Help for prune boobs

From what a friend has told me really the only solution is surgery. However, some added pec muscle should help fill them out as well.

i feel ya. i was at 150 now at 110 and am also now a 34B. Not too sure about how to help. althoguh i do recall there are foods out there that you can to increase your bust size. Not sure how true it is though

Rapid weightloss is usually the cause for loose skin on the body, but everyone has a different reaction to this as the elasticity of each person's skin varies. If it's been a while since you've lost the weight and the issue hasn't improved, then it's probably going to take surgery to fix it.

I have the same problem, and after much research, here is what I do to combat further prune-ness, and manage general aging.

First, use a body scrub with a net scrubby daily. The friction and massage increases blood flow, which improves the cell and skin renewal process. I like the ones that have essential oils or even olive oil, since they also moisturize. Next, slather, and I mean slather, your skin with moisturizer both morning and night. I use Bio Oil body oil, Vitamin E oil, collagen cream and anything else that says it's for aging, sagging skin. I use this on my neck, breast area, and the area around and under my arm pits, as that skin seems to be the same texture and is also getting "pruney"

I believe it is working, at least there seems to be a stop to it getting worse, and I can feel good I'm taking good care of my skin too.

Well done on the weight loss. If you have just lost the weight - then the skin will take a while to adjust. I use bio oil and also got fitted for better bras - really you should not be slipping out.

I would also agree with weight lifting. Building up the muscle does help perk them up a bit.

Surgery can go one of two ways:

The first is an actual lift. They will remove the excess tissue and perk them up. The downside is that you lose size because of losing skin.

The more common procedure is to insert an implant. This will increase size, but going up a cup size might be enough to make them look real and still keep them proportional. Scarring is minimal and incision can be done in many places including the armpit and on the underside of the breast near the ribs. Replacement of the implant is periodic as well.

I agree that you should get fitted and buy yourself several really good bras! I bought new bras last year after I was finished nursing my twins, and it has done wonders for my self-confidence. Of course, now that I'm about 15 pounds lighter, my bras are getting baggy! I guess I need to go get fitted again. If you have a Nordstrom nearby, I'd highly recommend them.

Wow at the way people just blurt out "Surgery"
As if going under general anaesthesia is without life endangering risks.
Breast tissue is mostly fat, when one does any of the following "lose weight/get older, or go through menopause/have kid/s, they will stretch the skin and also with menopause hormonal changes will also mean loss of breast fat/volume.

The good news is that its a natural phenomenon, and depending on how you feel about it, you can live with it with attitude adjustment.

The bad news is, short of gaining back your weight, there is nothing that can be done without going under the knife and its attendant risks.

:huh:

It's loose skin. It's only going to rebound so much. If the person still isn't happy after the skin is finished rebounding, the only options are to deal with it or have surgery.

Vigorous motorboating? Just a thought.

that is always fun....first in line to get some vigorous motorboating. :drinker: :drinker:
