What Causes Sagging Breasts Postpartum?

default
Posted on Wed, 8 Mar 2017
Question: Hi. My wife is 24 years old and is scheduled to have breast implants put in later in March. She has already had the consultation, (3d imaging, body photo taken to see what new implants would look like etc.). She is getting the gummy bear texture implants. My question is this.....The procedure is pretty expensive, so if we plan on having kids in the next year or couple years, what does that mean for the implants? Will they move? Get odd shaped? Are we going to have to have another surgery for the implants after having children? I'm/We are trying to be wise with some of our spending money, however this is something she really wants. Just want to know the probability of this procedure being ruined and having to be done again after children.

I am dr.kakkar (dermatologist). I have gone through your query and i have noted your concern.
Post pregnancy there might be some sagging or loosening of breast as compared to the relatively firm breast before pregnancy which might result in a change on appearance and require correction.
