skin and tissues in this area. The skin is usually dystrophic in such patients. Since there is a significant weight loss in a short time, the skin doesn’t shrink well and hangs loosely by the sides, resembling bat wings.
An arm lift surgery in Bangalore at Aesthetics Plus addresses the baggy underarms by removing excess skin and fat and tightening the underlying tissues. The overall effect is a smooth, sleek, and well-defined arm shape.
There are variations to the traditional arm lift procedure. Some people have fat accumulation in their underarms with hanging tissues and skin. Patients with PCOS also display a fat collection in the upper arms and the shoulder region. In such cases, liposuction is performed to remove the fat, followed by skin excision.
When there is only excess fat with no sagging of the skin or stretch marks, arm liposuction alone is enough for arm fat reduction and contouring of the arms

The procedure is done under anesthesia for patient comfort. The surgeons decide the incision placement depending on the amount of excess skin to be removed. The arm lift scar is placed along the inner aspect of the arm and can be till the mid-arm or right down to the elbow.
Arm fat is addressed mainly through liposuction, depending on the surgeon’s preference. The underlying tissues are tightened and reshaped, and the excess skin is excised and properly draped over the arm tissues to give well-shaped arms.
The skin and underlying tissues are closed with sutures and surgical tape upon completion of the procedure.
Sometimes an upper body lift is combined with the arm lift if needed. The upper body lift removes the “bra folds” skin in the back, and the incision extends right across the back.
Being a daycare procedure, the patient can leave the same day. After a week, the surgeon removes the stitches. Initially, there is some bruising and swelling that slowly settles down. Results from the arm lift are seen immediately following the procedure; however, it takes some time to see the final contour.
Within a week to 10 days, the patient can resume normal activities. After a month, the patient can start exercises. Don’t lift the arms above the shoulder level for at least 3-4 weeks. Healing varies from person to person, depending on the extent of correction, skin quality, and patient’s overall health. On the whole, you can see recovery in 2-3 weeks.
Brachioplasty leaves a scar, but our surgeons will try to minimize it and place it in the inner aspect of the arm, so it is not visible. The scars take anywhere from 3 to 6 months to fade.
Strenuous activity or heavy lifting is not advised in the initial period following surgery as the sutures holding the tissues and skin need to settle and heal.
The results from an arm lift are sustainable for a long time if you maintain a stable body weight. However, with aging, patients might see some sagging.
Like any surgery, an arm lift also carries some risks, which our surgeons educate you about during the consultation. Choosing a qualified plastic surgeon to perform the procedure is crucial to minimize these risks.
Arm lift leaves a scar, but our surgeons place the incisions in a way that is not visible. The chances of the scar becoming hypertrophic is rare but can occur in some patients and are treated with steroids. While the surgeons attempt to obtain symmetry between both arms, a small amount of variation is possible due to differences in healing.
Some patients also see a change in skin sensations and numbness that settle with time. Patients are advised to avoid strenuous activities following surgery to prevent issues with the stitches. Bleeding, infection or reaction to anesthesia are also a possibility.
Various factors determine arm lift surgery-brachioplasty cost.

