The Patient's Goals
Approaching us as a highly active 65-year-old international patient, she sought a targeted solution for substantial brachial ptosis (sagging upper arm skin) alongside stubborn, localised fat deposits. She candidly shared her exasperation with prominent “bat wings” that made her arms feel physically encumbered, significantly dictating her wardrobe choices—particularly when considering sleeveless tops or holiday dresses.
Her overarching ambition was to undergo a subtle body rejuvenation. She desired a beautifully contoured, naturally leaner profile that truly reflected her vibrant energy levels, whilst guaranteeing the final outcome never looked ‘overdone’ or artificial, prioritising both aesthetic elegance and functional comfort.
Surgeon's Expert Approach
To effectively resolve the severe skin laxity evident in the arm lift before and after portfolio, Dr Akif expertly executed a comprehensive Brachioplasty (Full Arm Lift).
- Surgical Technique: A meticulously calculated longitudinal incision was placed along the inner arm, facilitating substantial tissue excision. This targeted technique successfully removes the burdensome skin and fat extending from the axilla (armpit) down to the elbow, completely avoiding an ‘over-resected’ appearance.
- Contouring: Vaser Liposuction was smartly utilised as a complementary tool to sculpt the deeper subcutaneous fat layers. This guarantees a beautifully smooth, natural-looking transition between the shoulder and the forearm, which is especially essential for mature skin.
- Advanced Recovery Programme: To guarantee exceptional healing of the arm lift scars, the patient completed our flight-ready post-operative regimen. Incorporating Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) and LLLT scar healing therapy, this bespoke aftercare deeply oxygenates tissues and drastically accelerates cellular repair.
Results & Visual Analysis: Subtle Arm Rejuvenation
The brachioplasty arm lift before and after images showcase a wonderfully restorative and natural structural reset:
- Elimination of Skin Laxity: The heavy, drooping tissue that previously masked her natural tricep definition in the “Before” photos has vanished. The “After” state exhibits a gorgeously firm, taut contour that never looks artificial.
- Refined Silhouette: Her arms now trace a clean, subtly athletic line from the shoulder down to the elbow, entirely banishing the cumbersome, “weighted” look from the posterior region.
- Incision Placement: Although a short scar arm lift or mini arm lift would not provide the necessary correction for this 65-year-old patient, Dr Akif strategically concealed the full incision along the inner arm. This ensures it remains exceptionally discreet during everyday natural movements.

Had a deep plane facelift and lower eyelid procedure at AKM Clinic 7 months ago. The results are fantastic - very subtle and natural. I didn’t expect the entire experience to be so comfortable. Hande managed everything and kept in contact even after I returned to USA. I’m beyond pleased with the outcome and the care I received. Would do it again in a heartbeat!
