An upper body lift removes loose skin folds and excess fat from the lateral chest and back. This improves the contour of the thoracic region; an area that does not benefit from a lower body lift.

Upper body lifts are seldom performed as an isolated procedure. More commonly, they are combined with a breast lift, arm lift or both. The combination of all three procedures is sometimes referred to as a ‘complete upper body lift’.
The experienced team at Dr. Owen Reid’s plastic surgery center is committed to providing comprehensive, individualized care, the highest level of safety, and optimal results as they guide patients through their journey toward achieving their cosmetic goals.
In the upper body, common areas to carry excess fat are the lateral chest, upper back and the back of the arms. If that’s the case, liposuction is often performed at the time of the body contouring procedures.
The incisions are closed with dissolving sutures and paper tape. Drainage tubes may or may not be required. A bra-like compression garment is placed at the end of the procedure and should be worn for 2 – 3 weeks. Patients will be observed and cared for in the recovery room for a few hours prior to being discharged home. Follow-up appointments will take place in Richmond at 3 days, 1 week, 6 weeks and 3 months following the procedure.
