This dual-action approach melts away fat cells while also tightening loose, saggy skin.

Suitability for a BodyTite Arm Lift: Are You an Ideal Candidate?
A arm lift can be a compelling option for adults wanting to tackle the issue of sagging, loose skin on their upper arms. At Centre for Surgery, we have some specific guidelines:
BodyTite Arm Lift Procedure
The BodyTite arm lift typically lasts between 1 and 2 hours and is performed under local anaesthesia.
Your surgeon will begin the by making a small entry point on the skin. This incision is usually about 2-3 mm in width, just enough to the cannula of the BodyTite device.
The BodyTite cannula is then inserted through this small incision. It delivers radiofrequency energy, generating heat that targets and unwanted fat cells, while also aspirating the dissolved fat cells as it goes along.
While the cannula is at work beneath the skin, an external electrode remains on the skin’s surface. Electrical energy is passed between the internal cannula and the electrode, tightening the skin from below while also working on its outer layer.
A special gel is applied to the skin’s surface to ensure smooth operation and reduce friction.
After the treatment is complete, the small is closed. Due to BodyTite’s minimally invasive nature, the healing process is generally quicker than that of more invasive arm lift methods.
Comparing BodyTite and Traditional Arm Lifts
BodyTite arm lifts and traditional arm lifts serve the same purpose — enhancing the appearance of your upper arms — but the methods they employ are distinctly different. In a conventional arm lift, an incision is made usually extending from the underarm area to the elbow, with liposuction to remove stubborn fat pockets.
On the other hand, BodyTite utilises innovative technology to achieve similar results with minimal incisions. A slender probe that emits radiofrequency energy is inserted through a small cut in the skin, liquefying fat cells and stimulating collagen production for skin tightening.

When you undergo a traditional arm lift, you’ll notice an immediate change in the shape of your arms. Full results, including skin retraction and healing, may take up to six months to manifest fully.
The BodyTite arm lift procedure differs in terms of when you can expect to see results. Most patients begin to see improvements around two to four months after the procedure, with full impact often apparent around the mark.
Complementary Treatments to Consider with BodyTite Arm Lift
Traditional liposuction is an excellent method for removing substantial fat from targeted areas. However, one drawback is that losing fat volume can lead to loose or sagging skin. That’s where BodyTite comes into play — by offering both procedures together, surgeons can address fat removal and skin tightening simultaneously.
Liposuction will remove the bulk of unwanted fat cells, drastically improving the contour of the arms. Following this, BodyTite steps in to tighten the now-loose skin.
At the Centre for Surgery, the investment for a BodyTite arm lift starts at £5,000. If you’re considering enhancing the results with a liposuction treatment, the combined cost starts from £5,500.
