Is It Possible to Reverse Sagging Breasts at my Age?

December 6, 2012
Asked By:Krista Caldwell in Caldwell, Idaho

I am 19 years old and have sagging breasts. About 5 years ago I was on a medication that caused me to gain weight. Throughout those five years, I have lost all that weight again, but now I have breasts that sag. There are stretch marks on both of them indicating that the skin was stretched due to rapid weight gain. I have heard that with age, the skin loses elasticity due to breast feeding, etc., I am not that old yet. I have had no children. Is it possible to reduce all of this without surgery?
