Patient Case #20471

Procedure Details:

This patient is shown 3 months after her mid back lift, performed by Dr. Kirsty Boyd at Ottawa Plastic Surgery. This body contouring procedure was designed to remove excess skin and improve contour through the mid back, creating a smoother and more refined upper body silhouette.

A mid back lift can be an excellent option for patients who are bothered by loose skin, skin folds, or contour irregularity through the back, often related to weight fluctuation, aging, or changes in skin elasticity. Dr. Boyd creates a customized surgical plan based on each patient’s anatomy, skin quality, and aesthetic goals, with the goal of improving shape while placing scars as strategically as possible.

At 3 months post-op, this patient is still early in the healing process. Scars are often at their most visible around this stage and will continue to fade, soften, and mature over the next 1 to 2 years. Her early result demonstrates improved mid back contour, reduced skin laxity, and a smoother overall shape.
