Renew Your Upper Arms With an Arm Lift in Toledo

Feeling confident in sleeveless outfits or form-fitting tops often depends on how you perceive your arms. Over time, weight fluctuations, the natural aging process, or even genetic predispositions can cause your upper arms to develop loose skin and stubborn fatty tissue.

At pēkomd®, our board-certified surgeons prioritize patient-focused care, ensuring your procedure is thoughtfully customized to match your body's shape and personal goals. The end result goes beyond a refined arm profile—it enhances your self-assurance and daily comfort in every scenario.

What Is an Arm Lift?

An arm lift is a surgical procedure engineered to remove loose skin and unwanted fat deposits along the upper arm region, from the underarm down to the elbow. Despite consistent exercise or targeted strength training, certain areas may still appear lax once the skin loses elasticity. By excising excess tissue and, if needed, using liposuction, an arm lift can drastically improve the arm's overall definition. At our Toledo facility, we take a personalized approach—evaluating not only the volume and laxity present but also your unique body proportions and desired outcomes.

The primary aim is to restore a firmer, more streamlined look without compromising natural movement or comfort. Whether you're dealing with mild sagging or more extensive tissue concerns, we collaborate with you to select a strategy that aligns with both your physical needs and aesthetic preferences. Through this tailored method, we strive to achieve natural-looking enhancements that complement your entire physique.

Dr. Markov is one of the best microsurgeons in Southwest Ohio

I have had surgery is some of the top hospitals in Ohio and beyond. Dr. Markov is one of the best microsurgeons in Southwest Ohio, and the surrounding areas.His education, military background, and work experience speaks for itself. I have found him to be professional, highly-skilled, and he has excellent bedside manner. Dr. Markov treated me with respect, educated me about my options, and empowered me to decide what breast reconstruction option best for me. He approached my reconstruction surgery like Michelangelo to a painting. He was detailed oriented and cared about my final outcomes. I couldn't be happier with his performance. I highly recommend Dr. Markov for any cancer related or cosmetics surgery.

Mr. Dr. Fourman has been the best doctor hands down

Mr. Dr. Fourman has been the best doctor hands down so far that I have ever experienced in my life so far and I only have had my first office visit. He is so polite, listens and exsplained in full detail. He made me feel heard and he actually listened to me as his patient and did not belittle or make me feel like i was uneducated or wrong for my reasons to be vivisting his office. Thank you to Dr. Fourman and his wonderful staff members!

Dr. Straka is very personable, professional, and earned my trust right away!

My daughter first had some work done a few years ago with Dr. Straka. Of course she was/is a beautiful girl in every way, but this definitely enhanced things for her. I inherited the worst bags you could ever imagine. Getting older I thought let me do something for me! I scheduled a consult and I am truly sad that I had not gone sooner.

Dr. Straka is very personable, professional, and earned my trust right away! I am only 10 days post op and I love my new look already! Cristina has been very attentive from day one. I am still being checked on today. Dr. Straka is doing great things at pekomd! I highly recommend him to anyone!!!!!!! He gets a 100 stars

I would say Dr. Markov is a bit of a perfectionist.

After learning I had breast cancer a second time in 2023 I opted to have a bilateral mastectomy with a DIEP flap reconstruction. I looked into 3 different doctors and while I am sure they are all very capable, I chose Dr. Markov. He was straight forward and to the point and he was local. I really liked his approach and he made me feel very comfortable. Today I had my 4 week post op appointment from the final phase of the reconstruction and I am thrilled with the results. I feel and look like myself again. Honestly they look better than they did before my mastectomy. I would say Dr. Markov is a bit of a perfectionist. The only thing left, if I opt to do this, is the tattooing. I am not sure if I am going to do that just yet, because they already look so good. Anyhow, I would 100 % recommend Dr. Markov.

Wish I had done this 10 years sooner.

Don't put it off any longer!
If you have thought about weight-loss surgery, Dr. Fourman is the Dr. you need to see! He's very personable, understands and is caring.I followed all the pre op instructions, did out patient, in the morning, and was up and moving around very well by that evening. He's staff is wonderful too. There are no scary front desk reception. Everyone there knows what your going through. Wish I had done this 10 years sooner. Like I said...Don't put it off for another year!

I couldn't be more pleased with my experience with Dr. Straka and Kaleigh! Dr. Straka took the time to thoroughly explain my condition, answer all my questions, and walk me through the entire procedure.

What to Expect During Your Arm Lift in Toledo at pēkomd

Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation, where our board-certified surgeons in Toledo examine your arms' structure, discuss your health background, and clarify your personal goals. Based on this assessment, we may propose a traditional brachioplasty if you exhibit significant skin laxity, or suggest a crescent lift in your armpit for more subtle changes. In certain scenarios, combining arm lift techniques with liposuction yields optimal results. On the day of the procedure, you'll arrive at our accredited surgical facility, where we prioritize patient comfort and safety at every stage.

General anesthesia is commonly used so you can rest assured you'll remain relaxed and pain-free. The surgeon then makes incisions along targeted areas—typically discreetly placed on the underside of the arm—to remove excess skin and, if necessary, perform liposuction to eliminate stubborn fat deposits. The skin is then re-draped and sutured to form a smoother, sleeker upper arm contour. Once the surgery is complete, you'll spend time in a monitored recovery space before heading home with post-operative guidelines designed to nurture your healing process.

Are You an Ideal Candidate for an Arm Lift in Toledo?

An arm lift is frequently considered by adults who maintain a stable weight yet have persistent flabbiness or sagging in the upper arms. Although muscle toning through exercise plays a pivotal role in shaping the arms, significant skin laxity often cannot be resolved through fitness alone. A brachioplasty can drastically improve appearance and comfort, but it's not a tool for major weight loss or body reshaping outside the upper arm. Hence, it's essential that you have realistic expectations regarding the changes an arm lift can offer.

During your consultation at pēkomd's Toledo office, we'll conduct a thorough exam and discuss your overall health history. Suitable candidates include those who are in good physical health, non-smokers (or willing to quit temporarily), and who exhibit emotional readiness for a surgical intervention. This ensures that the decision to have an arm lift is both safe and capable of meeting your projected outcomes.

Arm Lift Frequently Asked Questions

Ready to embrace more streamlined, confident arms? Contact pēkomd® now to book your consultation for an arm lift in Toledo and discover how our dedicated, patient-first care can elevate your comfort and daily life.

Will an arm lift leave scars?

Yes. While scarring is expected, our surgeons place incisions in discreet areas on the underside of the arm to minimize visibility. Over time, scars generally fade when proper aftercare is followed.

How soon can I return to normal activities?

Most individuals can resume desk work or light tasks within two weeks, but more strenuous activities require at least four to six weeks for a full return.

Can I combine an arm lift with other procedures?

Yes. Many people choose to integrate an arm lift with operations like a tummy tuck or breast lift, especially if they seek more comprehensive body improvements.

Is the procedure painful?

Discomfort varies, but general anesthesia ensures a pain-free experience during the operation. Post-operative soreness can be managed effectively with pain relievers.

Do results last permanently?

Arm lift results are enduring, especially if you maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. However, the natural aging process still applies, and minor changes over time are possible.
