Will my Boobs Restore Back to Normal Size if I Gain Weight Back?

It is difficult to predict exactly where the weight will come and go. Typically if you have lost weight in your breasts then that is where the fat is most likely to return. Hope that aswers your question. All the luck to you.

Thank you for your question. Breasts are one of the weight-sensitive areas of the body. If you gain weight, you can expect your breasts to become larger and fuller. You will also gain weight elsewhere though too. I cannot, however, assure you that the breasts will go back to the exact same size they were before.

How the breasts respond to fluctuations in weight is unpredictable. In general terms, when patients lose weight and then regain the weight, they usually return to their baseline. Unfortunately, these weight fluctuations can result in the development of stretch marks and breast sag over the course of time. It's, therefore, important to have a stable weight before proceeding with cosmetic breast surgery.

Your breasts are naturally affected by weight loss, and they may return to their previous size if you gain back the weight you've lost. However, please note that frequent weight fluctuations can contribute to sagging.

   If losing 10 lbs caused a significant deflation in the breasts, then it may be reasonable to think that gaining the 10 lbs back would restore that volume to the breasts.  The only way to know is to gain the weight back in a healthy way and with a solid, well balanced diet.   Kenneth Hughes, MD Hughesplasticsurgery Los Angeles, CA

Dear Lexis,

Thank you for your inquiry.

Theoratically, the size of your breasts may be regained by regaining the 10 pounds you have lost if your adipose tissue is abundant in that area.

With that perspective, it is advised that a patient stabilizes her weight at her ideal level before undergoing breast augmentation.

Please note that gaining and loosing weight frequently may lead to the development of stretch marks. 

That being said, please remember that commendable results require an exceptionally skilled surgeon to perform the surgery and settling for anything less than that increases the chances of additional corrective surgeries dramatically.
I hope this helps and please feel free to check the website below.

Thank you for your inquiry.
The best of luck to you.

You would think that simply gaining 10 pounds would get your breast size back up to where it was before the weight loss, and this makes sense scientifically.  However, sometimes women do lose breast volume with aging, hormonal changes, and especially pregnancy.  Plus there can be a minor degree of sagging that makes them look smaller.  You may wish to have a breast augmentation later, but first see what you accomplish with a minor weight increase first (as long as this represents an ideal weight for you - I don't know your height).  I've attached a link to this part of my website in case you wish to read more.

Breast tissue is comprised of a mixture of glandular breast tissue and fat.  If you noticed a decrease in breast size as you lost weight (loss of fat volume), it is possible that you would regain breast volume as your weight returns to its normal level.

It would be wise to regain the weight before assessing if you need or want breast augmentation surgery.

Typically if your breasts deflated with weight loss, there is a good chance that they will re-expand a bit with weight gain.
