The Frustration of Flabby Arms
You’ve tried the exercises, the diets, the creams. You may have even considered quick fixes like Botox, hoping for a miracle. But when it comes to getting toned arms, the answer isn’t always easy.
Traditional methods like Pilates or squats can target specific muscle groups, but they can’t eliminate excess skin. Botox, while effective for facial wrinkles, isn’t designed to address the underlying issues of sagging skin and fat in the arms.
That’s where CNY Cosmetic & Reconstructive Surgery comes in. We offer a personalized approach to arm contouring that goes beyond temporary fixes.
Our board-certified plastic surgeons, Dr. Anthony Deboni and Dr. Gregory Baum, specialize in arm lift surgery (brachioplasty), a procedure designed to reshape your upper arms by removing excess skin and fat, leaving you with smoother, more toned contours.
Brachioplasty Arm Lift
An arm lift can be a life-changing procedure for those struggling with:
- Loose, sagging skin on the upper arms, often referred to as “bat wings”
- Excess fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise
- A lack of definition in the upper arm area, even after weight loss
Imagine slipping into that sleeveless dress without a second thought, feeling confident and beautiful in your own skin. An arm lift can help you reclaim your confidence and embrace a more youthful silhouette.
How Arm Lift Works
During an arm lift procedure, our skilled surgeons make carefully placed incisions to minimize visible scarring. These incisions are typically made:
- From the underarm down to the elbow, allowing for effective removal of excess tissue while concealing scars within natural creases and where mostly hidden along the inner arm.
- For individuals with milder sagging, we may recommend a short-scar lift, which uses smaller incisions in your armpit for a less invasive approach.
We use advanced surgical techniques to reshape the underlying tissues, and remove excess skin and fat. The result is smoother, more toned arms that complement your overall physique.

Feeling like a faded version of yourself? It’s time to reclaim your youthful glow and rediscover the confident person within.
Your Arm Lift Journey
We believe that personalized care is the foundation for exceptional results. Your arm lift journey at CNY Cosmetic & Reconstructive Surgery begins with a comprehensive consultation where we will:
- Listen attentively to your concerns and understand your aesthetic goals.
- Evaluate your skin elasticity, muscle tone, and overall health to determine the best surgical approach.
- Discuss the different arm lift techniques available, including the mini arm lift option.
- Answer all your questions and address any concerns you may have, ensuring you feel informed and confident in your decision.
- Develop a personalized treatment plan that aligns with your unique needs and desired outcomes.
We will guide you through every step of the process, from pre-operative preparation to post-operative care, ensuring a smooth and comfortable experience.
Recovery Timeline and Expectations
The recovery timeline for arm lift surgery typically lasts 10-14 days. During this period, you can expect some swelling and bruising, which is a normal part of the healing process.
We will provide you with detailed post-operative instructions to manage discomfort and minimize swelling. These may include:
- Wearing a compression garment to support the treated area and reduce swelling.
- Taking prescribed medications for pain management and to prevent infection.
- Keeping the incisions clean and dry to promote healing.
- Gradually increasing your activity levels as directed by your surgeon.
Most patients can resume light activities within a week and return to work within 2-3 weeks. However, strenuous activities such as heavy lifting or intense exercise should be avoided for at least one month to allow for proper healing.
The final shape and feel of your arms will continue to improve over time, with the most noticeable results becoming evident around three months after surgery.
