Frequently Asked Questions About Arm Lift (Brachioplasty)
Everything you need to know about the cost, process, and inclusions for your journey to Istanbul.
How much does an arm lift cost in Turkey compared to Canada?
A standard arm lift at AKM Clinic is CAD $5,200 all-inclusive, and a mini arm lift is CAD $4,800. In Canada, brachioplasty typically costs CAD $10,000–$13,000 privately and is not covered by provincial health plans, since it is cosmetic. Our price already includes the hospital, hotel, transfers and aftercare.
Will I have a long, visible scar after an arm lift?
A standard brachioplasty leaves a scar along the inner arm from armpit to elbow, which is the trade-off for removing significant loose skin. If your laxity is limited to the upper arm, a mini arm lift (CAD $4,800) uses a short scar hidden in the armpit. We include Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) to support scar healing.
I have loose skin after weight loss — is an arm lift right for me?
Yes. Brachioplasty is one of the most common procedures after major weight loss, when stretched skin no longer retracts. If you also have stubborn arm fat, a lipo-assisted arm lift (CAD $5,450) removes both. Being at a stable weight before surgery gives the best, lasting result.
Can I combine an arm lift with a thigh lift or other procedures?
Yes, and many post-weight-loss patients do. Combining an arm lift with a thigh lift or breast surgery in one operation shares a single anesthesia and recovery, which is more cost-effective than separate trips from Canada. Ask your coordinator about a combined body-contouring package built around your CAD $5,200 base.
Is an awake arm lift available, and what does the price include?
Yes. An awake arm lift under local anesthesia (CAD $5,200) avoids general anesthesia and speeds early recovery for suitable patients. Every option covers surgery, anesthesia, accommodation, private VIP transfers, the compression garment, medications and virtual follow-up, with no separate facility charges added in Istanbul.
