What Causes Sagging Breasts After Ozempic?

Breasts are primarily made of two types of tissue. The glandular breast tissue is functional, while the rest of the breast is made of fat. When you lose weight, your body burns fat from anywhere in your body, including your breasts. As a result, they can lose volume and start to sag or look flat and droopy. Because medications like Ozempic help people lose weight quickly, the effect on your breasts can be even more noticeable because it happens rapidly.

What are the Best Treatments for Sagging Breasts After Ozempic?

Dr. Waltzman specializes in shaping attractive, proportionate breasts that balance your figure. During your consultation, he will assess your needs and recommend a course of treatment that will help you correct the effects of weight loss.

When your breasts lose volume, they often droop, and the nipple and areola start to point downward instead of forward. During a breast lift, Dr. Waltzman uses incisions around the areola and under the breast to remove excess skin, lifting the breasts back to their youthful, perky position and adjusting the areolas to their proper location. 

A breast lift is typically recommended if most of your concerns involve loose skin and sagging, but do not need to add or restore lost volume. The results may be smaller than your breasts were before weight loss but will have their natural, perky shape back.

If you hope to restore lost volume while correcting sagging breasts, Dr. Waltzman may recommend breast augmentation. This customizable procedure can be performed using saline or silicone breast implants. It can also be performed using fat transfer, a procedure that collects fat using liposuction and transfers it to your breasts. 

Breast augmentation can be performed with or without a breast lift. Individuals with significant drooping will often benefit from a combined procedure to remove excess skin and restore their breast shape and volume. The goal is always to provide natural-looking results that help you look better in your clothes and feel more confident about your body.

What Results Can I Expect From Sagging Breast Treatments?

Individuals who have breast augmentation, with or without a lift, can expect an increase in breast volume immediately after the procedure. If you have a breast lift, you will also notice that your breasts sit in a more lifted position on your chest and that your areolas are in their proper location.

What is Recovery Like After Sagging Breast Treatments?

You will experience swelling and discomfort in the area after the procedure that is easily managed with prescription medications for a few days followed by over-the-counter medications. Individuals typically return to work in one to two weeks, although those with physically active jobs may need additional time.

Am I a Good Candidate for Sagging Breast Treatments After Ozempic?

During your consultation, Dr. Waltzman will discuss your concerns and goals in detail, allowing him to develop a unique treatment plan customized for you. Good candidates have reasonable expectations and are generally healthy. Each procedure has its own requirements to determine if they are recommended for you.

We recommend waiting until you have achieved a stable weight and completed your weight loss journey before having these procedures. If you continue to lose weight after a breast lift or augmentation, you may continue to experience drooping or volume loss. We will discuss your weight loss process and goals during your first visit.
