Learn more about how weight loss and pregnancy affect breast implants – and what you can do to address these changes – below.
How Weight Loss Affects Breast Implants
When you lose a lot of weight, the surrounding breast tissue and skin may lose volume and elasticity. This can make implants seem less full or create asymmetry.
Weight loss also impacts the natural tissue supporting the implants. It can cause them to shift or sag.
You should absolutely be proud of your weight loss and body transformation. However, you might also feel dissatisfied with the way your breasts look afterward.
How Pregnancy Impacts Breast Implants
Pregnancy brings a host of hormonal and physical changes, many of which affect the breasts.
During pregnancy, your breasts may increase in size as they prepare for breastfeeding. This often stretches the skin and surrounding tissue.
Breast fullness usually decreases after pregnancy or breastfeeding. This can cause sagging, implant displacement, or asymmetry.
Even if the implants remain intact, natural breast tissue changes can alter their overall appearance.
The Solution: Breast Implant Revision Surgery
If weight loss or pregnancy has altered the look of your implants, breast implant revision surgery can help. This procedure allows for various adjustments, including:
- Repositioning implants
- Replacing implants with a different size or type
- Combining the surgery with a breast lift to address sagging
At Hamptons Plastic Surgery, Dr. Pfeifer creates customized plans to address your concerns and ensure you’re satisfied with the outcomes.
