Main Information

There are few absolute medical reasons why you should not undergo an arm lift as long as you are in good general health and have realistic expectations of this procedure.
This surgery is not suitable after a mastectomy (breast removal) or operations in the axilla lymph nodes. Those with multiple infections of the sweat glands may also not be candidates for brachioplasty. This is because there may be problems with draining the fluids from your arms as a result of your previous surgery. If you were to have another operation, your arms could swell very badly and this may be permanent. 
An upper arm lift, however, is not an alternative to losing weight. In fact, many surgeons will suggest an alternative to surgery for patients who are more than 15 percent over their ideal body weight.
Also, if you are considering losing weight, you should wait until after your target weight is met before having this operation. You may need more surgery to remove the excess skin after you have lost the desired weight. This would mean that your first operation would have been a complete waste of time! 
If you have experienced healing problems with any past surgical treatments or if you are prone to keloid (red, angry, raised) scars, your surgeon may not recommend an arm lift or may advise you that your scars could be very visible and raised.
