Super Saggy Breasts - What to Do? (photo)

L
lornajDec 25, 2012

I'm 28, 5'2 and no children yet. I've always been large breasted but now they've gone way out of proportion. I'm open to anything that would improve my bust, whether it's a lift or a reduction or any other suggestion. I've been telling myself I should wait with this until I had children, but would it be ok to do it now instead? Also I'd like to still have large breasts, it's part of my personality and I don't want to be flat chested. But not with breasts down to my belly button anymore.

It depends on the advice of your surgeon. If they suggest you get one, then you should. If you have a history of breast cancer in your family, then you may be asked to get one. If not, then you probably won't need one.

Your breasts can be lifted, but my recommendation is to lose the excess weight first, for two reasons.  First, significant. weight reduction will improve your quality of life immeasurably more than breast lift.  Second, if you have the mastopexy (breast lift) and then lose the excess...

#Hypertrophic or #keloid scars can be a problem. The worst are usually under the breast with an #AnchorLift or inverted “T”. These can be treated like all thickened scars with re-excision, laser, kenalog/5-FU injections, creams, silicone strips and other methods to reduce and imp...
