I am 21 years old and weigh 150. I recently lost about 30 pounds and my breasts shrunk from a 34H to a 34DDD/32G. My boobs have always been pendulous and moderately saggy but they have gotten worse after the weight loss. I have a mild case of connective tissue disorder called Ehlers Danlos Syndrome so I have some excess/stretchy skin. Is there any procedure or creams that will help firm the skin/lift the breast. I don’t want a typical anchor breast reduction because I fear the scaring.
Answer: Breast reduction alternatives? You definitely need a breast lift procedure the way you are describing it. I’m sorry to say there is hardly any cream that will help you achieve this. You need a surgical technique of mastopexy and we don’t use anchor breast reduction technique. We use a short vertical scar technique. So I would ask you to meet a board certified plastic surgeon and request them to follow this technique so that scars are kept at minimal to get a much more stronger and powerful results.

Answer: Breast reduction in Ehlers Danlos Syndrome I recently operated on a patient with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome that was similar to you with excellent results. The technique I recommend is The Bellesoma Method. This will reshape your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness without implants, elevate them higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. The weight of the breast is transferred to the underlying pectoralis major muscle resulting in pain relief and long term stability. Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation and the ability to breast feed are maintained. Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Alternatives to breast reduction? (Photos) The proportion of breast that is fat varies, but weight loss can reduce the fatty weight of the breast. Liposuction is another option, but this will not improve the skin. If there is any level of droop, breast reduction by the conventional surgical methods is best. Beware of marketing tactics advertising breast creams, breast exercises, pills, and other gimmicks.Kenneth Hughes, MD, ABPS Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Answer: Alternatives to breast reduction? Congratulations on your successful weight loss. No, there is no nonsurgical method to lift or reduce the breasts. Be careful that you do not waste your time/resources on heavily marketed noninvasive technology and/or medications. Best wishes.

Answer: Breast reduction alternatives Congratulations on your weight loss, eg311! There really isn’t any non-surgical alternative to breast reduction. You might encounter creams or lotions that claim they can reduce breast size, but many of them don’t make a difference. I think you’ll benefit from a breast reduction with a breast lift. If you’re worried about the scars you’ll get, I suggest that you consult a reputable and board-certified plastic surgeon so that he can personally evaluate you and alleviate your concerns. I offer free consultations that you may schedule on my website. Good luck!
