Back Lift Surgery in South Florida

Sculpt the Back You Worked Hard to Earn

After significant weight loss, pregnancy, or aging, many patients are left with one frustrating issue: excess back skin that folds over the bra line or waist. No amount of diet or exercise can tighten skin that’s lost elasticity β€” which is where a back lift, also called an upper body lift, comes in.

At South Florida Plastic Surgery, we perform back lift procedures to restore smooth contours, eliminate skin folds, and help you wear clothing with confidence again.

🧠 What Is a Back Lift?

A back lift, sometimes called a bra-line back lift, is a surgical procedure that removes:

  • Sagging or loose skin on the upper or mid-back

  • Skin rolls or bulges around the bra line

  • Residual fat deposits that resist liposuction alone

  • Excess skin from massive weight loss

It’s ideal for patients who have achieved weight loss success but want their outer appearance to reflect their hard-earned transformation.

βœ… Benefits of a Back Lift

  • Removes horizontal back rolls and loose skin

  • Creates a smoother contour in bras and tight clothing

  • Reduces skin irritation or infections in skin folds

  • Restores confidence in bathing suits, dresses, and workouts

  • Often performed alongside arm lift or breast lift for full upper body rejuvenation

    β€œAfter my 80-pound weight loss, I loved how far I’d come β€” but I hated the loose skin on my back. This procedure completed my transformation.”
    β€” Julie T., Boca Raton

πŸ“Έ Ideal Candidates for Back Lift Surgery

You may be a good candidate if you:

  • Have lost a significant amount of weight (50–100+ lbs)

  • Have loose or hanging skin across the upper back

  • Are healthy, non-smoking, and weight stable

  • Have realistic expectations

  • Struggle with skin rolls, bulges, or hygiene issues due to excess skin

πŸ› οΈ How the Procedure Works

Back Lift Procedure Overview:

  • Anesthesia: General

  • Incision: Horizontal, hidden along the bra line or under folds

  • Tissue removal: Excess skin and small fat deposits are removed

  • Tightening: Remaining skin is lifted and sutured for a smooth contour

  • Duration: ~2–3 hours

  • Recovery: 10–14 days for initial healing

Many patients combine this with:

  • Arm Lift

  • Tummy Tuck

  • Breast Lift or Reduction

  • Liposuction of the upper or lower back

⏳ Recovery Timeline

Timeframe What to Expect
Days 1–3 Rest, compression garment, minor drainage
Week 1–2 Swelling, bruising; most return to non-strenuous work
Week 3–4 Resume light physical activity; no lifting
Week 6+ Return to normal exercise and full activity
3–6 Months Scar fades and results fully settle

Dr. Nair will provide personalized recovery instructions and scar care protocols to ensure minimal visibility and optimal healing.
