Will Breasts Be Pulled Down During Tummy Tuck?

It would be very unusual for the breast to be pulled down from a tummy tuck. The breast fold is a very well defined structure in most patients and this should not be disrupted during a tummy tuck. It is possible to move the breast fold during breast surgery, so this should be discussed with your Plastic Surgeon if you are having a combined procedure.
The inframammary fold, or breast fold, is where the breast skin is attached to the strong connective tissue underneath the breast, along the lower rib cage. This may be intentionally altered during breast augmentation, breast lifts or other types of reconstruction of the breast. It is also possible to change this fold inadvertently during any breast surgery, but not likely during a tummy tuck.

Yes, ti will pull it down but this is not usually noticed by the patient. Typically the crease may be pulled down more than the breast itself. For this reason, when breast augmentations are performed at the same time as a tummy tuck, I may place the incision slightly higher on the breast to compensate for the "pulling down" effect.
