Question 1

how can i fix sagging breasts after pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Mastopexy...: Or breast lift. "deflation" of the breasts is very common after pregnancy and nursing. This may be associated with true drooping of the breasts or they just may appear to sag because they have lost their fullness. A breast lift is done like a breast reduction, but only skin is removed to keep the same size breast in a smaller, tighter, better positioned skin envelope.

Question 2

how should i tighten up my sagging breasts after pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

You have options.: If you are happy with your size then you may need only a breast lift (mastopexy). If you want to be larger or have more fullness then a breast lift combined with a breast augmentation may be needed. http://www.galumbeck.com/breast.html has more information on the procedures. A consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon can help you decide what options are best for you.

Question 3

how do you fix sagging breasts in men?

Accepted Answer

Gynecomastia : This depends if there is excess fat/breast tissue with or without loose skin. Usually this is treated with liposuction, and may require skin excision if not completely resolved with liposuction alone. If there is a tremendous amount of loose skin this may be addressed at the first surgery.

Question 4

how do i make my sagging breasts perkier?

Accepted Answer

Lift vs Augmentation: If your volume is adequate than you may need a lift. If you require more volume that an augmentation my do the trick. Some patients require both to make the breast more youthful. Lifts are done by removing skin this will result in a scar.  You can see typical results on line at asps.Org.

Question 5

does sleeping without bra helps in sagging breasts ?

Accepted Answer

Awesome question: I am not sure that there is an answer to this question. Intuitively, a person with large breasts would seem to sag more without the use of long term support but I am not sure that this has ever been studied because it would require a long term study with a bra on one breast and not on the other which is conceptually a hard study to perform. I do recommend that women with large breasts wear bras.

Question 6

are there any treatments available to help sagging breasts?

Accepted Answer

Breast lift surgery: There are no reliable non-surgical options to reverse breast sagging. There are a variety of surgical options depending upon how much sagging exists and whether or not you are happy with your current breast size.

Question 7

Wear a bra to suppor: I think it is important to support your breast at all times and not always go braless.Obviously pregnancy will casue your breast to enlarge and post partum they many times get smaller and sag.

Question 8

Accepted Answer

Question 9

can i tell me how i can firm sagging breasts?

Accepted Answer

Difficult: Giving ptotic breasts a more youthful appearance without a bra is difficult without surgery.  Surgical results can be very good with mastopexy +/- augmentation.  Mastopexy alone can improve shape but the breast will appear slightly smaller and significant upper pole fullness is difficult to achieve without augmentation in addition.  See a board certified plastic surgeon for more details.

Question 10
