I'm 19 years old and I have saggy breasts. Would exercising help this or is it too late for me?

Thank you for
your question.
It is difficult to be experiencing significant breast ptosis
at such a young age, but you are not alone. A large number of women have
similar concerns.
Current research highlights the following as risk factors
for sagging:
Greater age, History of significant weight loss (>50
pounds), Higher BMI, Large bra cup size, Pregnancy, Smoking
As women age, the Cooper’s ligaments – the connective tissue
that helps breasts keep their shape- stretches out. Aging also causes breasts
to transform into having more fat rather than breast tissue making them less
perky and making them appear deflated.
Although you cannot control the natural aging and sagging
effects, or a genetic link, factors such as weight fluctuation and smoking are
in your control.
In fact, maintaining a healthy weight is important because
the higher the ratio of fat to breast tissue within your breast, the increased
risk of breast sagging. Having a healthy diet will also be protective (i.e.,
slow down) of aging effects and sagging effects.
Also, please note that breast sagging worsens with the
number of pregnancies you have, and that neither greater weight gain during
pregnancy or breast-feeding is found to be associated with a higher risk of breast
sagging.
Additionally, there are many health fitness magazines and
fitness trainers that propagate the claim that participation in regular upper
body exercise prevents or corrects sagging. However, there is still no evidence
of a protective effect. However, it is recommended to wear sports bra during
exercise because the constant pull of gravity and the excessive movement during
running can stretch the breast tissue possibly leading to sagging.
Having said all this, I urge you to seek a board-certified
plastic surgeon to have an in-person consultation for a breast lift. A breast
lift can raise your breasts, make them firmer, perkier, and more aesthetically
pleasing.
Hope this helps.

Thank you for your question.
Unfortunately large breast can cause the skin to stretch and the breast to drop because of the weight.
Usually the breast sag when the skin is not strong enough or the breast are too heavy or a combination of the two.
Unfortunately you cannot prevent or improve this situation without surgery...

Hi Meganxmurphy,

Thank you for your question. Unfortunately without reference photos, it would be impossible to determine your concern. Exercise does little help concerning the issue you have described.

If you are considering breast reduction surgery or any surgical option, you can visit a board-certified plastic surgeon for in-person examination and advice. Your surgeon can further discuss the options available for you to correct or resolve your concern.

It is difficult to give you specific advice without a consultation.  However, generally, once your breasts have sagged there are no methods to a) lift the nipple and b) tighten the skin without surgery.  Your first and most important step is to find a qualified plastic surgeon to evaluate your breasts.

Far more important than the technique is the skill and experience of your plastic surgeon. Choose your surgeon rather than the technique and let them explain why one technique may be better than another.  See the below link on some suggestions on finding the most qualified Plastic Surgeon for a BBL Always insist on a board certified plastic surgeon.
