Sagging

Breast ptosis, or sagging of the breasts, is a very common condition. The breasts, like other parts of your body, will change over time. Your breasts might seem to sit lower on the chest, the nipple may point downwards, and the top of the breast may not be as full as it was.

The severity of breast ptosis is measured by the position of the nippled in relation to the fold of the breast. A nipple that sits above the line of the fold is considered normal. If your nipple is even with the fold, it’s first-degree ptosis. Second-degree ptosis is when the nipple is below the fold, and third-degree ptosis is when the nipple is pointing downward.
