We all are aware that as we grow old, our breasts start turning a little less perky as the tissues age a few years faster than the rest of the body. While we cannot do much to arrest the biological process, there are a few other things we can keep in mind to prevent premature sagging of breasts.
Mentioned below are seven everyday habits that can cause your breasts to sag.
1. Bad Posture
Along with the back, sitting or walking in a bad posture can also affect your breasts. Staying in a bad posture for a long time causes your breasts to stay in an unnatural position for a longer period, and this leads to sagging breasts.
2. Smoking
Smoking reduces the amount of collagen in the body, which in turn hampers the blood circulation. Because of this, the skin starts losing its elasticity. This makes your breasts droop.
3. Lack Of Exercise
Lack of exercise or heavy workouts, both can cause your breasts to sag. However, if you are the one who opts for intense workouts, then it is essential to wear a proper sports bra as back and forth repetitive motions can lead to sagging breasts.
4. Constant Fluctuation In Weight
A balanced diet is very important to maintain healthy breasts, and constant weight gain or loss can cause stretching of the breast tissues, leading to sagging breasts.
5. Wearing A Bra That Is Not Fit For You
Wearing an ill-fitting bra can worsen the situation as the more the breasts move around, the more stress it creates on the skin. Thus, it is always recommended to figure out your exact bra size so that it holds your breasts up firmly. A perfect bra is the best solution to prevent your breast from sagging.
6. Skipping Sunscreen
You might be thinking, “Who applies sunscreen there?!” But the breasts and cleavage do absorb harmful UV rays from the sun and get sunburned quickly. This causes premature aging of the skin and makes it look dull and loose. To prevent the occurrence of wrinkles on your breast, it is recommended to avoid sun exposure as much as possible.
7. Excessive Alcohol Consumption
Excessive alcohol consumption can cause a lot of damage to your health and skin as well. The elasticity of the skin is lost, and soon, the breasts start sagging, and the skin becomes loose, causing wrinkles.
By avoiding the above practices, you can help keep your breasts firm and young-looking for a long time.
