Arm lift (brachioplasty) at MUDr. Kučerová's Brno clinic surgically removes excess skin and fat from the inner aspect of the upper arm — the area commonly called 'bat wings' — to restore a tighter, more defined arm contour. The procedure is particularly effective after significant weight loss or in cases of pronounced age-related elasticity loss that cannot be addressed by exercise alone. Performed under general anesthesia with a 1-day hospital stay, the surgery takes one-and-a-half to two hours and uses absorbable sutures. The all-inclusive price of 54,200 Kč covers the pre-operative examination, surgery, elastic bandaging and compression garment, and all follow-up care.

The incision placement and length are planned in the pre-operative consultation to balance the degree of skin excision needed against scar length.
