Men who have undergone significant weight loss may develop excess skin in their upper arms. Other common causes for excess skin in the upper arms are aging or simply genetics. The loose skin and excess fat detract from your confidence and self-esteem and you may find yourself wishing for a more toned and slim-looking appearance. An arm lift is an ideal cosmetic treatment for male patients who want to achieve a more sculpted and masculine appearance.
Who is a Good Candidate for an Arm Lift?
Men who experience excess skin in the upper arm area and are dissatisfied with the look of their arms can benefit from brachioplasty surgery. Patients must be in good overall health, non-smokers, and have realistic expectations of what arm lift surgery can accomplish (there has to be enough skin left to be able to accommodate the underlying muscle you have built up). The best way to determine your candidacy for male arm lift surgery at Tucson Plastic Surgery is through a private consultation with one of our expert surgeons in Arizona.
