Breast implants and losing weight



Recommended Posts

So, I had a breast augmentation in 2008 and gained about 50 lbs after it.

I am wondering if I lose the weight, I'm wondering if my the skin around my breasts will sag my implants.

Anyone with this problem too?

I consulted my surgeon for an augmentation n asked him the same Q n this was his answer. "if u gained some weight n it was noticeable in the breast then you will loose weight around the breast which can cause sagging". So if ur breast increased in size most likely some but you won't know to what extent until u loose the weight.

Another factor is where the implant was placed...if it is under the muscle there will be less sag than if it is over the muscle.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