Wonderful experience with Aesthetic plus. Dr. Surindhar is incredible, not only has explained me entire procedure but also ensured I had a smooth prep, surgery, and follow-up. It’s rare to find a doctor that combines such personal touches and care for a patient as a person with outstanding quality of medical care. I am so glad I chose Aesthetic Plus and would highly recommend.
It was a great experience to get treated from Aesthetic Plus. The service, doctors, helpers and environment was quite friendly and comfortable. This treatment has changed my life into something better. I would recommend you all to give it a try and find yourself how they change your life too.... Thanks to Team Aesthetic Plus & DR. Surindher Sir
Visited Dr Surindher for a procedure which I was contemplating for a very long time. He made me extremely comfortable and explained everything in detail which made me gain confidence to go ahead with the procedure. The procedure went well with no pain at all.Post the procedure there was minor discomfort for 2-3 days and Dr Surindher was always available on call to help address any concern and to follow up with the progress.The post operative follow up was brilliant. Highly recommended Dr Surindher! Cheers and thank you !
I've known Dr. Surindhar for many years now, when he performed a surgery for removal of my axillary lymph nodes which was such an investment to my health and an addition to it's aesthetics was a bonus. I like his approachability n the precision of work, be it non or invasive jobs- big or small. I would highly recommend him for any of your cosmetic/ aesthetics related work.
Got a chemical peel from Dr.Surindher for my acne scars. My skin felt very smooth and brighter after the procedure. Had a really comfortable experience at the clinic and doctor was very patient in answering all my frequent follow up questions.
Nice place. Neat and clean. Courteous staff. Knowledgable doctor good hands didnt force me and my husband regarding procedures and gave us all the facts. I got a mummy makeover( tummy tuck + breast lift) and hubby got a hair transplant with the Aesthetics Plus team. Very happy with the result. Waiting for hubby's final result. Thank you DrSurindher and team. Keep it up

Incisions undertaken during an arm lift surgery depend on the amount of fat and skin that needs removal. The incision is hidden in the armpit in individuals with less loose skin and fat deposition. However, in the presence of excessive loose skin and fat, a full-fledged arm lift will require a longer incision extending from the elbow to the armpit. The plastic surgeons at Aesthetics Plus are conscious of the scars and try to place the incisions in a way to minimize the scars. With healing, the scars fade and lighten.
Initially, some patients experience mild pain and feel as if the skin is stretched, and this discomfort gradually settles down. For comfort, we prescribe pain medications.
Exercise or medications do not resolve bat arms. Surgery is the only effective solution for this.
Arm lift surgery in Bangalore is not for everyone. Smokers or people consuming tobacco products should avoid an arm lift procedure. Patients wishing to have the surgery should stop smoking six weeks before the surgery. Individuals with connective tissue disorder are not good candidates for this operation.
Individuals who have massive weight loss post-bariatric surgery or due to diet and exercise experience excessive loose skin in other areas besides the arms. There can be many combinations. We can do an abdominoplasty, a breast augmentation, or a breast lift with this. A lower body lift and a thigh lift also can be added. Facelift and neck lift can be done with a brachioplasty.
Your surgeon is the best person to decide what procedures can be done together. The health of the patient and the surgical skill of the plastic surgeon and his team determine this combination. The desire of the patient also is essential here. Discuss with the expert plastic surgeons at Aesthetics Plus to design a treatment plan for you with your arm lift in Bangalore.
The results last long-term if you have a stable weight with no excessive weight gain. However, it is impossible to halt the signs of aging that may lead to sagging.
Understand the procedure, recovery, and results clearly. Our cosmetic surgeons will answer all your questions and give you a realistic picture of what to expect about the results. You will be asked to quit alcohol and smoking a few weeks before and after surgery.
As part of the pre-op evaluation, we order some blood tests and investigations. Based on these diagnostics, current state of health, and medical history, our surgeons decide your fitness and the safest approach to your surgery.
Our surgeons will note every minute detail about your health; hence, individual advice differs for each patient. Plan the time off from work in consultation with your surgeon. Stop taking any blood-thinning medications like Aspirin. Please read our general instructions here to prepare for your arm lift.
During the initial consultation with the doctor, inform them about your medical history, medications, reasons, and expectations from the surgery. Stop smoking before the surgery as smoking can affect the healing process and cause complications. Understand the surgery, and ask all relevant questions so you have clarity about all aspects of the procedure. Arrange for some time off to recover from the surgery.
At Aesthetics Plus, we give high priority to the needs of the patient. We first understand your desires and expectations and then formulate your treatment plan. Our board-certified and experienced surgeons are committed to giving you safe and natural-looking results.
Our team is there to help you at every step of the surgical process. We are transparent about the costs and don’t have any hidden charges.
