Mastoptosis, or sagging breasts, is a natural and, alas, irreversible process, which is characterized by a decrease in volume, deformation and loss of firmness and elasticity of the breast tissue. Today, there are two main reasons for this process.. Let's start with the first - breastfeeding. In a young woman, almost the entire volume of the mammary gland is glandular tissue (it is responsible for milk production during feeding). When a woman finishes breastfeeding, the glandular tissue greatly decreases in volume and gradually - with age and with the number of feedings - disappears. This is the main reason for the loss of volume, and when the volume becomes smaller, then gravity already does its job.. The second reason is drastic weight loss.. Since adipose tissue is present in the composition of the mammary gland, then if the girl decided to lose weight, the breast will also decrease in size. Will shrink and lose shape.

If a woman refuses breastfeeding and throughout her life avoids sudden weight gain and sudden weight loss, then such a phenomenon as sagging will not affect her until the skin, due to age-related changes, loses its elasticity. Most often this happens by the age of 60 - usually before menopause, a woman's skin is in good condition. If the gland retains its volume, then it is like a tightly inflated ball, and if the volume decreases, that is, there is less tissue inside, then the ball deflates a little and the chest sags faster and loses its shape. So gravity is more of a contributing factor than a determinant.

Yes, after feeding, the shape of the breast, as a rule, changes (cases when the breast returns to its original state are rare), but we must not forget that breastfeeding is very necessary, and not only for the child, but also for the mother herself. The fact is that it reduces the risk of tumors.. A woman who did not breastfeed is at risk for breast cancer, while a woman who breastfeed - and the more, the better - the likelihood of falling into the risk group is significantly lower.

In plastic surgery, there is a certain gradation of mastoptosis, but from a medical point of view, the classification of this phenomenon is of no interest. Sagging is a natural physiological process that does not threaten a woman's health and is purely aesthetic in nature..

Prevention of mastoptosis Unfortunately, today there are no scientifically proven ways to prevent mastoptosis. Sports and beauty care are indirect measures, the effectiveness of which is minimal. There are no muscles in the mammary gland, which means that you can train only those muscles on which the gland itself lies - the pectoralis minor and major muscles. Yes, if you play sports, then you will have a more elastic " Fat and glandular tissue are responsible for the shape of the gland - that's all. The same applies to all kinds of cosmetic preparations for the breast - the cream cannot in any way support and even more so model the shape of the breast, this is exclusively skin care. Moreover, with all your desire, you will not see positive changes from such a departure.. If the effect is, then at the level of millimeters - you can't catch it with your eye. The main and only thing that a woman can do as prevention of mastoptosis is to monitor her weight and not to lose weight dramatically. Everything.

Wearing a bra is also not a way to prevent sagging.. You may well refuse this wardrobe item if you have small breasts and a bra is more of a covering function than a supportive one.. But if you have large breasts or you are actively involved in sports, then a bra is certainly necessary so that the skin and the inner frame of the breast do not stretch.. And whether your breasts are large or small depends on the proportions: the third size for a large girl and for a petite one is fundamentally different things.. And to determine whether you need a bra just for you, you just need to stand naked in front of a mirror and see if your breasts sag or not.. If it does not sag, you can safely do without it..

All judgments that wearing a bra allegedly leads to atrophy of the muscles that support the chest is complete nonsense.. There are no muscles supporting the chest - they just don't exist in anatomy.

Unfortunately, if the breast is still saggy, and you want to restore its shape, then there is only one way - plastic. And if this is a good clinic and a good doctor, then there is nothing to be afraid of. In addition, now almost all breast operations do not affect the breast tissue, and the implant itself is placed under the muscles. That is, the muscle becomes a kind of lining between the implant and the breast tissue, which allows the woman to subsequently breastfeed calmly (however, after feeding, it is necessary to make a correction, since the breast will still lose its shape). It is also worth noting that today there is no universal operation that would suit everyone.

Each woman needs an individual approach (a professional plastic surgeon) and her own type of surgery, depending on her complexion, the size of the glands and their condition.

As a summary, we can say that sagging is an inevitable process that you just need to come to terms with.. But if he has reached the stage when a woman realizes that it is psychologically difficult for her to live with this, you can safely go to plastic surgeons and restore previous forms.
