More about sagging breasts

Sagging breasts can be bothersome. Your breasts may feel less firm, your clothes may fit differently, and you may feel less comfortable with the shape or position of your breasts. In addition, sagging breasts can cause physical discomfort, such as neck, shoulder, and back pain.

  • Sagging breasts can be caused by the natural ageing process, in which the skin and breast tissue lose their firmness. Pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight loss and hereditary predisposition can also play a role.
  • A breast lift can help to reposition sagging or slack breasts higher and firmer. Depending on the shape and volume of the breasts, a breast lift can be combined with a breast augmentation or, conversely, a breast reduction. During a personal consultation, we discuss which treatment best suits your wishes and body.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • A breast reduction is suitable if you suffer from breasts that are too large or if their size is not in proportion to your body. During the consultation, the plastic surgeon assesses your situation, discusses your wishes and looks at which treatment suits you best. Whether a combination with a breast lift is desirable is also considered.
  • A breast lift mainly focuses on lifting and firming sagging breasts. With a breast reduction, excess breast tissue is also removed to make the breasts smaller and lighter. For large, heavy and sagging breasts, a breast reduction can be combined with a lift.
  • A breast lift and breast reduction can be combined when the breasts are both large and heavy and sagging. In the breast reduction, excess breast tissue is removed, while the breast lift reshapes the remaining breast and positions it higher. In this way, the breasts can become both smaller and firmer and more lifted.
  • A breast reduction is an operation that takes between two and three hours and is always performed under general anaesthesia. During the treatment, the plastic surgeon will make three incisions, through which excess tissue, fat and skin are removed. The nipple remains attached to the underlying tissue in order to preserve sensation in the nipple. With this treatment, you stay in the clinic for 1 night for observation and may go home the following morning, accompanied.
  • Yes, a breast lift can be combined with a breast augmentation when your breasts have not only started to sag but have also lost volume. During the consultation, the plastic surgeon assesses which treatment best suits your body and wishes, with the aim of achieving a beautiful and natural result.
