Abstract
The author presents his preferred brachioplasty procedure, describing how he varies treatment according to the patient's degree of upper arm flaccidity. In patients with mild flaccidity, short incisions are used, but patients with excessive flaccidity with adiposity are treated with lipoplasty and tissue removal involving a long incision to produce the best aesthetic contour.
