Me Clinic are experts when it comes to finding a solution for excess fat in the upper or lower back region. A procedure that is suitable for both men and women is upper and lower back liposuction, as an efficient method for targeting stubborn fat on the back.
If you are looking for a smoother and more proportionate aesthetic to your back with greater muscle definition, upper and lower back liposuction may be a suitable option for you.
This procedure is an efficient way of targeting back rolls, bulges and other fatty deposits that cause lumps in the back region. If excess fat is misshaping your back the liposuction procedure will offer the following primary benefits:
Back fat is caused by a number of situations including ageing, weight gain, and genes in areas which are hard to target and eliminate solely with diet and exercise. The upper and lower back liposuction procedure reduces these areas, lessening the bulges of fat caused by a bra or other articles of clothing, and creates a more proportionate body shape.
This 22 year old lady was depressed after many diet failures and was very self conscious of her appearance.
She required a two stage procedure, with removal of 3 litres of fat from the abdomen, midriff and upper hips/back in the initial procedure. For the second procedure, removal of fat from the outer thighs and upper hips is required. Even at this stage the patient is ecstatic with her new body. This procedure was achieved by our Liposuction Melbourne team.
The intention of upper and lower back liposuction is to create a more toned visual appearance, defining the back regions and creating a more pleasing shape.
A thin steel tube called a cannula removes the unwanted fat via a small incision made near the layer of fat that will be targeted in the back. The surgeons at Me Clinic will move the cannula slowly back and forth which breaks up the fat cells and allows them to be sucked out of the body with the cannula.
This procedure is a minimally invasive process, that only requires a local or general anesthetic. The benefit of this it needs a minimal recovery period and has faster healing times, and provides a look that is both consistent and natural. The process works to create a tight and smooth look to the skin with a more desirable contour.

When it comes to the fat removed via liposuction, we measure it in millilitres and litres. A safe amount for removal is around two and a half to three litres (which is considered to be a significant amount for removal).
Liposuction is not considered to be a painful procedure, but you must account for the fact that everyone has a different pain threshold. There will be a mild sedation administered along with a local or general anaesthetic to make the process more comfortable for you. The most discomfort you will likely experience is 24 hours after the procedure; however, medication will be available to help you be more comfortable.
This varies based on how much liposuction you require. A rough timeframe is usually around one to two hours, not including recovery from sedation which can take at least four hours.
Liposuction is considered to be a very safe procedure with few complications. Standard surgery risks apply across all surgical procedures.
It is common to experience some bruising with liposuction; however, it will naturally subside over time. if you also experience some swelling, it will likely subside after about a week
You should be fine to return to work in about three days, depending on the physical demands of your role. If possible, taking three to seven days off work may be a good idea.
