Firming Breast Skin After Explant and No Mastopexy?

Question

61 y/o, very thin. 10 days pot op explant with no Mastopexy done. Is there anything or product to help firm up the breast skin? Any good collegan cream etc.... I know there is no magic in a jar, but anything worth a try? Thank you for any suggestions! I am still wearing a compression sports bra and will continue for awhile longer.

I would not waste your money on such items promising anything of the sort.  Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of breast augmentations and breast augmentation revisions each year.  Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results.  Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Sorry, but there is no reliable cream/lotion available to help “firm up” the skin. Patience and time are your best friends at this point.

I would recommend continuing to wear a compressive bra during your healing time, which is six months. There are no magical or special creams out there that will actually tone up sagging breast tissue that once was stretched with implants and pregnancy. If after six months you still have issues, I would suggest seeing your plastic surgeon for consultation about a lift. Right now, you need to heal.

David Bogue, MD · Answer

The best answer? Compression and time. Give yourself a minimum of 6 months. Unfortunately as you noted, there are no "magic lotions/potions" for skin contracture.
