Body Lift – Patient 132

A woman in her early 70’s who is bothered by laxity of the back skin. She asked about liposuction but this does not tighten loose skin and as we age the skin becomes less elastic. The most reliable way to tighten loose skin is to remove a piece. She is shown before and again, just 6 weeks after a bra-line back lift. With a bra line back lift, the back skin is lifted and the scar is hidden under the bra line. The skin in the flank area is pulled up as well.
