Liposuction on the back at the Kuzbari Centre Vienna
Liposuction Vienna

Liposuction of the back

Fat rolls under the bra band and on the back occur even in slim people and can usually not be removed completely with exercise and diet. Liposuction removes these deposits in a targeted and permanent way: the folds under the bra become a smooth back line. Together with the abdomen and flanks, the 360° torso creates a contour all round.

  • Usually outpatient, under twilight sedation
  • Desk work after 2 to 4 days
  • Final result after 3 to 6 months
  • €3,800 – 5,600 or from €80 a month

Removing fat rolls from the bra line

Fat folds under the bra and on the lower back are often the real problem area, precisely because you can hardly see them yourself. In the video Dr. Ali Saalabian uses a real patient to show what matters in liposuction of the back.

How the back is treated

Liposuction of the back removes fat deposits on the upper and lower back and along the bra line through access points just a few millimetres in size, permanently, because the body no longer forms new fat cells after puberty.

First a tumescent solution is introduced, which numbs the tissue and keeps bleeding to a minimum. Fine cannulas then loosen the fat and remove it. On the back the fat is often firm and fibrous; which technique is added depends on the findings, and it is included in the price.

  • VASER

    Ultrasound loosens firm, fibrous fat, as is common on the back, before it is removed. More about VASER

  • Renuvion

    Helium plasma tightens the tissue from within and smooths the bra line after liposuction. More about Renuvion

  • Flanks

  • Own fat for the buttocks

Upgrade: 360° torso

The back is rarely treated on its own: its contour merges seamlessly into the flanks. The most harmonious line usually results when the abdomen, flanks and back are shaped all round in one procedure.

If only one side is treated, a step remains at the transition. That is why we plan the upper body three-dimensionally, from the front, the side and the back. In the videos Dr. Saalabian shows the back in men and the transitions from the flanks to the abdomen and back.

How much do the upgrades cost?

Several areas in one procedure cost less as a package than the individual areas added together, because preparation, anaesthesia and aftercare are needed only once. VASER and Renuvion are included where they are useful.

All prices in euros including VAT. Monthly instalments via Kuzbari Finance: 60 months, 9.99 % APR, no down payment, calculated on the lower end of the range.

Liposuction Vienna

When we advise against it

  • You want to lose more than 20 kg. Liposuction is no substitute for weight loss; it shapes the areas that diet and exercise cannot reach.
  • Your weight is not yet stable. If you are still planning to lose a lot of weight, we wait until your weight has been stable for months.
  • Your health does not allow it. We clarify pre-existing conditions with you beforehand, together with your GP if necessary.

Frequently asked questions about liposuction of the back

What are “back rolls”?

That is the name for fat rolls on the back, usually below and beside the bra band. They also occur in slim people and barely respond to exercise and diet; liposuction removes them permanently.

Is liposuction of the back painful?

The procedure is performed under twilight sedation or local anaesthesia and is painless. Afterwards the back feels like strong muscle soreness for a few days.

How long does the operation take?

That depends on whether only the back or also the flanks and abdomen are treated. There is no fixed time: we operate without time pressure until the result is right.

Do I have to stay overnight at the Kuzbari Centre?

Usually not: liposuction is generally an outpatient procedure. For larger amounts, from about four litres, we recommend one night with us.

When can I go back to work?

Desk work is usually possible after two to four days, and most people are socially presentable after about two days. The compression garment can be worn under your clothes.

When can I exercise again?

Light activity such as walking is encouraged from the start. You can begin exercising from two weeks and build up gradually.

Should the flanks be treated too?

Often yes: on the back the contour merges seamlessly into the flanks, and if only one side is treated, a step remains. Whether a 360° torso makes sense we clarify at the first consultation.

Will there be scars?

The access points are a few millimetres in size and placed discreetly. Once healed they are barely visible.

How much does liposuction of the back cost?

Liposuction of the back and bra line costs €3,800 to €5,600, the 360° torso with abdomen and flanks €9,500 to €14,300. You receive the fixed price after the first consultation; payment in instalments over up to 60 months is possible.

What is right for me?

Whether the back alone is enough or the flanks and abdomen belong with it, we assess at the first consultation with your whole silhouette in mind. As a first orientation:

  • “The fat rolls under the bra band bother me.”Liposuction, back / bra line

    Usually outpatient, €3,800 to €5,600. To liposuction
