Brachioplasty : Thanfks for your inquiry. If you have a large amount of loose skin that is often associated wih massive weight loss, greater than 50 pounds, brachioplasty (arm lift) can be performed. For mild laxity, a procedure called smartliposuction which uses lasers to tighten the skin and suction to remove fat can be a good choice. Both procedures are best performed by a board certified plastic surgeon.
