Removing excess skin and rolls across the upper back for a smoother line under clothing.


An upper back lift removes excess skin and fat that form rolls across the upper back and around the bra line, often after significant weight loss. Liposuction may be combined to refine the contour.
Scars are positioned where a bra or clothing can help conceal them, though the back is a demanding area for scar healing. The improvement in contour is traded against the scar.
It is not a weight-loss procedure and cannot avoid a scar, which is the trade-off for removing excess skin.
You will receive individualized preparation guidance. Scar placement, often along the bra line, is planned at consultation.
Excess skin and fat are removed and the remaining skin is redraped, with liposuction used where helpful. Incisions are placed where clothing or a bra can help conceal them.
Swelling and tightness are expected. A compression garment is worn as advised, and activity is increased gradually under guidance.
A smoother upper back with reduced rolls is achievable. Back scars can widen, the scar is permanent, and significant weight change can alter the result.
All surgery carries risks. Possible risks include:
Smoking and impaired circulation raise the risk of healing problems and wound complications, so honest assessment and smoking cessation are essential. The back is prone to wider scars, so realistic expectations are important.
Body contouring at Skulpturkliniken is performed by Dr. Matteo Amoroso, a specialist plastic and reconstructive surgeon. His reconstructive background gives him a detailed command of anatomy, blood supply, and tissue handling, which is the foundation for safe contouring and natural proportions.
Dr. Amoroso plans every procedure around your proportions rather than maximum change. The aim is a balanced, natural shape that suits your frame and moves naturally, planned with restraint so the result looks like you at your best.
Choosing a surgeon is personal, and the relationship should rest on open communication and trust. From the first consultation, Dr. Amoroso helps you understand what is realistic, which approach suits you, and whether surgery is the right option at all.
Every procedure begins with a detailed assessment. We evaluate:
