Breast lift?
by Mrs06chris, Aug 01, 2007 12:00AM
I would like a breast lift after I'm done having and breastfeeding my third child. I'm currently 29 weeks pregnant. When not pregnant my breast size is a 40D. My question is does having a breast lift help with the appearance of stretch marks? Thank you

A breast lift effectively removes excess skin from a breast that sags from too large a skin envelope. While some stretch marks will be excised, the remaining stretch marks will often be improved just from the skin tightening. The effect therefore is an indirect one and not fully predictable.
