Sagging breast after breastfeeding

Sagging breasts with breastfeeding can reduce a woman's self-confidence and make her feel ugly and aged. However, there is a solution to this problem.

Since the birth of the baby, every woman's nightmare about her body is droopy breasts and a fat belly. Breastfeeding increases the bond between mother and baby. Mothers' concerns about breast sagging should not interrupt breastfeeding. It is a time when mother and baby spend time together and express their love naturally.

Mothers can achieve the breast appearance they want after the breastfeeding period with the support of weight control, regular sports, proper breastfeeding, healthy nutrition, and, of course, plastic surgeons .

Pregnancy and postpartum breastfeeding can cause many deformations in the mother's body. Even if mothers reach their ideal weight, they may not like their postpartum body.

During the breastfeeding period, breasts enlarge due to milk production. Saggy breasts may occur due to the formation of stretch marks that did not occur during pregnancy during breastfeeding, loss of elasticity of the breast skin, and improper breastfeeding. Mothers who experience sagging breasts after breastfeeding:

• Having a healthy diet at home,
• By doing sports like Pilates, fitness, and push-ups,
• By activating the chest muscles with massage,
• By performing exercises to work the pectoral muscles,
• By drinking plenty of fluids,
• By drinking enough water,
• By consuming healthy foods, they can provide breast lift to some extent.

Swimming is one of the most effective sports in shaping the whole body. Going swimming after breastfeeding can also help the mother get rid of the saggy breast appearance to some extent.

Of course, plastic surgeons come to the aid of mothers who cannot get the desired result despite doing all these.

During your examination, your plastic surgeon will present the surgical methods that are suitable for you. Breast lift surgery can be performed for mothers who have breast sagging problems, breast augmentation surgery with fat injection, or breast augmentation surgery with silicone breast surgery for mothers with small breasts with a soft and saggy breast appearance like a deflated balloon, and breast reduction surgery for mothers with much larger breasts than they desire after pregnancy and childbirth. Combo surgeries can be performed if the mother wants several of these at once. The results of all breast aesthetic surgeries are long-lasting. It makes the individual closest to her pre-pregnancy body.

Breast aesthetic procedures after breastfeeding

Breast augmentation with implants for deflated and saggy breasts after breastfeeding or breast augmentation with fat injection, which provides full breasts, is often preferred to breast lift surgery.

Some mothers also experience breast asymmetry after breastfeeding. Breast aesthetic surgeries can also eliminate the problem of breast asymmetry.

Breast sagging following breastfeeding shouldn't be a source of concern. If the procedures you try at home don't work, embrace the opportunity to wear the clothes you desire, regain your attractiveness, and be visible in social environments with your self-confidence under the guidance of your plastic surgeon.

How long after breastfeeding can you have a breast lift?

Generally, women are recommended to wait at least six months after breastfeeding before getting any cosmetic procedure, including mastopexy. This allows your body time to adjust and your breast tissue to settle into its final shape following lactation. Providing an exact timescale, however, can be difficult, as every woman is different.

Breast lift exercises for sagging breasts after breastfeeding

By doing breast exercises, the problem of sagging breasts can be eliminated to some extent. Breast lift exercises:

• Take half a kilo or one kilo weight in each hand and lie on your back with your knees bent. Hold the weights and spread your arms to the sides and join them in the air with your elbows slightly bent and palms facing each other. Do the same with your palms facing the opposite direction.


• While lying on the floor in the same position with the weights in your hands, move your arms behind your head and towards your knees.


• While lying on the floor in the same position, move the weights in your hands up and down.


• Take a plank position and do push-ups to protect your lower back.


• Stand up. Spread your feet shoulder-width apart. Raise and lower your arms up and down with the weights in your hands.


• Again, with your feet in the same position, bend your elbows at a 90-degree angle and move your arms back and forth with the weights in your hands.


• Release the weights. Bring both hands together at chest level. Make sure that your shoulders are straight and feel your chest muscles working by doing frequent releases with your hands.


• Above Do an opening and closing movement with one hand in the air as if you are picking fruit from a tree. Lower the hand in the air, raise the other hand, and repeat the same movement.

Doing several sets of these exercises 10 times a day can be effective.

Can saggy breasts be fixed with exercise?

It is possible to shape the breasts in the desired way in the desired style with breast-lifting exercises by doing sports alone and to eliminate sagging to some extent.

The results of breast exercises performed by a woman with mild breast sagging and a woman with excessive breast sagging will not be the same.
