The Patient's Goals
This 65-year-old international patient presented with a clearly defined concern: marked brachial ptosis and localized upper-arm fat. The issue centred on posterior arm heaviness, visible laxity, and the bat-wing effect that can limit clothing comfort. It is a concern many Canadian patients recognize when upper-arm laxity starts affecting fit and movement. This arm lift before after 65 case used bat-wing correction surgery to restore a firmer shoulder-to-elbow line without over-tightening the arm’s natural contour.
Surgeon's Expert Approach
We approached this arm lift with three goals: reduce redundant skin, refine the localized adipose layer, and maintain a functional shoulder-to-forearm transition.
- VASER lipo contour refinement: We used VASER as an adjunct to smooth the subcutaneous fat layer and improve the transition between the shoulder and forearm.
- Full brachioplasty design: We planned a longitudinal inner-arm incision to address axilla-to-elbow laxity, since a short-scar approach would not have matched the correction required.
- Evidence-based recovery technologies: The patient completed our recovery support with HBOT and LLLT to assist tissue oxygenation, cellular repair, and early scar maturation.

I am beyond grateful I went with AKM Clinic for my deep plane face and neck lift, upper eyelid, and co2 laser. Dr. Akif has magic hands and my results are truly incredible! I came from the US and assistant Emine was the best in assuring every detail was coordinated and communicated with me beyond my expectations every step of the way. 10 out of 10 to the entire team! I couldn’t be more pleased!

I had a face, neck and arm lift at AKM. I’m just over 4 weeks post and couldn’t be happier with the results. The entire experience was wonderful! My coordinator, Khadija made me feel comfortable from beginning to end! I highly recommend AKM and will definitely go back for other procedures!
