There are numerous factors that can influence the size and shape of your breasts as you develop and age. Puberty, hormones, and weight fluctuations will all contribute to changes in your breasts. It's best to wait until you're around 18-20 years old to have a better understanding of how your breasts will develop. However, it's important to note that even after this age, your breasts can still change due to factors like pregnancy and weight fluctuations. If you're concerned about saggy breasts, consulting with a surgeon when you're ready can help determine if a breast lift is necessary. In some cases, using breast implants can provide volume and a lifting effect, while in others, a breast lift surgery may be required. Have a great day!

Thank you for sharing your concerns with us. At your age, your body is still undergoing development, and I recommend waiting until you are fully grown, at least 18 years old, before being evaluated by a surgeon to determine if surgical intervention is necessary. Please note that since you are a minor, if you wish to pursue surgical options before turning 18, you will need consent from your parents. Respectfully
