Removing Excess Arm Skin by Pulling It Toward the Arm Pit. Does This Work?

I have excessive arm skin after significant weight loss. A few years ago, I read of a surgery that removes excess arm skin without the unsightly scars by pulling it up toward the arm pit and then removing it; so the scarring occurs in the armpit not down the arm. What is your opinion of this kind of surgery?
