What methods can be used to correct sagging breasts

For some women, it is very distressing that their breasts sag. Breast sagging often affects the overall beauty and causes certain psychological shadows. If breast sagging is severe, certain methods can be used for treatment, such as breast ptosis correction surgery, vertical incision breast lift, etc. For less serious cases, certain corrections can be made by wearing a bra.

1. Non-surgical treatment

Wearing a suitable bra can only support sagging breasts and is suitable for women with mild sagging breasts that have no obvious impact on their life and work.

2. Surgery

Surgery to lift sagging nipples and breast tissue to their normal position, remove loose skin, and reshape breasts to create a firmer shape is the only effective way to correct any degree of sagging breasts.

(1) Surgical methods for correcting ptosis of the breast can be divided into double-ring breast lift, vertical incision breast lift and inverted T-incision breast lift according to the location of the incision. The degree of breast sagging and breast enlargement is different, and the method of choice is also different.

1) Double-ring breast lift: Two circular incisions around the areola are used to remove loose skin, leaving incision scars at the areola-pigment junction. This method is suitable for mild breast sagging. It is not suitable for women with moderate to severe breast sagging or breast enlargement who need breast reduction surgery.

2) Vertical incision breast lift: Based on the double ring method, a vertical incision is added to the lower pole of the breast to remove loose skin. It can also reduce the diameter of the breast base and the volume of the breast, and increase the convexity of the breast. This method is suitable for various degrees of breast sagging.

3) Inverted T-incision breast lift: Based on the vertical incision method, a horizontal incision is added to the inframammary fold to remove loose skin, which can simultaneously reduce the breast base diameter and breast volume. Because the transverse incision scar in the inframammary fold is more obvious, this method is currently limited to very severe breast ptosis and breast hypertrophy.
