Fat Arm Reduction in Navi Mumbai
For many, stubborn upper arm fat can be a frustrating problem, especially when traditional methods like diet and exercise don’t yield the desired results. If you’re struggling with flabby arms and want a more defined, sculpted look, fat arm reduction (brachioplasty), could be the solution you’ve been searching for.
At Seraphic Aesthetics, led by Dr. Lukesh Patil, we offer expert fat arm reduction procedures in Navi Mumbai that can reshape and tone your arms for a more contoured appearance. Whether you need a mini arm tuck or a full brachioplasty, our experienced team will work with you to achieve stunning, natural- looking results.
Fat arm reduction, or arm lift (brachioplasty), is a cosmetic procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the upper arms, leaving behind a more toned and defined appearance. If diet and exercise haven't given you the results you're looking for, this procedure might be the answer. The process involves small incisions, typically made in the armpit or along the inner arm, to remove unwanted skin and fat. In some cases, liposuction is used for enhanced results.
Liposuction: Best for patients with stubborn fat but tight skin.
Brachioplasty: The better option for individuals with loose, sagging skin. Liposuction alone can’t tighten loose skin, which is where brachioplasty excels.
The ideal arm lift procedure depends on the amount of skin and fat you want to remove:
Mini Arm Tuck (Axillary Brachioplasty): This option is perfect for those with excess skin limited to the upper armpit, leaving minimal scarring.
Standard Brachioplasty: For those with sagging skin running from the armpit to the elbow, this procedure removes all excess skin, leaving your arms smooth and toned.
An arm lift or fat arm reduction surgery is best suited for individuals who:
Have Loose Skin: Noticeable sagging in the upper arms, often referred to as “bat wings”.
Experienced Weight Loss: Have excess skin due to significant weight loss.
Are in Good Health: Free from medical conditions that could complicate surgery.
Maintain Stable Weight: Have a consistent weight, as fluctuations can impact results.
Have Realistic Expectations: Understand outcomes depending on factors like skin elasticity and scarring.
Commit to Aftercare: Are prepared to follow post-op care, including wound care and activity limits.
The procedure begins with marking the treatment areas while you’re standing or sitting. After anaesthesia is administered, incisions are made on the inner arm to remove excess skin and fat. The remaining skin is tightened, sutured, and sometimes supported by a temporary drain. The surgery takes about three hours, and most patients go home the same day.
As with any surgery, some scarring is normal, but the scars are placed as discreetly as possible:
Mini Arm Tuck: A small, semi-circular scar hidden in the armpit.
Standard Brachioplasty: A scar that runs from the armpit to the elbow.
After surgery, patients wear a compression garment to aid healing. Swelling peaks within 2-3 days but resolves over time. Most people:
Return to work in 1 week (Ideally in 3-4 days)
Resume light exercise in 2 weeks
Fully recover within 4 weeks, including strenuous activities
Fat arm reduction surgery can significantly enhance the appearance of your arms, offering benefits like:
Smoother, More Defined Arms: Say goodbye to sagging skin and hello to toned arms.
Tighter Skin: Enjoy firmer, tighter arms that feel great to touch.
Better Body Proportions: Your arms will harmonize beautifully with the rest of your body.
Confidence Boost: Show off your toned arms in outfits of your choice.
The cost of fat arm reduction surgery depends on several factors, including the complexity of the procedure, the surgeon's experience, and the type of anaesthesia used. Additional treatments, such as liposuction, the quality of the facility, and post-surgery care can also affect the total price.

There is no specific age limit for fat arm reduction surgery. However, it is generally performed on individuals who are at least 18 years old and have accumulated localised fat in their arms but are otherwise healthy. Candidates should be in good overall health, have realistic expectations about the procedure, and understand the potential outcomes.
The surgery typically takes 1-3 hours to complete, depending on the extent of the procedure and the individual's specific needs. In some cases, the surgery may take longer if additional procedures, such as liposuction, are performed simultaneously.
The results of the fat arm reduction procedure remain stable, but they are not permanent. Proper maintenance is important to prevent further sagging and maintain the desired appearance.
The recovery time for arm lift surgery typically takes around 4 weeks, during which time patients may experience swelling, bruising, and discomfort. Full results from the surgery may take 6-12 months to become visible, as the body needs time to fully heal and settle into its new shape.
Yes, there will be scarring from arm lift surgery, but it is usually minimal and hidden in the armpit or along the arm. The scars are typically small and fade over time, becoming less noticeable as the body heals and the skin regains its natural elasticity.
