“Any amount of smoking weakens and ages skin by decreasing the blood supply to the skin surface,” says Edwards.Įxposing your face to UV rays without a protective coating of sunscreen can lead to premature wrinkles, and it has the same effect on breast sag by stretching out collagen and damaging skin, says Edwards. RELATED: How Yo-Yo Dieting Hurts Your HealthĮven your breasts can’t escape the damage cigarettes do. Each time you gain and lose weight, breast tissue becomes more slack, kind of like old tights, says Michael Edwards, M.D., a breast surgeon and president of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. But yo-yo dieting 30 or so lbs over and over? Definitely. And considering that a recent UCLA study found that breast tissue ages two to three years faster than the rest of your body, you might want to quit any habit linked to a flaccid pair-like these.Ĭycling back and forth between the same five to 10 pounds probably won’t make a dent in your set.
Here's the thing: Some boob behaviors that seem like they have nothing to do with sag can actually contribute to it-so if you avoid them, your breasts will be better off. If your mother had a droopy pair, you might be predisposed to one, too (thanks, Mom!). Having a baby, breastfeeding, and racking up more birthdays all contribute to a loss of elasticity of collagen, the connective tissue under the skin-leaving your set more deflated than firm.
We hate to deliver depressing news, but the fact is, some breast sag is inevitable.
