Redefine Your Contours

What is a back lift?

A back lift, sometimes referred to as a back lipectomy, is a surgical procedure aimed at reducing excess skin and fat in the back area.

This procedure addresses the "back rolls" that can develop due to various factors such as weight fluctuations, aging, and genetics. The ultimate goal of a back lift is to provide a smoother, more defined back and waistline, promoting an overall balanced body silhouette.

Reshaping Your Figure

Your Back Lift Procedure

Your comfort and safety are of utmost importance during your back lift procedure. In our state-of-the-art facility. A back lift is typically performed under general anesthesia, ensuring comfort for the patient throughout the procedure. During the operation, patients are positioned on their stomach, focusing on the mid-to-upper back area and sides of the upper abdomen beneath the arms. This region, especially for women, can be challenging due to skin folds that commonly appear both above and below the bra line. The procedure, often referred to as a "bra-line back lift," is designed to strategically position the incision under the bra line to minimize visible scarring. Through this incision, Dr. Vela meticulously removes excess tissue and, if necessary, employs liposuction to eliminate any surplus fat.

The remaining skin is then carefully sutured in several layers to deliver a smooth, contoured appearance. Following the procedure, bandages are applied to the incisions, and small drains are typically inserted beneath the skin before closing.

These drains help evacuate any excess blood or fluid that may accumulate post-procedure. Although most back lifts are outpatient procedures, Dr. Vela's approach prioritizes patient safety, comfort, and achieving the most aesthetically pleasing results.

Guided Recovery Journey

Back Lift Recovery and Aftercare

Following a back lift Miami patients typically experience some swelling and manageable discomfort. Thankfully, any discomfort can generally be alleviated with prescribed medication. It's common for patients to plan for a recovery period of one to two weeks away from work. During this time, any surgical drains will be cared for at home and are typically removed within the initial two weeks.

Additional Reading

To ensure the best healing environment for your body, it's recommended that you refrain from strenuous physical activities (such as exercising or lifting heavy objects) for the first four to six weeks after surgery. These activities could strain your incisions and potentially lead to stitch tearing.

While there will be some scarring as a result of the procedure, the incision is strategically placed to minimize visibility, and most patients find that any scarring can be easily concealed under a bra or swimsuit strap. Scarring will vary between individuals, and Dr. Vela will provide guidance and instructions on how to minimize scarring during your recovery period. Typically, patients can anticipate a return to their regular activities approximately four to six weeks following the procedure. With a comprehensive care plan and the guidance of Miami Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Vela, your back lift recovery can be a seamless and rewarding journey.
