Brachioplasty will improve your arms’ overall contour and appearance. However, the procedure does not affect the muscles of the arms themselves. To achieve a “toned” look, you will need to do arm exercises such as bicep curls, shoulder presses, and tricep kickbacks.
Keep in mind that for the first few weeks following the procedure, you will need to avoid strenuous exercise as part of your healing process. No matter what the state of your arm tone is now, an arm lift will help showcase current and future muscle gain that your unwanted fat and skin would have obscured.
