Arm Lift

Fluctuations in weight, growing older and even heredity can cause your upper arms to droop and sag. While exercise will strengthen the underlying muscle tone of the upper arms, it will not fix the excess skin that has lost its elasticity or remove localized fat deposits that give arms a droopy appearance. Even the most rigorous exercise can’t make the skin taught, especially when age or significant weight loss is the underlying cause. If summertime leaves you worrying about short sleeves then an arm lift, or brachioplasty, may be an option for you.
