Is there any way to enlarge your breasts with pills or any other product without surgery?

Nonsurgical breast enlargment not ready for prime time

Obviously it would be great if there were options for breast enlargment without surgery or implants but we just aren't there yet. Several herbal formulations have been marketed over the years but none has proven safe and effective. These things are not regulated by the FDA and some of them might actually be dangerous. If they work, it is by stimulating the estrogen receptors in breast cells, which could increase risk of breast cancer. So much research needs to be done before this option... more

Non-surgical breast augmentation

There is a suction device which is akin to the penile enlargement devices which can non-surgically enlarge the breast using external suchtion and functions much like a lactation pump.

Non-surgical breast augmentation doesn't work

There is no such thing as a non-surgical breast augmentation. The only way to have the breast made larger is either with implants or autologous tissue.

No

Hi there- There is no safe and effective way to enlarge your breasts without surgery. There are now many excellent and sage alternatives available to healthy women, but all require a short operation. Do your homework, think about your goals, visit with a surgeon Board Certified by The American Board of Plastic Surgery, and decide if what you need to spend and go through is worth having what you want. You'll know what's in your best interests. Good luck!

Not really.

Hi!     I think devices will waste your money and pills may even be dangerous.  Here's my advice:  If you are well motivated, surgical breast augmentation is safe and effective.  If you are not sure, leave yourself alone, for now, anyway.

Non-surgical breast augmentation not possible

In our society, we all tend to think in terms of taking a pill to improve whatever it is we don't like. You can not enlarge your breast with diet and excercise (or a pill) so you must decide to either live with your current situation, or have a predictable operation which represents the number one most commonly performed cosmetic surgery procedure in the country. Over 350,000 breast augmentations were performed last year. Other than surgery, which is the most reliable, there is a machine... more

Not predictably...

There is a suction device called Brava that might produce modest increase in breast size but its use is combersome at best with the need to wear suction cups for hours on end each day for months. Otherwise, no pills with long-term safety studies are currently available or appoved by the FDA. Remember that the breast gland is one of the most highly oncogenic (cancer-forming) tissues of the female body. Stimulating its growth does occur with certain hormonal therapies but safety as concerns... more

Non surgical breast augmentation is not really possible

Hello Over the years a number of nonsurgical bra-like contraptions have been used. The results are very modest and disappear as soon as you stop using the device. There are also pills that are supposed to help, usually sold through tabloid magazines. In my experience, I have met a lot of women who have spent a lot of money pursuing nonsurgical augmentation, and I have never met (or heard of) a single one who succeeded. Have a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon to... more
