Do Breast Enhancing Pumps Cause Scar Tissue to Develop?

Question

I want to use a breast enhancing pump. I plan to get implants in 12 months. Do you think a breast pump can cause scar tissue to develop?

Jerome Edelstein, MD · Answer

There is no scientific research proving this that I am aware of, unless the pump damages your tissues so much that a scar results. But that damage would probably be quite painful and something that you'd feel.

There would have to be soft tissue injury followed by an inflammatory response to cause scar to form in the breast. The suction pump should not cause you a problem.
