3. Support your boobs with the right bra

In choosing a regular brassiere for daily wear purposes, one should go for supportive/ underwired cups with an appropriate size fit. The breasts should not be spilling out from the cups nor should there be unsightly bra bulges. The band should feel snug, not too tight and not riding up in the back. The straps should feel comfortable without any slack.

If you are a sporty sort of person, wearing a proper sports bra will be an essential. The correct bra shouldn’t be restrictive but comfortable and breathable as you exercise. Any excessive boob bouncing should be avoided. Otherwise, the constant gravitational downward pressure will cause ligaments to overstretch and the breast to sag. Proper bust care and support will firm up sagging breasts and prevent them from drooping.

5. Collagen breasts masks

Pamper your boobs with a touch of gold. Go for collagen breast masks to tighten and improve the elasticity of your skin. This would firm and tone the breast skin and muscles, thereby lifting your breasts naturally and getting rid of that saggy appearance in a short time span.

6. Surgery

Get corrective surgery to fully rid yourself of that stubborn sagging skin. A breast lift tightens skin around the chest area and removes sagging tissue while working to lift and define breasts. A breast lift with implants restores fullness via silicone implants. Of course, surgery should be a last resort and only be pursued when all other procedures fail and you absolutely want to rid yourself of any sagginess.

7. Hot and cold water therapy

Petite Breasts advices that the next time you find yourself under the shower, keep switching the temperature of water from hot to cool. Two minutes of showering under hot water. Then one minute of showering under cool (or even cold if you can take it) water. Do this every day if possible. Such therapy can improve blood flow (oxygen and nutrient supply) to your breast tissues as well as help with collagen production in your skin. And you already know how better blood circulation and improved collagen production can help your breasts be firmer and more perky. With that said, take it slow and easy (don’t start with too hot or too cold) until you get used to it.
