There are many advertised secrets and potions to keep your boobs perky, but no cream or lotion can change the natural aging process of your breasts. The most effective way to treat sagging boobs is with cosmetic breast surgery such as a breast lift or implant.
Exercise and wearing a properly fitting bra can help keep your breasts perky. Avoiding yo-yo weight changes can also delay breast sagging.
How to tell if your breasts are perky or saggy?
The best way to tell whether or not your breasts are perky is by looking at the crease underneath your bust (the inframammary fold). If your nipple is above this crease, you have perky breasts. However, if your nipple is below this crease, it means that your breasts are beginning to sag.
The good news is that there are effective methods for keeping your breasts perky. These include using high-quality skin products, maintaining a healthy weight, wearing a bra that fits you properly, and exercising regularly. In addition, drinking plenty of water is important for the health of your breast tissue and can help delay the onset of sagging.
Although there are many advertised secrets and potions for preventing sagging, the truth is that no cream, potion or lotion can completely reverse sagging breasts. The reason is that sagging is a natural part of the aging process, and for the breasts, this means loss of elasticity.
The best and only way to significantly improve sagging is with plastic surgery, such as breast lift or breast implant. A breast lift or mastopexy can address the sagging of both small and large breasts, as well as providing tighter and firmer breasts with a new shape. In some cases, a combination of these techniques may also be used for more dramatic results.
Causes of sagging breasts
There are several factors that can lead to sagging breasts. These include:
The most obvious cause of sagging is simply age. As people get older, the Cooper’s ligaments in their breasts lose their strength and structure, which causes them to droop.
Another factor that can cause sagging is a person’s weight. People who are very overweight can have a difficult time supporting their breasts, which leads to them drooping. It is important to find a healthy, balanced diet and exercise routine that will help keep the body in good shape.
Finally, sun damage can also cause sagging. This is because the skin on the breasts is particularly sensitive and should be protected from the sun at all times. If not, this can result in premature aging and destruction of collagen, which leads to sagging.
Some women choose not to wear a bra, which can also cause the tissues in their breasts to stretch and lead to sagging. This is especially true if the woman works out and is constantly pulling on her nipples. Another reason to always wear a supportive bra is to avoid sleeping on your stomach, as this can cause the nipples to be pushed against a mattress for extended periods of time and contribute to sagging. The good news is that there are many things a person can do to help minimise sagging of the breasts, such as: eating a balanced diet, exercising regularly, staying hydrated and not smoking.
Treatments for sagging breasts
Many women are unhappy with their sagging breasts. Thankfully, it is perfectly normal for a woman’s breasts to change shape over time. Breasts can become perky at a young age, but over time, they may start to sag as collagen breaks down and gravity puts more pressure on the ligaments of the Cooper’s ligaments. The good news is that there are treatments to prevent or reverse sagging breasts. While a few home remedies like rubbing cucumbers and eggs on your breasts are unproven, some products can help mitigate the effects of aging on your breasts.
Regular exercise and a well-balanced diet can keep your breasts healthy and firm. Maintaining an optimal body weight is also important because it decreases the downward pull of gravity on your breasts. Additionally, using a well-fitting bra that provides adequate support can be helpful in keeping your boobs perky.
If you are having difficulty with sagging boobs, a consult with one of Pristyn Care’s board-certified aesthetic surgeons can help. Our doctors can offer surgical and non-surgical procedures to contour your nipples and breasts.
Surgical treatment for sagging breasts is called mastopexy, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). This procedure lifts the nipples and breasts, which helps to correct ptosis, a condition that causes your nipple to droop or become less prominent. The surgery can also reduce the size of your areolas, if they have become too large over time.
Keeping your breasts perky
Despite all the potions, lotions and empty promises, there is no miracle cure for perky breasts. While many habits, like healthy eating and wearing a bra that fits well can help, there is no way to reverse the effects of gravity on a woman’s breasts. Over time, the breast tissues break down and lose elasticity, which causes the formerly perky boobs to drop lower on the chest.
This sagging is caused by the Cooper’s ligaments, which hold the breast tissue up, and by changes in the breast tissue and fat composition. It is a natural part of the aging process, and while there are products that can delay this sagging, there is no non-surgical solution for it.
In addition to maintaining a healthy weight, using a well-fitting bra and exercising the chest muscles (which will tighten them) can help with this. There is no such thing as a “breast lift” that can overcome the effect of gravity, but exercises such as push-ups can be very effective in building chest muscle.
The only sure-fire way to achieve perky boobs is through cosmetic surgery, such as a breast lift, fat transfer or breast reduction surgery.
