Back Lift-Bra Line
The excellent candidates for Bra Line Lift surgery are both men and women who have sagging skin after significant weight loss. Since skin redundancy is the primary problem, this procedure removes sagging skin and excess fat, contouring the entire back making it tighter. An incision is made across the target area giving access to the excess skin tissue. This is especially good for the mid back where patients can experience noticeable bulges on each side of the bra-line. Sometimes liposuctions and other body sculpting procedures are done at the same time. A bra line back lift leaves a horizontal scar along the bra line. Keep in mind scars differ in the quality base of the patient’s skin and it is imperative to avoid sun exposure to prevent hyperpigmentation in the area and follow a regimen of silicone scar cream to keep the scar moisturized which may help.
