Sagging skin can develop underneath the upper arm, creating what some call “bat wings.” This sagging skin is an unwanted symptom of aging, weight fluctuations and genetics. Fortunately, there is brachioplasty. Brachioplasty is a cosmetic procedure that reduces sagging around the arms for a slimmer profile.
Brachioplasty is a surgical procedure that employs liposuction and surgery to recontour the profile of the upper arms. Liposuction is typically used to remove excess fat that causes drooping under the arms. Stretched skin is removed by an incision along the backside of the underarm. The procedure is tailored to the patient’s body type and aesthetic goals.
Consult with Dr. Troy Andreasen, a board-certified plastic surgeon, to learn more about brachioplasty.
