Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery) in Dubai
“Wave goodbye to sagging skin — literally.”
If excess, sagging skin on your upper arms makes you self-conscious about wearing short sleeves, an arm lift (brachioplasty) in Dubai can help. SurgeryDubai connects you with SafePlast-certified surgeons who specialize in discreet incision placement for smooth, toned arms.
A standard brachioplasty removes excess skin from the armpit to the elbow with an incision on the inner arm. A mini arm lift targets mild laxity near the armpit with a shorter incision. An extended arm lift addresses excess skin that continues onto the chest wall. Liposuction is often combined for optimal contouring. Your surgeon recommends the best approach based on your skin quality.
Smooth, firm upper arms that look great in sleeveless clothing.
Incisions placed on the inner arm — hidden when arms are at your sides.
Liposuction often added for enhanced contouring of stubborn fat deposits.
Removed skin does not return. Results are long-lasting with stable weight.
Arm lift surgery is performed under general anesthesia. Incisions are placed on the inner arm, extending from the elbow to the armpit (length depends on skin excess). Underlying tissue is tightened, excess skin is removed, and the remaining skin is smoothed over the new contour. Liposuction may be combined to address stubborn fat. The procedure takes 1–3 hours.
Days 1–3: Compression sleeves worn. Swelling and soreness. Arms kept elevated.
Days 4–14: Light daily activities. Sutures removed at 10–14 days.
Weeks 3–6: Compression continues. Light upper body movement. No heavy lifting.
Weeks 8–12: Full activity. Scars fading. Final contour visible.
Performed under general anesthesia. The surgeon makes an incision on the inner arm, removes excess skin and fat, and tightens the remaining tissue for a smooth contour. Liposuction may be used to refine the shape. The incision is closed with layered sutures. The procedure takes 1.5–3 hours.



The incision runs along the inner arm, which is naturally hidden when your arms are at your sides. While the scar never completely disappears, it fades significantly over 12–18 months and becomes a thin, pale line.
Yes. Arm lifts are commonly combined with other body contouring procedures as part of post-weight-loss surgery or a Mommy Makeover. Your surgeon will advise on safe combinations.
Avoid upper body exercises for 6 weeks. Light cardio (walking, stationary bike) can resume at 2 weeks. Your surgeon will clear you for progressive resistance training at your follow-up.
No. While post-weight-loss patients are common candidates, arm lifts also address age-related skin laxity and genetic predisposition to sagging upper arms.
How much does an arm lift cost?
Pricing depends on the extent of skin removal and whether liposuction is combined. Your matched surgeon provides a detailed quote during consultation.
