Although one of the most popular procedures for women in Scottsdale is breast augmentation, another up-and-coming treatment is the bra line back lift.
Why?
As we age and our weight fluctuates, excess fat and skin can accumulate on the back where the bra sits. This causes an unnatural bulging or sagging of skin and fat. Bra straps often exacerbate the problem, making some women feel self-conscious in tighter-fitting clothing.
How?
A surgeon can create an incision along where the bra strap covers the back and then remove excess fat and skin, tighten remaining tissue, and conceal any scar beneath the bra. The procedure improves the shape and contour of the upper and middle back.
Co-authored by Dr. Hunstad and me, an article on the procedure was featured in the “Ideas and Innovations” section of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Journal. You can read more about the procedure and read the article abstract at my blog.
