What is the best procedure for sagging back skin? (Photo)

Question

Hello, I'm 30, I had a liposuction at the age of 19. Today I have excess skin in my back, not fat, apparently from the liposuction scaring, I went to several surgeons and they all confirm it's skin. I'm not fat, or have excess fat anywhere in my body, I work out. One doctor recommended Renuvion to tighten the skin in the back? I want advice on this or which procedure can help this back skin issue as there doesn't seem to be much, thank you.

Thank you for your picture and questions. I think the best thing to treat excess skin is removal. There are tons of "non-invasive" techniques out there but they all seem to fall very short of surgical treatment in terms of outcome and contour. Look into a bra-line back lift. This is very successful and the scar can be hidden in the bra-line. Best of luck!Dallas R. Buchanan, MD, FACSOwner & Board-Certified Plastic SurgeonVIVIFY plastic surgery

Non surgical options give only mild improvement compared to surgical lifting. Skin tightening can be done with a combination of vanquish, venus legacy, exilis, celllutone/Zwave. However for best results, a tummy tuck procedure can be combined with a high definition procedure at the same time. For best results, I recommend a hi definition procedure like a VASER liposuction. I use VASER HI DEF with ThermRF and fat grafting to get the most fat removal, skin tightening, contour and definition. This combination will give you the most toned result. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a hi definition physique expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thanks for your question.Renuvion for laxity of the skin is becoming more common.  The protocols have improved to allow for better results.  There are many doctors performing Renuvion that are getting phenomenal results.  Dr Adam Rubenstein in Miami performs Renuvion so maybe a consult with him would give you more information.

Surgical excision is one option which is most costly and will involve scars. A reasonable and very effective treatment would be Renuvion ( aka J Plasma) which is mimimally invasive and can be down under local anesthesia .

Based solely upon the 1 posted photo, without in person examination, I think there might be some fat with excess skin. I might offer liposuction with ? J-Plasma or BodyTite therapies. Total excision of the bra/back rolls leaves permanent scars! Expect fees in the $10,000 ranges because very difficult area to address and results are very limited.
