Arm Lift in Draper, UT

As we age or undergo significant weight loss, many of us may encounter the challenge of dealing with sagging skin. At Howland Plastic Surgery, we provide a surgical solution known as arm lift surgery or brachioplasty, specifically designed for individuals who find it difficult to achieve firmer, toned arms through just diet and exercise. This condition is often manifested as excess skin stretching from the elbow to the upper arm and is common among both women and men who are aging or who have experienced considerable weight reduction. Arm lift surgery addresses and eliminates these drooping "bat wings," restoring a more youthful and contoured appearance to your arms. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Nicholas K. Howland specializes in procedures that enhance skin tightness and reduce unwanted fat. To explore how an arm lift could transform the appearance of your arms, we invite you to schedule a consultation at our Draper, UT practice.

Typically, arm lift surgery will be performed in an outpatient setting and is usually done with the patient under general anesthesia and may take several hours to finish. The loose skin will be surgically excised starting at the elbow and continuing to the underarm. The incision will be placed to be as concealed as possible, but it will leave a visible scar. If liposuction is wanted to eliminate stubborn fatty deposits, this will be completed as well. After the skin is pulled taut, it will be stitched back into place. You will have to care for the incisions by keeping them sanitized, covered, and in compression garments.

Undergoing arm lift surgery can be a satisfying experience for someone who wants to enhance the appearance of their upper arms. This procedure is not only about aesthetic improvement but also about boosting self-confidence and comfort in one's skin. Opting for an arm lift at Howland Plastic Surgery in Draper, UT results in the following benefits:

  • Removes excess skin caused by dramatic weight loss or aging
  • Good for problem areas that seem to be stubborn despite exercise or healthy eating
  • Greater self-esteem and less anxiety when picking out clothing
  • Reduces friction, chafing, and discomfort in the chest and arm areas

Dr. Howland is wonderful and was an absolute pleasure to work with. I consulted with another 5 star Top plastic surgeon but chose Dr. Howland because he was able to treat everything I wanted in one procedure and did an INCREDIBLE job as well as his warm disposition! I am so grateful. I always wanted a breast reduction and finally am in a size i am so happy with! They look AMAZING! He is very personable, is down to earth and has wonderful bedside manner. This is coming from a nurse! He listened to all of my concerns and took great care me. I don't typically do reviews unless I am compelled however I just had to give him the review that he deserves. These procedures are not a joke and they should be treated in kind. He was great! His staff is wonderful and responsive and there around the clock if you need them. I would recommend him 1000x over!

AMAZING!!! I interviewed 4 Plastic Surgeons before I met with Dr Howland and the minute I met him I knew he was my Surgeon. Best decision I could have made. My body reacted poorly to my Surgery...nothing to do with Dr Howland. His whole Office jumped in. The Nurses are TOP NOTCH...Jenn my girl..Avery who came to the Hospital to assist with a procedure...and everyone else even if not mentioned by name. Melissa at the Front Desk is like a Girlfriend. They have the best formula for choosing a Team. The other Plastic Surgeons that came to help...and called to check up on me. Dr Howland is always available by cell phone. No matter where or what he is doing Despite what happened I LOVE my results..BETTER than I had dreamed...would go back here for anything else, and refer anyone I know here!!! You feel like Family here...not a Patient Thank You to Everyone Lorrie Tomac

Dr Nick Howland was able to give me the trust I need it to go through a rough surgery for my body. I love the results i love the confidence it gave me back, his staff treated me like a queen. His incisions were perfect and you hardly can tell the incisions since it looks like a hair line. very impressive with his skills for sculpting. I totally will recommend him and use him again.
