How does breast sagging occur?

Firstly, the mentioned gravity is not decisive in the sagging process; gravity is a factor that determines the direction of sagging. After all, gravity is effective in the twenties and in the fifties. However, we see much less sagging in the twenties. The breast has ligaments called Cooper's ligaments. With these ligaments, the breast tissue is suspended to the rib cage. Over time, these ligaments begin to weaken, and the tissue inside the breast exerts pressure on the skin. The increase in the weight of the breast tissue (especially during pregnancy when breast volume increases) increases the pressure on the skin. Elastic, quality skin can resist this pressure for a while. Excessive sun exposure, skin dryness, hormonal factors, and aging deteriorate skin quality and cause it to lose elasticity. Skin with stretch marks is particularly more unfortunate in this regard. Sagging occurs with the loss of elasticity in the skin and the gradual loosening of Cooper's ligaments. The balance between the structures holding the breast and the structures pushing it down is very important. As this balance deteriorates in favor of the pushing structures, sagging occurs more.
