Arm Lift in Istanbul with Op. Dr. Ali Şimşek

Reshape Your Arms. Restore Confidence. Achieve Expert Results.

What Is an Arm Lift?

An arm lift, also called brachioplasty, tightens the upper arms by removing sagging skin and fat.
It shapes the arms for a firmer, youthful contour after weight loss, aging, or genetics.
This surgery revitalizes your appearance and improves comfort when wearing sleeveless clothing.

Op. Dr. Ali Şimşek specializes in arm lift procedures in Istanbul, delivering smooth, natural results.

Who Should Consider an Arm Lift?

You may benefit from an arm lift if you:

• Have sagging skin or localized fat in the upper arms

• Are generally healthy and maintain stable weight

• Don’t smoke or can abstain before and after surgery

How Is an Arm Lift Performed?

The procedure uses general anesthesia (or local sedation when suitable).
It typically takes 2 to 3 hours, depending on contouring extent.

Surgical Steps:

1. Dr. Şimşek marks incision patterns on the inner arm or underarm.

2. He makes an incision based on excess skin and fat.

3. Excess skin and fat are removed and reshaped for firmness.

4. The arm is contoured to form a youthful, streamlined profile.

5. Incisions are closed with fine sutures and bandages applied.

6. Compression garments support healing and reduce swelling.

Most patients leave the clinic the same day, unless overnight stay is recommended.

Recovery Timeline After an Arm Lift

Recovery varies but generally follows this schedule:

First Week:

• Expect swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort

• Rest with arms elevated to reduce swelling

• Take prescribed medications for pain management

• Avoid lifting or strenuous arm movements

Weeks 2–4:

• Wear compression garments as directed

• Start light walking to boost circulation

• Resume most daily activities

• Avoid heavy lifting or arm exercises

Weeks 6–8:

• Swelling subsides and contour becomes clearer

• You can return to regular workouts

• Scars begin to fade but remain hidden in the inner arm

Months 3–6:

• Final contour and skin tone fully emerge

• Scarring continues to soften and blend

• You look and feel more confident in sleeveless looks

Dr. Şimşek monitors your recovery through regular follow‑ups.

Tips for a Smooth Recovery

To support healing:

• Wear compression garments day and night

• Avoid lifting or heavy arm activity

• Gently move arms to prevent stiffness

• Stay hydrated and eat nutritious meals

• Sleep with arms elevated using pillows

• Follow incision care guidelines to avoid infection

• Attend all follow-up appointments diligently

Following these steps leads to optimal results and recovery comfort.

Will I Have Visible Scars?

Scars from an arm lift are inevitable but intentionally placed.
They typically lie along the inner arm or underarm area.
Over time, these scars fade and become less noticeable.

Dr. Şimşek uses advanced suturing techniques and advises proper care to minimize visible scarring.
