Can a Mommy Makeover Address Both Sagging and Deflation of the Breasts?

For many women, pregnancy, breastfeeding, and weight fluctuations can leave the breasts sagging, deflated, or both — which can, in turn, have an impact on confidence and self-esteem. With mommy makeover, you can address both sagging and deflated breasts simultaneously, helping to regain a youthful, lifted, feminine look you can feel proud of. At Watt Plastic Surgery & Med Spa in Tampa, FL, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Tony Watt offers advanced breast rejuvenation using techniques like the internal bra method and the use of GalaFLEX® to provide superior lift and support. Keep reading to learn more about how a mommy makeover can target both sagging and deflation of the breasts.

Why do breasts start to sag?

Breast sagging, also known as ptosis, and deflation are common concerns for women who have gone through pregnancy, breastfeeding, or significant weight changes. Sagging occurs when the breast tissue stretches, and the skin loses elasticity, causing the breasts to hang lower on the chest. Deflation happens when the volume of the breasts decreases, leaving them with a flattened or hollow appearance. Both issues can occur separately or together, resulting in a loss of breast shape, volume, and firmness. While exercise and lifestyle changes can help with overall body contouring, they cannot correct sagging or deflated breasts — but a mommy makeover with breast enhancement can.

How does a mommy makeover lift sagging breasts?

A mommy makeover is a customized combination of procedures designed to restore the body, often focusing on the breasts, abdomen, and other areas impacted by pregnancy and childbirth. For the breasts, Dr. Watt offers several advanced techniques to lift and reshape them, including:

• Breast lift
• Breast augmentation
• Internal bra breast lift technique

These options, which can be performed individually or in combination, depending on your needs and goals, can help to correct both sagging and deflation and allow you to achieve a more youthful, perky breast shape. Dr. Watt is well-known for his expertise in using GalaFLEX, a bioresorbable scaffold that acts like an internal bra, offering extra support and lifting for long-lasting results.

What is the internal bra breast lift, and how does it work?

Dr. Watt's internal bra technique, which involves the use of GalaFLEX, provides an extra layer of support by creating an internal scaffold beneath the breast tissue. Over time, the GalaFLEX material is absorbed by the body, leaving behind stronger natural tissue that helps maintain the lift and shape of the breasts. This technique is particularly beneficial for women with significant sagging, as it offers added support that a standard breast lift or augmentation may not provide. Dr. Watt is a leader in this advanced breast rejuvenation technique and teaches other surgeons how to effectively use GalaFLEX for enhanced, long-lasting results.

Will my bra size change after mommy makeover surgery?

Patients who undergo a breast augmentation, breast lift, or other breast enhancement procedure as part of a mommy makeover may require a different bra size due to added volume, new breast shape, and other changes made to the breasts. Dr. Watt and our knowledgeable team will discuss your surgical plans in detail and cover the things you can expect after a mommy makeover so you can go into your procedure with confidence and excitement.
