Arm Lift (Brachioplasty) Before & After in Colorado | Dr. Francesco Campanile | Denver

View the before-and-after results of this arm lift (brachioplasty) performed by Dr. Francesco Campanile, a board-certified plastic surgeon in Denver, Colorado specializing in body contouring after weight loss. This patient sought treatment after significant weight loss left her with loose, excess skin and residual fullness in the upper arms that could not be improved with exercise or strength training alone.

Although she was proud of her transformation, stretched skin often does not regain elasticity after major weight changes. For many patients, this persistent skin laxity can limit confidence in sleeveless clothing and make it difficult to fully enjoy their weight-loss results.

Customized Arm Lift Surgery in Colorado

Following a detailed consultation, Dr. Campanile recommended a customized brachioplasty to remove excess skin and improve the overall contour of the upper arms. During an arm lift procedure, redundant skin and underlying tissue are carefully removed, and the remaining skin is reshaped to create a smoother, tighter, and more proportionate arm appearance.

Advanced Arm Lift Technique and Scar Placement

One of the most common concerns for patients considering arm lift surgery in Colorado is scar visibility. Traditional brachioplasty techniques often place the scar along the inner bicep, where it can be more noticeable in daily activities.

Dr. Campanile uses a refined surgical approach that positions the final scar along the backside and base of the arm whenever appropriate. This strategic placement helps make the scar less visible in natural arm positions and easier to conceal. His meticulous approach to surgical planning and closure is designed to support smooth healing and a refined, natural-looking outcome.
