Arm Lift Gallery Patient 127580

Age:  Undisclosed

Gender:  Female

This patient underwent a brachioplasty following significant weight loss to remove excess upper-arm skin and restore a smoother, more contoured arm shape. After major weight changes, the skin can lose elasticity and create pronounced laxity that cannot be corrected with liposuction alone — making skin excision essential for a refined result.One of the biggest concerns for post-weight-loss patients is the appearance of the arm-lift incision — including its placement, length, and whether the skin along the scar looks “pinched” or irregular. Dr. Vinyard carefully mapped her incision along the natural inner-arm contour, allowing it to sit in a clean, straight line that remains discreet when the arms are at rest.Despite the larger amount of redundant skin that needed to be removed, the closure is smooth and uniform, avoiding the bunching, rippling, or indentation that many patients fear. The result is a dramatically firmer, more sculpted upper arm with a well-positioned, well-healed incision that reflects both precision and artistry.
