About this Treatment
Arm Lift
An arm lift in Toledo, or brachioplasty, is a plastic surgical procedure that reshapes and improves the upper arm and underarm areas.
This is done by reducing excess fatty collections, removing excess sagging skin, and then re-positioning and lifting the upper arm and adjacent tissues.
What It Is
Aging, weight gain or loss, and heredity can cause imbalance, sagging and loss of proportion of the upper arms and underarm areas. Although exercise is recommended and important, it cannot correct these changes. Aesthetic surgical techniques involving precise removal of excess fatty collections and skin redundancy combined with repositioning and supporting the tissue of the upper and underarm areas are the most effective and lasting procedures to restore natural appearing and youthful contour. EVOLV Plastic Surgery and Medical Aesthetics firmly believes in the importance of improving skin health to optimize the result and longevity of any aesthetic procedure.
