Should I get a back lift or belt lipectomy? (Photo)

October 22, 2019
Asked By:Salz777 in New York, New York

I am in the process of finding a surgeon as i've lost 50kgs and am ready for the next part of my journey. I've been advised I may need a extended tummy tuck, breast lift, arm lift and side lift... but am not sure what I would need when it comes to the excess skin on my back. I have spoken to 2 surgeons so far and been recommended a bra line back lift and a belt lipectomy and i'm not sure which would be best in my case and feel quite lost. I would greatly appreciate any feedback for my case.
