Quick summary: The arm lift (brachioplasty) cost in Turkey at AKM Clinic starts at £2,850 for a standard arm lift, against roughly £5,500 to £8,000 at a private UK clinic. An arm lift removes the loose, sagging skin of the upper arm — what's often called "bingo wings" — that exercise can't tighten. Every quote is all-inclusive: surgeon-led planning, your operation in a hospital, hotel, VIP transfers, medication and follow-up. UK pounds, fixed before you fly, with nothing added afterwards.
Arm Lift (Brachioplasty) Price Breakdown by Technique
Mini Arm Lift (Minimal Incision)
Removes loose skin near the armpit through a short, hidden scar — for limited upper-arm laxity.
Standard Brachioplasty
Removes excess skin and fat from the armpit down to the elbow — the full arm lift for significant sagging.
Extended Arm Lift
Continues the incision onto the chest wall to address laxity that reaches beyond the arm.
Lipo-Assisted Arm Lift
Combines liposuction with skin removal for smoother contouring and a safer, cleaner result.
L-Shaped Brachioplasty
Uses an L-shaped incision at the armpit to tackle severe sagging with a different scar pattern.
Awake Arm Lift
The arm lift under local anaesthesia rather than a general, for a quicker, gentler recovery.

Why is the Arm Lift (Brachioplasty) More Affordable in Turkey?
Many UK patients see a £2,850 arm lift and assume the saving must come from somewhere. It doesn't. The gap is economic — a favourable exchange rate, lower overheads and bundled logistics — with the surgery led by a consultant in a hospital using CE-marked materials.
The comparison is rarely like-for-like, either. A UK quote usually lists the surgeon's fee and then adds the anaesthetist, theatre and follow-ups, which is how a £5,500 headline climbs higher. Our price folds it all into one all-inclusive figure, fixed before you travel.
The honest part of an arm lift is the scar. An arm lift trades loose, hanging skin for a fine line along the inner arm — the unavoidable trade for removing that much skin — and we'll show you exactly where it sits before you decide. If your skin is firm and the issue is mainly fat, liposuction alone avoids the scar; the lift is for skin that hangs and won't retract, usually after major weight loss. We'd rather you knew that upfront than be surprised. That's our "rejuvenation, not alteration" approach, and your aftercare follows you home to the UK rather than ending at the airport.

Frequently Asked Questions About Arm Lift (Brachioplasty)
How much does an arm lift (brachioplasty) cost in Turkey?
At AKM Clinic it starts at £2,850 all-inclusive, with the technique confirmed at consultation. Privately in the UK it typically runs £5,500–£8,000.
Will an arm lift get rid of "bingo wings"?
Yes. It removes the loose, hanging skin and fat of the upper arm that exercise can't tighten.
Where is the scar, and how visible is it?
It runs along the inner arm from the armpit towards the elbow — the trade-off for removing the skin — and fades over 12 to 18 months.
Do I need an arm lift or just liposuction?
If it's mainly fat with firm skin, liposuction alone avoids the scar. Loose, hanging skin needs the lift.
Is an arm lift usually done after weight loss?
Often, yes. It's a common step after major weight loss, and can be done awake under local for suitable patients.
