Arm Contouring Surgery in Fairfax, VA

We offer a range of advanced procedures to address loose or sagging skin on the arms and help you achieve a more sculpted, youthful appearance. One of our most popular surgical options is the brachioplasty, or arm lift. During this procedure, our experienced, board-certified plastic surgeons remove excess skin and fat from the upper arms, resulting in a smoother, firmer contour. Brachioplasty is particularly effective for patients who have lost significant weight or developed skin laxity due to the natural aging process.
 
For those seeking less invasive solutions, we also provide non-surgical skin tightening treatments. These include state-of-the-art radiofrequency, ultrasound therapy, and laser procedures, all designed to stimulate collagen production and gradually improve skin firmness. While non-surgical treatments offer more subtle results and may require multiple sessions, they are an excellent option for individuals looking for minimal downtime.
 
Our team will work closely with you to determine the most appropriate approach based on your unique needs, the degree of skin laxity, and your aesthetic goals. During your personalized consultation at Victoria Plastic Surgery Center, we will discuss all available options, including potential risks, benefits, and recovery expectations, so you can make an informed decision about your care.

We understand that many patients are interested in achieving firmer, more youthful-looking arms without surgery. While surgical procedures like arm lift (brachioplasty) remain the gold standard for dramatic results, there are effective non-surgical options available for tightening arm skin—especially for those with mild to moderate laxity.
 
Non-Surgical Arm Skin Tightening Options: Our team offers a range of advanced, non-invasive treatments to help improve the appearance of loose or sagging skin on the arms:

• Radiofrequency (RF) Treatments: RF technology gently heats the deeper layers of the skin to stimulate collagen production, resulting in improved skin firmness and texture.
• Laser Skin Tightening: Laser therapies are designed to improve skin tone and elasticity with minimal downtime.

These treatments are performed by our highly trained medical professionals and may require a series of sessions for optimal results. During your consultation, we’ll recommend a customized treatment plan based on your goals and the current condition of your skin.
 
Lifestyle & At-Home Care: In addition to in-office procedures, we encourage our patients to support their results with regular strength training—particularly exercises targeting the triceps. Building muscle can enhance the overall contour of the arms. Maintaining a healthy, balanced diet and staying well-hydrated also supports skin health.
 
Topical treatments containing retinoids, collagen, or hyaluronic acid can be beneficial, though their effects are generally subtle compared to professional treatments.
 
When Is Surgery Recommended? For patients with significant sagging or excess skin, non-surgical options may not provide the desired level of improvement. In these cases, our board-certified plastic surgeons can discuss surgical procedures, such as brachioplasty, to achieve more dramatic results.

We offer a comprehensive range of cosmetic procedures designed to rejuvenate the appearance of aging arms. Whether you are concerned about sagging skin, loss of firmness, wrinkles, age spots, or excess fat, our expert team can help you achieve smoother, more youthful-looking arms with both surgical and non-surgical solutions.
 
One of the most effective surgical options is the arm lift (brachioplasty). This procedure removes excess skin and fat from the upper arms, resulting in a more toned and contoured appearance. Our board-certified plastic surgeon is highly experienced in performing arm lifts, often combining them with liposuction to precisely target and remove stubborn fat deposits for optimal results.
 
For patients seeking non-surgical approaches, we also provide advanced treatments such as laser therapies and intense pulsed light (IPL), which can reduce age spots, correct sun damage, and stimulate collagen production for improved skin tone and texture. We also offer the latest in radiofrequency to safely and effectively tighten loose skin by encouraging natural collagen remodeling.
 
Injectable solutions, including dermal fillers, are available at our center to restore lost volume and address the appearance of crepey skin. Additionally, microneedling, sometimes combined with platelet-rich plasma (PRP), is used to further support skin rejuvenation by boosting collagen and elastin production.
 
To complement these treatments, we recommend personalized skincare regimens featuring medical-grade topical products containing retinoids, antioxidants, and peptides to enhance and maintain your results.

We understand that the visible signs of aging on your arms can impact your confidence and overall satisfaction with your appearance. Over time, the skin on the arms can become thinner, less elastic, and more prone to wrinkles, sun spots, and sagging. Our expert team offers a comprehensive, personalized approach to help reverse these changes and restore a youthful contour to your arms.
 
Our specialists recommend starting with daily sun protection, as sun exposure is one of the leading causes of premature skin aging. We can guide you in choosing effective broad-spectrum sunscreens and medical-grade moisturizers containing hyaluronic acid, glycerin, or ceramides to enhance skin hydration and elasticity. For patients interested in topical solutions, we offer consultations for prescription retinoids and antioxidant serums with vitamin C or E, which can help stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture.
 
For those seeking more dramatic improvements, We provide a variety of in-office treatments tailored to your needs:

• Chemical Peels: Our medical-grade chemical peels exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin, reducing the appearance of age spots and smoothing rough areas.
• Laser Therapy: We utilize advanced laser technologies, such as fractional laser resurfacing, to target pigmentation and stimulate collagen, resulting in firmer, more even-toned skin.
• Microneedling: This minimally invasive procedure enhances collagen production and refines skin texture on the arms.
• Radiofrequency Skin Tightening: Non-surgical treatments like radiofrequency can improve skin laxity and firmness.
• Dermal Fillers & Fat Grafting: For patients experiencing significant volume loss, our surgeons are skilled in restoring youthful contours with dermal fillers or fat transfer techniques.
• Arm Lift Surgery (Brachioplasty): For individuals with excessive loose skin, our board-certified plastic surgeons offer arm lift procedures to remove excess tissue and sculpt a firmer, more toned appearance.
 
Beyond treatments, our team encourages a holistic approach to maintaining youthful arms. We offer guidance on healthy lifestyle choices, including exercise routines that focus on muscle toning and nutrition plans that support skin health from within.
