I have posted the full article on the Bra Line Back Lift procedure as published in the Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery journal on my website: <BR/><BR/>http://www.aaaplasticsurgery.com<BR/><BR/>The article is a PDF file which has a before and after photo. This was the firs case we did. The patient was thrilled and since then we have been able to get even thinner scars. Yes, it is true that the back usually heals with a slightly wide scar. In essence you are trading a scar that is hidden under the bra for improved contour of the back and elimination of back folds/rolls.<BR/><BR/>All the best,<BR/><BR/>Dr. ReptaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17525644549512347584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8140316791707391928.post-72282043652957838362008-10-05T18:17:00.000-07:002008-10-05T18:17:00.000-07:00I'm thrilled to read about this procedure!

I have about 3 skin folds/rolls on my back, otherwise I'm within good height/weight ration. As a young looking 33 year old mother of two, the back rolls are the price I paid for my children when my skin stretched out. I'm dying to know if a warning my doctor gave me regarding a horizontal scar is true. He said there was a risk of the scar lengthening over time, creating a bigger scar that's harder to hide. Is this true? Can you post some pictures so we can see the results?Kirstenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14120682522213832670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8140316791707391928.post-26620225808328419322008-09-20T00:41:00.000-07:002008-09-20T00:41:00.000-07:00Yes, the Bra Line Back Lift is a new procedure int...Yes, the Bra Line Back Lift is a new procedure introduced by myself and Dr Hunstad. It seems that very few plastic surgeons offer endoscopic tummy tucks. It is probably related to the extra time, equipment, and training that is needed to perform endoscopic abdominoplasty. Patients that are out of town and that wish to receive more information about these procedures or wish to schedule a consultation can do so via our fly-in program or schedule a consultation format on our website http://aaaplasticsurgery.com.<BR/><BR/>All the best,<BR/><BR/>Dr. ReptaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17525644549512347584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8140316791707391928.post-43799399755271104682008-09-15T21:23:00.000-07:002008-09-15T21:23:00.000-07:00I'm very intrigued by the bra line backlift and th...I'm very intrigued by the bra line backlift and the endoscopic tummy tuck. These seem very innovative techniques. I've asked several friends and have researched other plastic surgeons in my area, but none seem to offer them. If I'm coming from out of town, may I schedule an appointment with you, or send pictures?prs10.20https://www.blogger.com/profile/06502544871726993292noreply@blogger.com
