Non Surgical Breast Lift

Unfortunately there is nothing we know of to tighten skin. When your breast sag it is a failure of your breast skin and ligaments within your breast called coopers ligaments. A breast lift is better termed a nipple lift which is why it is always done with an implant which restores volume. When considering breast lift surgery you want to be at a stable weight, preferrably close to your ideal weight. Dr. Kearney

Gravity and a larger breast skin envelope can not be defied by exercise and pills.

Should you have a larger skin envelopes containing your breast tissue and have falling nipples after childbearing and breast feeding, you could benefit from a mastopexy(breast lift). This is an option only if you can accept the surgical scars! The decision for surgery is a very personal one for the woman with ptotic (longer) breasts. Discuss the risks and benefits with a board certified and experience plastic surgeon, so that you can gain a high level of comfort... more

Best Way to Lift Breasts?

The feedback cycles are too complex, and you might be setting yourself up for breast cancer. Consult with an experienced plastic surgeon who is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. I hope this is helpful. more

Avoiding Breast Lift

I agree with Dr. Zaworski -- there is no other good solution to breast sagging than a mastopexy (breast lift). The question then is do you want implants (augmentation) with the mastopexy to regain the fullness you might have lost with breast feeding? I would see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for a consultation

Non surgical breast lift options

Unfortunately, I do not know of any non-surgical options for creating a breast lift. There are several laser technologies including scitons skintyte laser treatment that claims to tighten the skin. I have seen some modest improvement in fine lines and wrinkles on the face and neck with this therapy, but it does not have enough of an effect to change breast shape. I would be very skeptical of any such treatment or medication that would claim to affect breast shape. The only real options are... more
