Can a Bra Line Back Lift Be Done Just in the Under Arm Area and Not Extended So Far into the Back?

Nadanada1
I have seen the scars of this lift and of all the scars I will have from getting skin removed all over my body this is one I really don't like. But from pinching my skin I think an extended TT that goes a little more into the sides and a simple cut and skin removal just under my arm should be enough to take some of those folds away. It wouldn't be as tight as a full cut going towards the center of my back but that is fine for me. I have a lot of muscle I need to restore. Thoughts?
