Comparing Back Fat Removal Options In Orange County

Back fat, commonly called bra fat, is a common but uncomfortable problem for many women, even slim and fit ones. It causes bulges around or under the bra, can undermine self-confidence and self-esteem, and makes it difficult to wear certain types of clothing.

What Causes Fat on the Back?

There are several causes of back and bra fat in women. It may be due to natural aging, a genetic predisposition to store fat in this area, or being overweight.

As we age, our hormones begin to fluctuate. In preparation for menopause, estrogen levels start to change. These hormonal changes can alter the distribution of fat in the body.

Poor eating can also lead to stubborn fat deposits in certain body parts.

Fat cannot be targeted and removed in specific areas without the help of a fat reduction treatment. Diet and exercise are always the best options for getting in good shape. That said, stubborn fat will be lost throughout the body instead of in a trouble area, like the back. 

Treatment Option: Traditional Liposuction

Liposuction, or surgical fat removal, is also called liposculpture or lipoplasty. Back liposuction is a targeted removal of fat deposits on the bra using cannula suction devices. It can be performed on men and women and almost anywhere on the body.

The most common areas where liposuction is performed are the abdomen, hips, inner and outer thighs, and knees, and it is also an effective way to treat fat in the bra and back.

Treatment Option: Exilis Ultra

Exilis Ultra 360 is an FDA-approved procedure for tightening the skin and reducing fat deposits on the arms, chest, abdomen, thighs, and calves. It is highly effective for removing fat on the back and inside the bra.

Exilis Ultra 360 can reduce fine lines and sagging skin on the face and neck.

Radiofrequency energy dissolves the fat cells, which are flushed out of the body's lymphatic system, permanently removing the fat. RF energy also stimulates collagen fibers to tighten and firm the skin. This non-invasive procedure typically requires several sessions to produce results, and even then, the changes will be less dramatic than liposuction or comparable back fat removal techniques.

Treatment Option: Nonsurgical Laser Liposuction

Laser liposuction technology delivers precisely controlled heat energy that gently and effectively targets fat cells under the skin while leaving the skin itself unaffected.

The treated fat cells are disrupted and forced to empty their contents. Over time, your body will naturally process the fat and remove these dead cells, leaving you a more shapely back. No surgery, anesthesia, or lengthy downtime are among the advantages of laser lipo for bra and back fat removal. Again, like Exilis Ultra, results will not be too pronounced even after multiple sessions.
