Bra rolls, or pockets of fat over and under your bra strap, can be resolved with liposuction in Santa Monica. This procedure is a safe and long-lasting solution to correct unattractive bulging around the sides and back of your bra. Liposuction expert and cosmetic surgeon Dr. Ralph A. Massey can remove this unwanted fat to help you achieve more shapely contours.
Bra roll liposuction is a minimally invasive procedure that targets fat around the bra area. Fat in this area may be difficult to remove even with proper diet and exercise, and this procedure is effective enough to eliminate it. Bra roll fat also tends to sag as part of the aging process, so fat removal in this area helps to restore a more youthful appearance.
Under the care of Dr. Massey, patients can achieve satisfying results tailored to their goals. Key advantages include:
Targeted Fat Reduction: Bra roll liposuction precisely removes stubborn fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise, improving the natural contour of the upper back and sides.
Improved Clothing Fit: Patients report that clothing fits more comfortably and appears smoother after the procedure.
Quick Recovery Time: With advanced techniques, the procedure often involves minimal downtime, allowing patients to return to normal activities relatively quickly.
Long-Lasting Results: Maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle supports long-lasting results, allowing patients to retain their desired appearance over time.
During the procedure, Dr. Massey uses a thin, hollow tube called a cannula, and carefully inserts it through small, strategically placed incisions in the treatment area. The cannula is connected to a vacuum device that gently suctions out unwanted fat tissues. This targeted method minimizes disruption to surrounding tissues while delivering precise results.
Dr. Massey performs this procedure using only local anesthesia, promoting quicker healing and recovery. Patients often appreciate this approach as it allows them to return to their daily routines more quickly than procedures requiring general anesthesia.
After the procedure, patients may experience mild swelling, bruising, or soreness in the treated area. These effects are temporary and typically subside within a few days to weeks. A compression garment is often recommended to reduce swelling and support the treated area as it heals, helping to achieve a smoother contour.
Most patients can return to light activities within 24 to 48 hours, although they should avoid strenuous exercise or heavy lifting for about one to two weeks. Following the post-operative care instructions provided by Dr. Massey helps optimize recovery and maintain the procedure’s results.
With proper care and adherence to a healthy lifestyle, bra roll liposuction’s results are long-lasting. Patients leave with a more contoured upper back and improved confidence in their appearance.
The best candidates for bra roll liposuction are patients who are unhappy with the appearance of excessive fat around the bra area. While liposuction may seem like a quick fix for removing fat, candidates must not have a body mass index (BMI) of over 30.
Liposuction is a surgical procedure that is not safe for people who are obese. Results are best when patients have firm, elastic skin and good muscle tone.
Bra roll liposuction candidates should be non-smokers and in good physical health. Smokers and individuals with medical conditions that complicate wound healing are at risk of excessive bleeding, blood clotting, and more extended recovery periods.

Bra roll liposuction involves small incisions to insert the cannula, and these are strategically placed in less noticeable areas. While some faint post-surgical marks may remain, they typically fade over time and become barely visible with proper care.
The results of bra roll liposuction are long-lasting as the fat cells removed do not regenerate. However, maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle is important to preserve the contoured appearance, as significant weight gain can affect the outcome.
Yes, bra roll liposuction can often be combined with other cosmetic procedures, such as upper arm liposuction, for a more comprehensive body sculpting result. During your consultation, Dr. Massey will discuss your goals and recommend a customized treatment plan.
Weight gain after bra roll liposuction can cause remaining fat cells in the treated or other areas to enlarge, potentially altering the results. While moderate weight fluctuations are manageable, maintaining a balanced diet and regular exercise routine is essential to protect your investment in the procedure.
