After success in weight loss, you may find yourself with loose or excess skin that undercuts your thinner figure and makes it hard to fit comfortably into your clothes. One common area for excess skin is on the back, where many women find rolls around their bra line. A bra line back lift can smooth out the back and torso, providing you with a slimmer fit. At San Antonio Plastic Surgery Institute, we are pleased to provide bra line back lifts for patients throughout the San Antonio, TX area.
What Is a Bra Line Back Lift?
The bra line back lift is a surgical procedure that removes some of the loose, sagging skin that droops or folds down toward the waistline. This often includes folds of skin near the shoulders, which can hang over the bra line. For optimal effect, the bra line back lift is often combined with liposuction, resulting in a more streamlined and flattering physique.
The Benefits of a Bra Line Back Lift
Patients choose the bra line back lift for many reasons. Some of the most significant advantages include:
- You can fit more comfortably into your clothing
- You may regain confidence when you wear a bathing suit
- You can optimize your appearance following significant weight loss
- You can address the effects of pregnancy and childbirth, aging, or even sun damage

Your surgeon will make a horizontal incision around the bra line, concealing scarring under the typical bathing suit or top. Your surgeon will then carefully excise unnecessary skin and tissue, using liposuction as needed.

Recovery After Your Procedure
Following your bra line back lift, you must give your body a few days to rest and recover. Most people are able to return to their normal activities within two or three days, though it is important to avoid heavy lifting or other strenuous activities for a couple of weeks. Over-the-counter medications can be used to mediate discomfort during the recovery from the bra line back lift.
