This 46-year-old female came to see our doctors after she underwent bariatric surgery and lost more than 100 lbs. After loosing all this weight she felt that the excess skin on her upper arms was limiting her activity and clothing choices. She wanted an arm lift or brachioplasty, and like many Austin, Texas area women looking for post-bariatric weight loss surgery body contouring she decided to make an appointment with our doctors to see what options were available to improve the shape and contour of her arms.

During her consultation, our doctorstook time to explain to her all the details about brachioplasty, and answered all of her questions about the procedure. they pointed out that the surgery works to remove excess skin and fat from the upper arm from the axilla (underarm) to the elbow.

During surgery, our doctors carefully planned his incisions so that her scar would like in the middle of her inner arm to make it less noticeable, removed extra skin and fat and used small sutures placed only under the skin to meticulously close her incisions.

After surgery she was thrilled with the results. She no longer had chaffing of her upper arms with activity, and her clothing fit better too. She felt the dramatic effect brachioplasty surgery had on reshaping her body was well worth the incisions and cost.
