Ask a Question
How Would Breast Implants Look As I Age?
I want to enhance my breasts but I'm very concerned about getting them because I want to know how my breasts are going to look when I'm old, like 80 or 70 years old?
Right know I'm 20 but I'm thinking in my future. Please respond to my question? Thanks.

Breasts as you age

Results of breast augmentation over time
Unfortunately, over time, the results of breast augmentation will change. Gravity, aging, pregnancy, weight loss/gain, genetics are all possibilities that can affect your results. As plastic surgeons, we cannot guarantee lifetime results.

Breast appearance and aging
There are so many variables that may affect the appearance of your breasts -over time- whether you have implants or not. These factors include pregnancy, breast-feeding, frequency of weight gain/loss, smoking, and your unique elasticity and quality of the breast skin and soft tissue. In general the larger the natural breast and/ or the larger the implant the greater the chance of stretch of the skin over time.
At the age of 20 you can expect that you will need another surgery, at some...
