Thanks for your question. It is difficult to recommend a treatment options without photos or examining you. I recommend you consult with a board certified plastic surgeon for your breast planning. When you have grade III ptosis, the best option is a traditional breast lift. I would take some time and save up or research some financing options. Any other non-surgical option would be a waste of money.

Unfortunately, at this point in time there is no good solution to sagging breasts that does not involve surgery. A good brassiere obviously helps a lot in clothing. We are all hoping with future technology that there may be a way to lift breasts without surgery or at least without scars.

Thank you for sharing. This is a situation that affects many including at your age. Most likely surgery is the best way to address your issues. A breast lift at the least should be considered and possibly with implants to reach an aesthetic goal. Seeing a board certied PS will guide you best. If you're a candidate, medically necessary breast reduction could help many patients in this scenario but that is determined by examination. Hope this helps.

The only solution for sagging breast is either an implant and lift or lift alone unless the degree of sagging is not too severe. Unfortunately surgery is the only option for your problem. I would suggest making an appointment with a nearby plastic surgeon.

At my office I recommend the Morpheus 8 with PRP. This provides a nice tightening and rejuvenation of the breast skin while also effecting a lifting effect. I often recommend mixing a high G' hyaluronic acid filler with the PRP to provide a natural, more full appearance. The results can last 1-2 years. Patients will return annually for a touch up. I recommend a virtual consult to better ascertain the condition of your breasts without you having to come to the office. I hope this helps. Have a great day

Sagging breasts can be treated sometimes by a lift and/or with implants. Without an exam it is difficult to say.

Tom J. Pousti, MD · Answer

I am sorry to hear about the problems you are experiencing. Based on your description, you may benefit from breast lifting/reduction surgery at some point. If “costs and scars are not an option", then this is not the right time to proceed.  However, do not waste your time/resources on nonsurgical modalities.  Breast lifting/reduction surgery done for properly selected  patients, who are doing the operations at the right time of their lives  psychosocially,  tends to be a very patient pleasing operation.  These patients tend to accept the scars associated with breast augmentation/breast lifting surgery as long as they are happy with the improvement in contour, size, and symmetry.  You may find the attached link, dedicated to breast lift surgery concerns, helpful to you as you learn more. Best wishes.

Drooping breasts are treated with a lift,  deflated breasts can be treated with breast implants, deflated and drooping breasts require a lift with implants. There is no treatment without surgery.
