Lower Back/Upper Back

Back fat can be caused by lifestyle factors, ageing, genetics or an unbalanced diet.
Diet, exercise, and weight loss may not always be enough to get rid of fat in both the lower and upper back.
Vaser liposuction is a cosmetic surgery designed to target and remove excess fat in the back.

What is Back Fat?

Back fat refers to the excess fat that accumulates on the back, typically in the upper and lower regions. It can create a bulging or flabby appearance in those areas. It can also often extend to your waist and abdomen. Back fat is a concern that often goes beyond general body weight and is a specific area of the body that can stubbornly hold onto fat.

What Causes Back Fat?

Back fat can be influenced by diet, activity levels, and hormonal changes. Genetics also play a role, as a family history of back fat increases the chances of developing it. Unhealthy diets, lack of physical activity, and hormonal shifts, especially with age, can also contribute to back fat accumulation.

How to Get Rid of Back Fat

Getting rid of back fat often requires a multifaceted approach. A balanced diet and regular exercise can help, but in some cases, they may not be enough. Vaser liposuction is a cosmetic procedure that can provide a more direct and effective solution to remove excess back fat, offering a quicker and more lasting result. It’s essential to consult with a cosmetic doctor to determine the most suitable approach based on your specific situation and goals.

About Back Fat Liposuction

Back Vaser liposuction is a cosmetic procedure aimed at those struggling with upper and lower back fat. This advanced procedure utilises ultrasound technology to specifically target fat cells, liquefying them for easier removal. It can also be paired with abdomen and waist liposuction, and love handles liposuction for a holistic fat removal approach. Compared to traditional liposuction, Vaser is less invasive, resulting in reduced bruising and quicker recovery periods. By precisely targeting fat deposits, Vaser liposuction can achieve a smoother, more defined back contour.

How do I get rid of excess back fat?

Eating well and staying active is key for overall health and can help you lose some fat, including back fat rolls. But due to how our bodies are wired with genetics and hormones, these efforts might not always zero in on back fat specifically.

Is back fat liposuction safe?

Like any surgery, there are risks, but modern methods like Vaser liposuction have made it safer and reduced how long it takes to recover.

Who is a good candidate for back fat liposuction?

If you're healthy overall but can't shake off back fat no matter what you try, liposuction might work for you. Talking about your health and what you want to achieve with a doctor can help figure out if it's a good fit.

How much fat can be taken out in one go?

In Australia, up to 5 litres of fat can be taken in one surgery. However, you may be eligible for mega Vaser liposuction if you have a significant amount of fat to remove. It's about what's safe and works best for your body, so your doctor will guide you on what's right for you.

What are non-surgical options for tackling back fat?

If you are after a non-surgical approach to getting rid of back fat, CoolSculpting might be for you. This treatment can lessen fat without the need for surgery, though the change might not be as big or quick as what you'd see from liposuction.
