I want to know everything i could possible do to tighten the skin around my breast and ways that i could get some lift to my breast. Im 17 years old and im 110 pounds overweight, which i know plays a huge role to my breast sagging and i need advice. I know the time to loose weight is now but of course its more challenging doing than saying. Im worried about if or when i loose weight my breast will be fifty years older than i am. What should i do, where do i start? Im worse than grade 3! Thank u!
Answer: 17-year-old with breast sagging Hello, it is very important that you are admitting that you are overweight since this is a big factor in your question. Without seeing pictures, I must assume that "breast sagging" means that your breast tissue hangs considerably lower than the crease under the breast and your nipple is also too low. If that is the case, you will need to have a breast reduction or a breast lift at some point in order to achieve the look that you want. Your biggest goal and challenge at this point is to come to a healthy and more ideal weight. I recommend that you discuss this with your family practice doctor or pediatrician. You may need to see a nutritionist in order to develop eating habits that can help you lose weight in a healthy and sustainable way for the rest of your life. Once you are more at your ideal weight and have maintained it for a long period of time, you should see a board-certified plastic surgeon to decide which type of operation you are a candidate for.

Answer: Young and sagging Unfortunately there are not many options other than surgery to lift and tighten the skin of your breasts. As you alluded to, you will likely see the biggest change in heaviness and fullness of your breasts with weight loss. Most women find that their breasts deflate and can even sag more with significant weight loss like your talking about, more than 100 pounds. It will be a journey but getting to an ideal weight for yourself and then considering either breast reduction or breast lift will likely be your best solution. Good Luck!

Answer: Breast ptosis at a young age Thank you for your question.Yes, the breast will appear somewhat "sagging" with weight loss. This is due to the supportive ligaments that are stretched out with weight gain and then subsequently sag once the weight is off. Be sure to consult with a board certified/eligible plastic surgeon. With additional weight loss you would likely benefit from a lift and and implant to give a more youthful shape and size.In our practice we use a couple techniques to help you choose the perfect implant for your body type --At your consultation we use the following methods to helpensure you are happy with the chosen implant size.1.Silicone sizers – these are shaped like breasts and designed by the implant manufacturer to give you a representation of how you will look with the implants. We carry all the sizes.2.3D imaging – in our practice we take a 3D image of your breasts. This allows us to show you, visually, what can be achieved with the implants. Different sizes and shapes can be selected to “preview” yournew look.I hope this helps.- Dr. Bryson Richards (Las Vegas Plastic Surgeon)II hope this helps.Best of luck.- Dr. Bryson Richards (Las Vegas Plastic Surgeon)
