Bra Line Back Lift - La Jolla, CA

Once again Thank you
WORTH IT$7,000
I decided to do a mid-back bra line lift after having a successful tummy tuck. Ater doing liposuction, my body was left with a lot of laxity and loose skin. My new tight tummy accentuated the loose skin on my mid back . . . so, once again I had a great experience with Dr. Michael Brucker. Yesterday, I underwent the bra line back lift procedure to remove unwanted bra fat and loose skin following liposuction. I truly pray no woman ever does any form of liposuction. My back looks great this morning - sides are nice and tight. I was mildly uncomfortable sleeping last night but I have little to no pain today and the scar line looks to be low enough to be covered by my skimpiest bra. Time will tell what the scar will look like as I am still bandaged and can't see it.

Once again Thank you's provider

Hi.. I am really glad that your surgery went well and that you are satisfied... Had the procedure done several years ago..and it was disastrous so I am hoping to find a surgeon that actually knows how to do this procedure... Sorry but I could not find any pictures of-you...pre or post op is there any way to get any ???? The $7,000 seems a little high to me...is that just for the bra line lift itself or another procedure you had done at the same time..??? I see you had this done back in August of last year..... Please send latest update and pics if possible.. Best to you..

Hey there ! You look great . I'm scheduled for this procedure in January . I also had a tummy tuck and arm lift last January. I'm curious to how you slept? I know I couldn't had done with out the lift recliner I rented last time . I couldn't get in and out of a bed for a few weeks. How did you do this round? Any advice sleeping wise ? I'd appreciate any advice at all to prepare for round 2 :)

2 months post-op.

Once again Thank you
I'm very satisfied with the results. I would like to note that it will be impossible to where a backless dress. The results are more than worth the compromise I have to make with my wardrobe choices.

Do you have any pictures? i just underwent a LBL and while the results are good, it has accentuated by upper back fat. What was the recovery time? I was out of work for 2 weeks for the LBL. Thanks!

Depending on the scar (flat v/s raised) it could be easily covered with makeup. Dermablend is made to take care of these issues. :) Check out a video online. Thanks so much for sharing your journey.
