Anatomy of the breasts.
Before looking up how to lift sagging breasts or reduce sagging breasts, you need to understand the anatomy of the breasts. The breasts are made up from many different types of tissue known as glandular fatty and fibrous tissue which lie over the pectoralis muscle along the chest wall.
The glandular tissues are composed of lobules and milk ducts. During lactation, lobules and milk ducts are responsible for producing and transporting milk to the nipple. The glands within the breast are surrounded by a layer of fatty tissue, which helps give shape to the breasts and makes them soft.
Suspensory ligaments which are made of fibrous or connective tissue intertwined amongst the breast glands and milk ducts. These ligaments help anchor the breasts to the chest wall.

Factors contribute to sagging.
1. Aging process.
Many factors can contribute to sagging breasts, but aging and gravity play a significant role in these changes. Just like facial skin, the skin around the breasts gradually loses its elasticity as the underlying support structure becomes stretched and weakened over time.
Additionally, the ligaments attaching the breasts to the chest wall weaken and stretch due to gravity.
2. Pregnancy.
The breasts enlarge during pregnancy and breastfeeding, which also causes the skin to stretch. Since the breasts shrink after pregnancy, the previously stretched skin will sag.
Finally, fluctuations in weight and even hormonal changes can also affect the appearance of the breasts. The combination of these factors can lead to drooping and sagging.
A post-pregnancy breast lift will help restore firmer and more attractive breasts, enhance your body contours, and give you a beautifully youthful and vibrant body.
