Arm Lift Surgery Columbus, Ohio
Achieve Toned & Contoured Arms
After Weight Loss
The upper arms tend to accumulate excess fat and redundant skin over time, creating “bat wings” that are especially apparent with the arms raised. Arm lift surgery (also called a “Brachioplasty,”) may be the ideal solution for you if your arms seem disproportional or the skin is saggy or dimpled.
Brachioplasty: A Smoother & More Sculpted Appearance
You may be a candidate for a Brachioplasty if the appearance of your arms improves when you pinch the extra skin and fat together. By creating a sleeker, more toned contour, an arm lift can help you feel more comfortable in tighter clothes and more confident when showing off your arms in a short-sleeved shirt or tank top. During your consultation, our team will provide the best options available and help you choose the long-term solution that best suits your goals and comfort level.
Why Our Patients Choose Arm Lift Surgery
- Toned Contours: Arm lift surgery directly addresses loose or sagging skin in the upper arms, creating a smoother and more toned appearance. By removing the excess skin and fat, this procedure can help you achieve arms that look slimmer and more defined.
- Improved Proportions: If you have disproportionate arms due to weight loss or genetics, arm lift surgery can help create a more balanced and symmetrical appearance. Dr. Donaldson or Dr. Sieffert will customize the procedure to your goals, ensuring that your arms complement the rest of your body contours.
- Enhanced Definition: This procedure can enhance the definition of your arms by eliminating excess fat and skin that may obscure the underlying muscle tone. This can provide you with a more sculpted and athletic-looking arm contour.
- Reduced Recovery Times: Our surgeons treat delicate tissue responsibly and take a comprehensive approach to each procedure they perform, with an emphasis on patient safety, minimal downtime and a more comfortable experience.

Dr. Jeffrey Donaldson and Dr. Michelle Sieffert perform arm lift as same-day surgery under general anesthesia. They place the incisions more toward the back of the arm or more toward the inside according to your activities, clothing habits and personal preferences. The arm lift is performed through short incisions that extend from the skin above the elbow up into the underarm.
-
Compression garments are worn to reduce swelling and encourage proper skin contouring after surgery. Pain medication is given before, during and after surgery so you are always as comfortable as possible. Bruising and swelling lasts 2-4 weeks, and you may be able to resume strenuous activities in 4-6 weeks.
