Natural Breast Lift: Get Firm Breasts Naturally
Breast lift exercises and surgical methods are both popular ways to create a more youthful and attractive bosom
. Saggy breasts occur due to stretched out skin due to aging, excessive weight gain and loss, pregnancy and/or lactation. The reason for the sag is that the outer container of skin has become stretched out and won't bounce back. This droopiness can be helped naturally or with the surgical procedure called the mastopexy.
Breasts are composed of skin, fat and glandular tissue rather than muscle. While the size of the fat and glands can't be increased, the chest muscles behind them can be built up to make them protrude and rise into a higher position. Some exercises that can build up the chest region include push-ups and working with weights. Dumbbell bench presses and dumbbell flies are two exercises to try; doing repetitions of all three of these will help to build the chest region. In yoga, the plank position and downward dog variations are also good for building muscles in the chest and shoulder regions. When exercising the region, it's important to include stretching maneuvers, as well. Doing exercises for the back, as well, will provide balance to the workout routine.
It's amazing how having good posture can lift the breasts. Our mothers were all right when they told us to stand up straight! Standing up straight brings the entire body into proper alignment-this brings the internal organs into proper position within the body, alleviates tension in the back and shoulders and lifts the bustline which is quite simple, if you think about it.
The surgical route to eliminate a sagging bustline is called a mastopexy. This is an operation performed by a cosmetic surgeon to remove excess skin and bring the container of stretched out skin into the proper position and size. Some women choose to have this performed with the addition of implants in order to return lost fullness to the region.
A mastopexy alone or one that is combined with augmentation by implants takes approximately two to three hours to perform and is considered to be an outpatient procedure, which means that the patient goes home the same day that the operation was performed. A general anesthetic or local with a sedative will keep the patient pain free. There will be post-op discomfort initially along with some bruising and swelling. There will also be scars which will fade over time, but the patient must remember that scars are permanent.
Whether a woman decides to try natural methods for a breast lift such as exercise or simply improving her posture, or whether she decides to go the surgical route, there are ways to tighten up the sag and end up with a perkier bustline.
