What causes breasts to sag?
Aging
Simply put, aging causes breasts to sag. As we get older, our breast tissue ligaments break down, causing skin to lose elasticity. The tissues and fat that lift your breasts decrease, resulting in sagginess.
The process is similar to what happens in the face; tissue and structure breaks down, causing sagging, loose skin and a sinking look. The only way to correct volume loss in the face long-term is through a facelift.
Weight gain/loss
If you fluctuate in weight frequently throughout your life, you may experience more sagginess and loose skin in your breasts due to tissues stretching and changing shape.
Smoking
Smoking cigarettes causes elastin and collagen to break down in the body, accelerating aging internally and externally. If you’re looking to undergo sagging breast surgery in Tuscaloosa, you can’t be an active smoker.
Smoking interrupts the body’s healing process and can interfere with your otherwise stunning results! It can also cause complications during surgery, and the best plastic surgeons are well-trained in taking every safety precaution possible.
Motherhood
Being a mother can come with a lot of complications. Breast ligaments and tissue stretch as your breasts get larger during pregnancy. Some women’s breasts can bounce back to how they were, while for others the skin remains stretched and causes a sagging appearance.
