Dr. Kim Meathrel, MD, FRCSC answers: Breast enhancement options: any alternatives to implants?

i am not sure i should get breast implants.  it scares me to get plastic surgery.  i want to know: what are the non-surgical ways to enhance my bust?  are there natural remedies to breast enlargement?

The only device on the market to nonsurgically enhance breasts is the BRAVA system. This has been shown in clinical trials to increase breast size by an average of 150cc or 1/2 to 1 cup size. The long term results are not yet known.

The device is not meant to replace implants since it only gives a small increase in size but may work for women who are looking for a small increase in volume or for women who have had some deflation of their breasts after pregnancy/breastfeeding and are looking to return to their previous breast size.

For a larger increase in size and more predictable results, breast implants remain the only option.
