Arm
reduction, also known as brachioplasty,
is an operation to reduce the amount
of loose skin on the upper arm,
often referred to as 'bingo wings
' or 'bat wings'. This is most common
after substantial weight loss which
may result in loose, sagging skin
that can't be improved through regular
physical activity and a healthy
balanced diet.

Procedure:
During the operation, Dr. Viral Desai makes
cuts on the inner and under surfaces of your
arm, sometimes from the armpit to as low as
the elbow. Excess skin and fat are removed
and the remaining skin is stretched and stitched
back together. The operation generally results
in slimmer, smoother upper arms. However,
there will be visible scarring that may extend
from the armpit to the elbow and Dr.Viral
Desai will discuss this with you prior to
your operation.
The operation is usually performed under a
general anaesthetic and you may need to stay
in hospital overnight. You'll also need to
plan time off work so that you can relax and
recover at home.
All operations carry risks as well as benefits.
The chance of complications depends on the
type of operation and other factors such as
your general health. Dr. Viral Desai will
explain how the risks apply to you.
