Arm Lift (Brachioplasty) in Phoenix, AZ

Understanding Upper Arm Contouring

Dr. John Bass recognizes that upper arm appearance can significantly impact personal confidence. Many individuals, particularly women, struggle with excess fat and loose skin in the upper arm region that remains resistant to exercise and diet.

Targeting Excess Upper Arm Skin and Fat

Despite consistent exercise and healthy lifestyle choices, reducing upper arm fullness can be challenging. An arm lift, or brachioplasty, strategically addresses these concerns by removing excess skin and potentially incorporating liposuction to achieve a more balanced, proportional arm contour.

Surgical Approach to Arm Lift

The arm lift procedure involves carefully placed incisions that minimize visible scarring, typically following the natural sleeve line of clothing. Dr. Bass's techniques focus on:

  • Reducing excess upper arm skin
  • Potentially removing localized fat deposits
  • Creating a smoother, more toned arm silhouette

Comprehensive Arm Contouring Techniques

For patients with additional skin concerns, Dr. Bass may recommend complementary procedures such as an axillary lift or forearm lift to ensure a uniform, comprehensive body contour.

Recovery and Results

Post-surgical patients will wear compressive sleeves for approximately three weeks to support healing and optimize results. The procedure aims to deliver a more refined, proportional upper arm appearance.

I visited Dr Bass in 2007 and I revisited in 2024. It all started with Theresa and her friendly, welcoming voice when I made my consultation appointment. To Norma taking all the time you need in order to answer all your questions and concerns. To the final outcome of Dr Bass performing the surgery. He is a very skilled and professional surgeon with an impeccable bedside manner. Theresa, Norma and Dr Bass provide the best experience and are truly concerned and care about their patients. The before and aftercare is outstanding and they go above and beyond to make sure you are taken care of. I would recommend this team hands down to anyone! You will not find a better one!

Dr. Bass is the most professional and caring plastic surgeon. The process from the very first consultation was such a wonderful experience. 10 years ago I went to him for breast implants and him and Norma were so caring and asked so many questions and made me feel so comfortable. I knew since the very first appointment that I would be very well taken care of. 3 weeks ago I had my breast implants removed and had the same experience. The care and attention to detail by Dr. Bass and his staff is beyond 5 stars! A perfect 10! Also, my recovery was smooth and easy. Having the best surgeon makes all the difference!

Dr. Bass performed a blepharoplasty on me in September 2023. I am so pleased and grateful for the amazing job he did. I can see 100% better without droopy eyelids and have received many compliments. Thank you Dr. Bass and staff for this positive experience.

I believe Dr. Bass has some amazing surgical skills, but in my case I unfortunately was extremely unhappy with my results. He didn’t fix any of the things that we discussed, and he said he would, and after I kept having to go in and fix things, $1,800 each time, I eventually spent around $56,000, and no one hardly noticed a difference. He made me feel like it was my fault. I was really surprised he didn’t stand behind his work. I had to go to another plastic surgeon to correct Dr. Bass work that he had said no more could be done. When I went to him 30 years ago he was extremely caring, and over the years he seems more worried about the money he’ll make, then making a patient happy

He is the best. I’ve had so many people complement how good I look and what a great job he did. He definitely gave me back my confidence. Him and his nurse make you feel so comfortable. I would definitely recommend
