Do you know those folds that appear on the back? (2/2)

Do you know those folds that appear on the back? They can have more than one cause.

In addition to excess fat in the area (which can be treated with liposuction or also reduced through weight loss), skin laxity promotes the maintenance of these folds. It can arise from losing a large amount of weight or with advancing age.

In the lower region, the surgery is called #torsoplastia. It helps remove the “saggy” and undefined look of the area by lifting the skin of the buttocks and the lateral thighs. It can be complemented with fat grafting in the area. It can be performed together with abdominoplasty, being called #circunferencial.

In the upper region, the surgery can be called #toracoplastia, and is performed with the objective of pulling up the skin that accumulates at the waist. We make the marking so that the scar remains on the bra line, but it is not possible to predict with exactness the final location of it, which depends on the resultant of the forces acting in this area. It can also be performed together with #mastopexia.
