C
cheyostApr 27, 2020

I am 3 months and 2.5 weeks postpartum. I had my breast augmentation done on August 30th 2017. I've noticed that my breast are starting to drop and they look horrible compared too what I had the last two and a half years. I will attach photos of what my breast look like. What could cause this? Am I responsible for this? Is it my fault?
