What is the general recovery time for a back lift?

An upper body lift (UBL) is an effective body contouring procedure designed to address skin excess in the arm, outer and inner chest region. The contouring results are seen in the back as well. This is a common procedure after massive weight loss.A full upper body lift can be combined with a breast lift, breast lift with implants and male gynecomastia reduction. Recovery from this surgery can be upwards of 2 to 3 weeks depending on extent of the incisions and combined procedures. The area of weakness in the procedure is in the arm pit or axillary region, which is a source of wound healing complications and can be limited with appropriate care and activity, as well as adequate nutrition with protein supplementation.

Dear patient;


The recovery vary according of the
extension of the surgery needed.
If you have other procedures done that is also a factor to consider for
your recovery. We normally ask for
pictures for evaluation to give an estimate time and price of the procedures.

Thanks for the question, major lifting procedures usually require two weeks of down time. No matter what all scars will migrate unfortunately as the skin will stretch
