3 Reasons Why a Stubborn “Bra Bulge” Won’t Budge
If you can’t seem to get rid of bothersome “bra rolls,” you’re not alone. This is a common trouble spot for many women, even those who diligently exercise and follow good eating habits. One or more of these factors below could be keeping you from shedding the stubborn bra bulge for good and achieving the more contoured back you want – but the good news is that treatment options like bra strap liposuction can help.
1. You’re Wearing the Wrong Bra Size
Let’s start with the easiest possible fix first. If you’ve never been professionally measured for your bra size, there’s a good chance you could be wearing the wrong size. Wearing a bra that’s too small in either the cup or the strap can cause fat to seemingly spill out, creating unwanted lumps and bumps.
If you’re bothered by subtle bra rolls, consider adjusting your bra size to see if that smooths away back fat. While this might be enough to get rid of a bra bulge for some, it may not be the sole fix for others.
2. Exercise Can’t Target Fat Loss In Specific Areas
Women of all shapes and sizes can get a bra bulge, even if they regularly exercise. Unfortunately, there is no way to target fat loss to the areas where we most want to lose weight through working out. So despite your best efforts in the gym, you might still carry extra weight in trouble spots like the upper back area.
3. Genetics Are Working Against You
Along with not being able to target fat loss, you could be genetically predisposed to store fat in areas like your upper back. This makes it even more difficult to slim down bra rolls, even if you lead a healthy lifestyle.If you are struggling to reduce back fat, bra strap lipo may be right for you. Dr. Brown performs this procedure for many women, and can include it as part of liposuction in other areas of the body as well to achieve an overall slimmer shape and increased confidence about your body image.
