Back Lift
What is bra-line back lift surgery?
A Bra back lift surgery removes loose or sagging pockets of unwanted fat on the back. Since it corrects and contours the upper back area where the bra is positioned, the reason behind the name of the procedure becomes obvious.
The overhanging folds of skin and subcutaneous tissue are both functionally and cosmetically disturbing to patients. At the same time, they are difficult to address with other procedures such as lower body lift and “regular” abdominoplasty
On the other hand, back tuck stands as a reliable and consistent method of treating these issues. The procedure focuses on the removal of excess adiposity and skin from the back area.
Am I a candidate for bra-line back lift surgery?
The bra-line back lipectomy surgery is not reserved for women only; men can also benefit from this procedure. Generally speaking, anyone who struggles with fat or loose skin in the upper or middle-back area is a good candidate for the surgery.
However, women do have a slight advantage compared to men. Ladies can conceal the surgical scar with a bra, thus feeling more comfortable deciding to undergo a back fat lift.
On the flip side, men don’t tend to develop sagging skin or back fat rolls at the same rate as women do.
What is a posterior body lift?

The scars are above the hips on the back, unlike bra lift surgery which are below the bra strap on the back. The procedure can address several affected areas, including hips, flanks (love handles), and buttocks.
Can I get liposuction alone on my back?

What is an upper body lift?
