Alleviating neck pain/stretched coopers ligaments - would a mastopexy help?

December 16, 2024
Asked By:Sarahbamboo in England, United Kingdom

I have pain in my neck and an achey pulling feeling ever since I lost a great deal of weight from my breasts in my early teens. I am now in my 40s. I understand this is most likely caused by stretched Coopers Ligaments. I used to be a 34 E but now I am a 32 D/DD according to fitters, although lack the volume to feel supported so need to wear 2-3 bras to feel supported at all times. Can you advise whether a mastoplexy would fix the problem of the pulling and pain, and not need multiple bras?
