Nonsurgical Breast Enlargement and Enhancement
I had a breast reduction but I feel that the surgeon took off too much from my breasts. I thought I was doing the right thing, but I later found out it was unnecessary; I went to my primary care physician, and I was told that all I had to do was lose weight and my breast would have went down. My breast are now too small for my body size. Are there any non-surgical options for increasing my breast size?

There are at present no non-surgical ways to increase breast size.
If your breasts are too small after reduction, you have only one choice and that is breast augmentation to gain volume. This is a simple and safe operation. If you don't want to go this route, for now you will have to learn to live with your breasts, as is. Anything else is a waste of money.

Returning breast size after breast reduction
The Brava external compression system can increase breast density but it does stretch the skin as well which can result in some droop with the increase in size. The goal of surgery is to attempt a size correction and a droop correction. Other than augmentation, no other measures will be helpful.

Non-surgical breast augmentation is not possible.
Hi.
You must be very upset now that you have had a breast reduction and your breasts are too small. I am afraid your only realistic options are to live the way you are or to have a breast augmentation with small breasts implants. I know that's not what you wanted to hear!

Non-surgical breast enhancement
There are very few if any non-surgical alternatives to breast enhancement. Obviously, you hit on one thing: weight gain. However, this will cause weight gain in other body parts as well. The Brava system is basically a suction cup like device which is placed on the breasts for several hours and it recruits skin and may increase the cup size by 100-150 cc's at most. Breast enlargement surgery using implants is really the only way to truly augment the size of the breasts.

Not all that easy to change breast size without surgery
There are several issues regarding breast reduction that are raised by your question. However, to answer your question specifically, there are a couple of options, but a bit controversial. There is a Brava system, which I have no experience with, that basically is touted to increase breast size through a suction technique that you wear at night for several months.
I am not endorsing this but simply making you aware that it exists. Secondly, fat transfer, which is strictly a surgical...

Not really
The Brava system can possibly add a very small amount of volume back to your breasts but is very cumbersome to use and the results are quite limited. Fat injections are of interest but the exact safety and proper techniques have not yet been worked out. Basically, the best way to resolve your problem would be with a well performed breast augmentation.
