Restylane injections are impractical for breast augmentation

Can Restylane injections add volume to my breasts?

I’ve read about fat injections to get bigger breasts, but what about using Restylane?

Restylane injection for breast enhancement/enlargement has not been studied in a significant manner. It would take a large volume of Restylane or hyaluronic acid to make the breast significantly larger, making the use of Restylane too expensive to be practical for temporary breast enlargement.

The only FDA-approved way to augment the breast is with silicone or saline breast implants. Silicone or saline breast augmentation is safe, effective, and it is permanent.
