The Most Common Reasons Patients Choose Arm Lift Surgery

Woman waking up in bed and stretching her arms out in a sleeveless top It is common to feel unhappy with the way your upper arms look, especially after weight loss or as skin naturally loses elasticity. 

At West Houston Plastic Surgery, board-certified surgeons Dr. Alfonso Barrera and Dr. Eric Ruff bring extensive training and experience to patients seeking advanced cosmetic care. The practice has earned a reputation in Houston for personalized treatment, safety, and natural results. 

From body contouring procedures like arm lifts to a wide range of aesthetic surgeries, Dr. Barrerra and Dr. Ruff combine surgical skill with a patient-first approach to help you feel better about your appearance.

Improved Confidence and Appearance

Loose or sagging skin on the upper arms can make you feel self-conscious, especially in sleeveless tops or fitted clothing. You may even catch yourself avoiding certain outfits or positions because you do not want the extra skin to show. 

An arm lift removes that tissue and creates a smoother contour so you can wear what you like without second-guessing how your arms look.

After Weight Loss

Losing weight takes commitment, but even after reaching your goals, the skin on your arms may not shrink back. That leftover skin can hide the progress you worked so hard to achieve. 

An arm lift helps your arms reflect your true results and is a common next step for women and men after major weight loss.

Aging and Skin Elasticity

As you age, your skin naturally loses firmness. No matter how many arm exercises you do, stretched skin cannot tighten on its own. You may have toned muscles underneath, but the loose skin covers them up. Arm lift surgery addresses what exercise and diet cannot, restoring a more youthful look.

Comfort and Function

Extra arm skin can also be uncomfortable. It may rub during movement, make exercise less enjoyable, or cause irritation. By removing it, an arm lift makes daily activities easier.
