What Is Skin Excision Bra Roll Surgery?
Also referred to as a bra strap excision or upper back lift, a skin excision bra roll surgery is a common plastic surgery procedure for patients with excess upper back and outer chest skin and subcutaneous fat that hangs over their bra straps and impacts the natural curve of the upper waist and back contour. The primary goal of this procedure is to tighten and shape the back, waistline, and outer chest, allowing the patients to feel more comfortable and confident in tight-fitting clothing and bathing suits.
Genetics, weight fluctuations, pregnancy, breastfeeding, poor nutrition, lack of exercise, and natural signs of aging can all cause the accumulation of fat and skin in the area beside the breasts and across the upper back. These characteristics can significantly hinder a person’s self-confidence, forcing them to wear clothes that are larger and less flattering to the rest of their body. Skin excision bra roll surgery is designed to target and relieve these body contouring issues and achieve a smooth, elegant shape to the sides and back.
Dr. Jaiswal has significant experience with upper back lift surgery and has performed countless cases throughout his career. In his highly experienced hands, a skin incision bra roll surgery will:
- Eliminate back rolls
- Improve the natural waistline
- Create an elegant and youthful shape
- Remove excess skin
- Tighten sagging skin
- Enhance the overall appearance in clothing and swimwear

What to Expect During Your Bra Strap Excision Consultation?
During your bra strap excisions consultation, a clinician will take you to a private treatment room where you can feel free to discuss your concerns. They will also educate you on the details of bra strap excisions, present other possible treatment options, and answer questions or concerns regarding your preferred procedure. The clinician will then provide a thorough evaluation of your skin laxity, take reference photos for your file, review potential surgical fees, and answer any final questions. The clinician will then share this information with Dr. Jaiswal, who will ultimately determine your candidacy for surgery and finalize the total cost.
The clinician will then reach out to the client with feedback from Dr. Jaiswal and initiate the next steps. Once the patient has agreed to move forward with their bra roll procedure, a formal quote is provided, and a second consultation with Dr. Jaiswal will be scheduled where both doctor and patient can dive deeper into the details of their surgery, expected recovery, and any other details pertaining to their procedure.
The Different Types of DrSkin Med Spa Back Contouring Techniques in Phoenix, AZ
Depending on the needs and desired results of each patient, there are different upper back contouring techniques designed to address different degrees and locations of excess skin and fat. Patients who decide to pursue skin excision bra rolls are typically frustrated because no matter how much exercise or weight loss they achieve, they cannot eliminate the excess skin and fat that hangs over their bra straps. The solution is to remove the extra fat and contour the upper back with liposuction in combination with skin excision. Dr. Jaiswal offers multiple techniques for skin excision bra roll procedures.
Mini Skin Incision Bra Roll
A mini bra-strap excision uses a shorter outer chest incision in the natural breast fold to target and remove sagging skin from the outer breast and chest. This technique can be combined with liposuction to contour the entire outer chest area, but it is generally recommended for patients with excess skin limited to the outer chest and breast.
Standard Length Bra Strap Excision
Also known as a full bra-strap excision utilizes a curved incision that starts on both sides of the outer chest and extends on a slight curve up toward the center of the back. This technique allows Dr. Jaiswal to perform more advanced skin tightening and shaping along the back, waist, outer chest, and sides of the breasts.
Extended Bra Strap Excision
An extended skin incision bra roll involves a curved incision from the upper back along the bottom of the breasts that extends to the outer chest to remove excess skin along the entire upper back and chest region. This technique allows Dr. Jaiswal to tighten and reshape the upper back, waist, and outer chest as well as lift the outer breasts and chest rolls.
The Best Candidates for Skin Excision Bra Roll (Upper Back Lift)
Good candidates for skin excision bra roll surgery in Arizona with DrSkin Med Spa are individuals who are unhappy or self-conscious about the puffy back rolls that appear around their bra straps due to excess skin and subcutaneous fat. The goal of an upper back lift is to provide patients with a rejuvenated figure and restored sense of self-confidence by strategically and precisely targeting the areas that cause them to feel self-conscious.
Candidates for surgery must be healthy, non-smokers, and at a stable weight prior to their procedure. To determine whether an upper back lift is right for you, our team of expert physicians, including Dr. Jaiswal, will provide their professional opinions, recommendations, and guidance through this important decision-making process.
Preparing for Your Skin Excision Back Roll Procedure in Scottsdale, AZ
One week before your skin excision back roll procedure, Dr. Jaiswal will ask that you stop taking any medications or supplements that contain aspirin or blood thinning agents. He will also call in your prescriptions 48 to 72 hours prior to surgery so that patients can pick them up from their preferred pharmacy before their surgery day. Patients will be provided with written and verbal pre- and post-operative instructions, which are discussed and reviewed several times to ensure mutual understanding and compliance. Patients should arrive on their procedure day freshly showered and in comfortable clothing.
What Can You Expect on the Day of Your Upper Back Lift Surgery?
On the day of your skin excision bra roll procedure, you will arrive at an off-site, fully accredited surgical facility where you will be greeted by a clinician who will lead you to a private treatment room and help you get prepped for surgery. Once situated, Dr. Jaiswal will meet you in the operating room to review the details of your upper back lift. He will use a special, skin-safe pen to mark the areas where he plans to create the incisions while describing his plan to remove back rolls and smooth your figure.
As you’re being prepared, Dr. Jaiswal will discuss his approach to your surgery, including how much skin and fat he plans to remove, where he will make the incisions, the type of sutures he will use, and review your post-operative instructions.
Once you are fully prepped, a board-certified anesthesiologist will administer your general anesthesia, and the surgical process will begin. During an upper back lift, Dr. Jaiswal will create an incision that starts on the side of your chest, and either goes straight across your back or curves and meets at the center of your back. The excess fat and skin are removed, and the remaining skin is redraped and tightened. Incisions will be meticulously closed with special absorbable sutures to help limit scarring. After the surgery is complete, your incisions will be dressed, and you will be taken to a recovery room where you will be monitored while you wake up from anesthesia.
Upper Back Lift Surgery Recovery in Mesa, AZ
After an upper back lift surgery, the incisions are typically dressed and wrapped in a compression garment to help limit swelling and bruising in the area.
As with any surgery, it’s normal for patients to experience swelling and bruising around the incisions, especially during the first week of recovery. Some discomfort can also be expected, but it can be easily managed with the pain medication prescribed by Dr. Jaiswal. Any swelling or bruising will continue to subside as the body heals over the next 6 to 8 weeks.
Patients must also avoid strenuous activities for at least 6 weeks or until cleared by Dr. Jaiswal. Although strenuous activities are off-limits, light walking is recommended a day or two after surgery to help encourage circulation and prevent clotting.
Most patients can return to work within a week of their surgery, provided their job does not require much lifting or other forms of strenuous activities and their recovery is going smoothly.
The results of an upper back lift are visible immediately after surgery and continue to improve as swelling subsides. The shape of the upper back and waist will continue to evolve over the next three months, especially if significant amounts of skin and fat are removed. The incisions are made in a place that is easy to conceal with bra straps or bathing suit straps. Additionally, Dr. Jaiswal will provide you with instructions on how to care for your incisions and limit potential scarring.
