Frequently asked questions

Brachioplasty is a surgical procedure aimed at removing loose skin and excess fat from the arms, offering a firmer and more well-shaped contour.

The brachioplasty method can be performed with two techniques, the choice of which depends on the degree of skin laxity.

The first and more conservative surgical technique involves removing a small extent of excess skin and creating an incision in the armpit area, which may not be easily noticeable (fish-mouth technique). The second technique involves a horizontal incision on the inner side of the arm through which a larger volume of loose tissue can be removed. After six months to a year, the incisions of this method become almost invisible. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, sedation, or general anesthesia, depending on the problem of each patient, and does not require hospital stay.
