I am 5 ' 2" and weigh 140 pounds. My ideal weight is 110. I got my BA two weeks ago and am wondering how weight loss will affect my new look. When I gain weight or lose weight, it is never in my breasts, and I have very good skin elasticity. I am 18 years old, so my body tends to be resilient to any weight changes in regards to skin elasticity and sagging.
Answer: Weight loss results in all areas of the body being smaller. The short answer is, yes, if you lose weight, your breast will get slightly smaller, but so will all other areas of your body so your body proportions will stay the same. There are some slight variations in this, such as women who have nearly all glandular tissue for breast tissue as opposed to mostly fatty tissue for breast tissue. The ones with glandular tissue would not decrease as much, while people with fatty tissue would see a more of a decrease. Best wishes.

Answer: Weight Loss/BA Hello,Thank you for your question. Typically, people do notice a difference in their breasts with significant weight changes. You may find that the implants appear more obvious with less fat covering them or that your breast size shrinks a little. All the best

Answer: Losing 30 pounds after BBA Losing 30 pounds may affect the distribution of the fat in your breasts. The fat offers soft-tissue coverage which not only makes your breasts appear full and soft, but also helps cover the implant. It is your perception that you don't lose anything from the breasts, but when you lose weight, the body naturally removes fat from all over the body in a consistent fashion. Now some areas of the body will be given preference naturally while other body areas will lose fat slower and after more effort than other areas (e.g., belly fat). A variable to consider is your body type. If you have a gynoid body type then fat is often concentrated below the waistline, in areas such as the hips, thighs, legs. An android body type has fat concentrated above the waistline, in areas such as the arms, axilla, back, hips, tummy, and breasts. If you have a gynoid body type, then weight reduction may not significantly affect your fat distribution in the breast. Now since you already had the BBA, it may be a good idea to talk to your surgeon about the after effects, and possibly choose a weight loss goal that is a bit more less. If the BBA results do not seem to be effected after initial weight loss reduction, you may continue to slowly reduce your weight until you reach a healthy weight. Hope this helps.

Answer: Will weight loss affect breast augmentation results Thank you for your question. A 30 pound weight loss may affect your breast augmentation result, but there are many variables. The fact that you are young and have good skin elasticity are to your benefit. Most of us lose weight gradually, so you can adjust your goals based on your results.
