I had a 360 tummy tuck and it was suggested after that I get a torsoplasty, to address my remaining love handles. Will this procedure narrow my upperback and address the spillage over the top of my band or will it only pull up my back? I kind of look like a linebacker at the moment due to muscle and skin! how much swelling is there typically with this procedure? it look several months for me to like the results from the 360 TT but that also involved muscle manipulation.

Answer: Bra Line but not Flanks The bra line excision, or torsoplasty, will address the lateral bra area and have a good effect on the spilling over of the excess axillary tissue over the bra. However, it will not typically effect the flanks, or "love handle" area to any great extent. For this you will need additional liposuction or an excisional procedure, such as a belt lipectomy, for the most effective results.

Answer: Braline back lift Thank-you for your question. It is difficult to answer some of your questions without seeing pictures,. A back lift does not address love handles, but does help with the the upper back , and the “spillage” over the top of the bra-band. The swelling is not as much as after belt-lipectomy (360 tummy tuck) , that you have already undergone.You will look quite good in two to three months and your back will look much better. Please find an experienced board certified Plastic surgeon who can examine you and help you with all your concerns. All the best!
