Say goodbye to sagging "bat wings" with a custom reshaping procedure designed to restore confidence and comfort.
If you’ve lost a significant amount of weight or noticed your upper arms becoming looser with age, an arm lift—also known as brachioplasty—can help you achieve a firmer, smoother silhouette. Tampa is home to board-certified plastic surgeons who specialize in techniques that minimize visible scarring and maximize contour improvement.
Excess skin and stubborn fat in the upper arms can be difficult to improve with exercise alone. A brachioplasty surgically removes this loose skin and may include liposuction to further sculpt the area. Tampa patients often choose this procedure to complete their weight loss journey or simply feel more confident in sleeveless clothing. Many local clinics offer both full and mini arm lifts, depending on the amount of excess skin.
Removes sagging skin and fat between the elbow and armpit Typically performed under general anesthesia Stitches are usually removed in 1–2 weeks Compression garments are worn for 2–4 weeks Light activity resumes within days; full workouts after 4 weeks
The average cost of an arm lift in Tampa ranges from $6,876 to $10,314, depending on the complexity of your procedure and whether lipo is included. Most patients need about 2–3 weeks of downtime before resuming daily activities, with visible swelling and tightness gradually subsiding.
