It sounds like she has "normal" breast involution. Some women find their nipples or areola "sink" in just a little bit after weaning. The skin may be saggy, I think because the fat in their tissue was replaced by working ducts and now the ducts have involuted. This is what happened to me. Although by the time I hit 40 years old, the fat was back due to normal female changes called perimenopause (due to slight weight gain)! I can see how this would worry her. I don't know anything about the creams but I have looked at some of them. Going on the birth control pill, which mimics pregnancy can also make a woman's breasts swell.
