The average cost of a Back Lift (Bra Line Back Lift) in Turkey in 2026 ranges from $3,200 to $4,800 (approx. £2,500 – £3,800) depending on the severity of skin laxity. This all-inclusive price typically includes the surgery, general anesthesia, compression garments, and 3-4 nights of hotel accommodation. While Western clinics often charge high fees for the surgery alone, Turkish medical packages are designed to provide a comprehensive, stress-free experience for international patients.
2026 Back Lift Price List: Turkey vs. UK/USA
The following table outlines the costs for various back contouring procedures. It is crucial to choose the correct procedure based on whether your primary concern is excess fat (Liposuction) or excess skin (Surgical Lift).
| Procedure Type | Turkey Price (All-Inclusive) | UK/USA Price (Surgery Only) | Incision Placement & Goal |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vaser Liposuction (Back Only) | $2,500 – $3,200 | $6,000 – $9,000 | No long scar. Removes fat rolls only, not loose skin. |
| Bra Line Back Lift (Standard) | $3,500 – $4,500 | $10,000 – $15,000 | Horizontal scar hidden under the bra strap. Removes upper back folds. |
| Vertical Back Lift | $3,800 – $5,000 | $12,000 – $18,000 | Vertical scar on sides. Targets “lateral” excess skin. |
| 360 Body Lift (Belt Lipectomy) | $6,000 – $8,500 | $20,000+ | Circumferential scar. Lifts back, tummy, and buttocks together. |
Why is the Price Lower in Turkey?
The affordability of back lift surgery in Turkey is driven by lower hospital facility fees, reduced labor costs, and the currency exchange rate. It is not a reflection of lower medical standards. In fact, Turkey is a global hub for post-bariatric body contouring. Turkish plastic surgeons often perform a higher volume of these complex reconstruction surgeries compared to their European counterparts, leading to refined techniques and high safety standards.
Clinic Care Center: Expert Warning on Scars
We value honesty above all. A surgical back lift leaves a long permanent scar. While Vaser liposuction can remove fat, it cannot remove hanging skin. For a flat, smooth back, you must accept the scar. Our surgeons meticulously place this incision so it can be covered by a standard bra or bikini top. It is a trade-off: Would you prefer the hanging skin folds or a hidden thin line? Most patients find the freedom of fitting into clothes worth the scar.

Frequently Asked Questions About Costs
How much is a back lift in Turkey?
The standard “Bra Line Back Lift” typically costs between $3,500 and $4,500. If you require a more extensive 360-degree lift (Belt Lipectomy), the price is higher, ranging from $6,000 to $8,500.
Will my bra cover the scar?
Yes, for the standard Bra Line Back Lift, the incision is strategically placed horizontally across the mid-back so that it can be completely concealed by a standard bra strap or swimsuit top.
Can I combine Back Lift with Tummy Tuck?
Yes, combining these procedures is very common and efficient. When performed together, it is often called a Lipoabdominoplasty or part of a 360 Body Lift. Combining them allows you to save significantly on anesthesia and hospital costs.
Is liposuction included in the back lift price?
Yes, liposuction is almost always used during a back lift to “de-bulk” the area and smooth the surrounding fat before the excess skin is excised, ensuring a flatter contour.
How long is the recovery?
Recovery takes time. You will need to take 2 weeks off work and avoid heavy lifting or strenuous exercise for 6 weeks. Drain tubes are usually removed within 3-5 days.
Does insurance cover back lifts after weight loss?
In most Western countries, a back lift is considered cosmetic and is rarely covered by insurance unless there are severe medical skin issues. Medical tourism in Turkey offers a high-quality, self-pay alternative that is often more affordable than the deductibles or co-pays associated with insurance claims.
