Surgical Procedure

Upper Body Lift in Dubai

An Upper Body Lift in Dubai involves removal of excess skin and fat from the mid back bra line area. It is often performed in male and female patients who have lost a lot of weight.

This results in a scar that runs along the middle of the back (where a bra strap would sit), meeting in the middle and can extend into the arm pits, chest wall up to the breast area. It reduces the skin and fat directly but also lifts and flattens the fold and creases of the back fat very effectively below the scar.

It can be combined with liposuction and/or other body contouring and breast surgeries.

An Upper Body Lift in Dubai is performed under a general anaesthetic and if done alone is a day case operation, which means you go home the same day as your surgery. If combined with other procedures an overnight stay in hospital will be required.
