Upper Body Lift in Draper, UT

An upper body lift is a comprehensive cosmetic surgery aimed at enhancing and reshaping the area above the waist, specifically targeting sagging, loose skin around the arms, back, and breasts. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Nicholas K. Howland at Howland Plastic Surgery in Draper, UT meticulously tailors this procedure. The approach involves skin removal and liposuction to achieve a firmer and more aesthetically pleasing appearance. This surgery is ideal for individuals experiencing a decrease in skin elasticity due to aging or significant weight loss and can encompass an upper arm lift, breast lift, male breast reduction, and back lift. The combination of these procedures offers both women and men an opportunity to enhance their confidence and comfort with their bodies by addressing and improving areas of concern. Schedule a consultation with our team to explore the possibilities.

An upper body lift is conducted under general anesthesia to ensure comfort and safety throughout the process. The specific steps of the surgery depend on the combination of procedures a patient chooses to undergo, which can include an upper arm lift, a breast lift for women or male breast reduction, and a back lift. In an upper arm lift, Dr. Howland may use liposuction to remove fat and excise excess skin through an incision under the arm. For a breast lift, an incision is made to eliminate surplus skin, tighten the underlying tissues for a more lifted look, and reposition the nipples upward. Male breast reduction addresses excess breast tissue in men, removing skin, tissue, and fat through liposuction, excision, or both to achieve a more masculine chest contour. Lastly, a back lift targets the removal of fat rolls along the back through incisions near the bra line, excising excess skin and fat. Dr. Howland meticulously performs each of these procedures to enhance the body's contour and appearance above the waist.

An upper body lift at Howland Plastic Surgery is designed to address issues related to sagging skin and excess fat in the upper body, leading to a more toned and defined appearance. Some of the key benefits of an upper body lift include:

  • Reducing extra skin following weight loss
  • Enhancing and tightening wrinkly, hanging skin tissue
  • Toning the upper half of the body above the waist (like the neck, arms, breast, and upper back)
  • Improving your total self-confidence
  • Lasting results
  • Feeling better while wearing tight-fitting clothing

Dr. Howland is wonderful and was an absolute pleasure to work with. I consulted with another 5 star Top plastic surgeon but chose Dr. Howland because he was able to treat everything I wanted in one procedure and did an INCREDIBLE job as well as his warm disposition! I am so grateful. I always wanted a breast reduction and finally am in a size i am so happy with! They look AMAZING! He is very personable, is down to earth and has wonderful bedside manner. This is coming from a nurse! He listened to all of my concerns and took great care me. I don't typically do reviews unless I am compelled however I just had to give him the review that he deserves. These procedures are not a joke and they should be treated in kind. He was great! His staff is wonderful and responsive and there around the clock if you need them. I would recommend him 1000x over!

AMAZING!!! I interviewed 4 Plastic Surgeons before I met with Dr Howland and the minute I met him I knew he was my Surgeon. Best decision I could have made. My body reacted poorly to my Surgery...nothing to do with Dr Howland. His whole Office jumped in. The Nurses are TOP NOTCH...Jenn my girl..Avery who came to the Hospital to assist with a procedure...and everyone else even if not mentioned by name. Melissa at the Front Desk is like a Girlfriend. They have the best formula for choosing a Team. The other Plastic Surgeons that came to help...and called to check up on me. Dr Howland is always available by cell phone. No matter where or what he is doing Despite what happened I LOVE my results..BETTER than I had dreamed...would go back here for anything else, and refer anyone I know here!!! You feel like Family here...not a Patient Thank You to Everyone Lorrie Tomac

Dr Nick Howland was able to give me the trust I need it to go through a rough surgery for my body. I love the results i love the confidence it gave me back, his staff treated me like a queen. His incisions were perfect and you hardly can tell the incisions since it looks like a hair line. very impressive with his skills for sculpting. I totally will recommend him and use him again.
