What causes breasts to sag?
No other part of the body is more affected by the force of gravity than the breasts.
From the moment a woman’s chest is fully grown, in her late teens to mid-twenties, there’s a battle against the downward pull.
While an average pair of breasts weighs around 2lbs to 4lbs, there’s not much of a natural support structure to keep them in place.
The condition even has its own medical name — ptosis — and droopiness can be graded by doctors on a three-stage scale.
In pert, young breasts, the nipple is usually above the line where the base of the breast meets the chest — or the inframammary fold.
By stage two, the nipple is around one to three inches below that point.
At stage three, the breast hangs more than 3cm below, with the nipple often pointing down to the floor.
Over a lifetime, a woman with heavy breasts may see her nipples drop by as much as ten or 11cms if they descend to her waistline.
