What is a mini arm lift?

A mini arm lift, also known as a minimal incision brachioplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure aimed at improving the appearance of the upper arms. It’s designed for individuals who have a moderate amount of loose skin and excess fat in the area between the underarm and the elbow. The procedure is less invasive than a traditional arm lift (brachioplasty) and is best suited for those who don’t require extensive skin removal.

In a mini arm lift, the surgeon makes smaller incisions, usually hidden in the underarm area, to remove excess skin and fat. This results in a more toned and contoured appearance of the arms. The procedure typically involves less scarring and a shorter recovery time compared to a full arm lift.

It’s important for anyone considering a mini arm lift to have realistic expectations and to discuss their goals and options with a qualified plastic surgeon. The surgeon can assess whether a mini arm lift is appropriate or if a full arm lift might be more beneficial based on the individual’s specific condition and aesthetic goals.
