Brachioplasty can be done using a variety of incision methods. The incision placement and length along the upper arm is dependent on the amount of skin to be removed, as well as location of the excessive skin within the upper arm. The incision line is most commonly placed in the inner arm or on the back of the arm, usually from axilla to elbow. Some patients may only require a minimal incision along the axilla. Depending on the patient’s specific condition and desired outcome, our surgeons evaluate and treat on an individual basis.
