Localized fat deposits on the back, known as Bra Rolls, which extend as small bulges from the center toward the sides, appear in most women after the age of 40—though they can show up earlier in those predisposed to store fat in the upper body. Learn how you can eliminate the bulges under your bra.

Why do Bra Rolls appear?

Their appearance is linked to excess fat or genetic inheritance. The skin on the back, in addition to having localized fat deposits, also tends to stretch, which causes these rolls to form.

How to prevent Bra Rolls or bulges under the bra?

To prevent them from appearing, it’s essential to maintain a healthy diet and exercise regularly. The lower the body fat, the lower the risk of developing them. Additionally, it’s important to keep the body constantly hydrated, as this improves the skin’s elasticity.

How can you eliminate the bulges under your bra?

Once these bra rolls have appeared, the first thing you can do is check whether you’re wearing the correct bra size. A garment that’s too small can compress the skin and create a “roll” effect on the back and under the armpits.

Bra Rolls can also be reduced without surgery by lowering overall body fat, although not all cases can be resolved this way—especially those caused by hereditary traits. Localized fat is difficult to eliminate. However, try maintaining a healthy diet, drinking two liters of water a day, and exercising daily.

What treatments can eliminate Bra Rolls or Bra Bulges?

The most effective way to eliminate localized fat—fat that neither exercise nor diet can get rid of—is liposuction, specifically back liposuction in this case. With this technique, all the fat in the targeted area is suctioned out, eliminating the rolls and sculpting the figure.

Another treatment that delivers excellent results is massage with INDIBA. Thanks to this technology, the cells begin synthesizing collagen and elastin again, which improves skin elasticity and firmness while reducing cellulite and fat.
