Back Fat - Upper Body LIft
I had a lower body life on Feb 25th (boy does time fly). I know I will need what my doctor is calling an upper body lift next. This will be removing the back fat (which is attached to my love handles that drive me crazy), Boobs, and arms.
How exaclty do thye cut you to remove back fat. LBL is pretty self explanatory, cut you all the way around etc. Where do they cut you for back fat?
I know when it gets closer to the time for second surgery my doctor will explain everything but thought I would check and see how anyone elses was.
Thanks

Dr Kreiger did my upper and lower body lifts. I did not have my arms done. I had a breast lift with auto augmentation and my back fat removed. My back fat is gone! Just like the LBL, I was cut completely around. My scar is covered by my bra for the most part. My surgery ran long because of the auto-augmentation and Dr K's attention to detail. I have pictures of my back fairly soon after the surgery on my profile. I am sorry I don't have anything recent, because my scar has really faded and I have lost an additional 25 pounds. Good luck and feel free to PM with questions. Loris
