If you’re like many women, you like the idea of having firm, perky breasts. Sadly, nature does not always cooperate. Over time, with the effects of age and gravity, virtually all breasts inevitably sag. While you may have to accept that sagging breasts are likely a condition you will have to face at some point in your life, what you don’t have to do is live with it. Illuminate Plastic Surgery has many great options for improving your breast position.
The clinical name for sagging breasts is breast ptosis. But what causes it? The main causes of sagging breasts are age and gravity. Over time, ligaments in the breasts known as Cooper’s ligaments tend to stretch out, being pulled by gravity. Eventually, this leads to breast sagging. Other contributing factors can include a collagen deficiency, a high body mass index, multiple pregnancies, rapid weight loss or gain and large breast size. Regardless of what caused your sagging breasts, we have excellent ways of reversing the effect.
There are multiple ways of addressing your sagging breasts, depending upon your specific situation:
As soon as the procedure is complete, you will notice a marked difference in the appearance and shape of your breasts, which will probably become more noticeable as you heal and bandages are removed. Your breasts will be higher, firmer and in a more pleasing shape. Clothes will fit better, you will look better and younger and in all likelihood you will have greater self-confidence and less social anxiety. If your sagging was caused by very large breasts and you had a reduction, you will probably experience less back pain and better breathing.
