Brachioplasty: A brachioplasty is the operation to remove excess skin from the upper arms. It involves removing the skin but leaves a scar.

Diet and Exercise: If its a weight loss issue. If it's flabby skin, surgical excision with a "brachioplasty" surgery would be appropriate. If it's minor excess skin and fat, laser assisted liposuction also referred to as smart lipo can aid in skin retraction.
