Breast Enlargement Without Surgery – Is it Possible
Breast enhancement surgery typically involves saline breast implants or a breast lift
procedure that adjusts the size, texture and shape of the breasts. However, a lineup of pills,
creams and breast enlargement pumps claim to provide similar results without the need for
surgery.
Is breast enlargement without surgery too good to be true? Here’s a closer look at some of
the latest treatments and options available:
Breast Augmentation with Herbal Supplements
Pills that stimulate hormone production have been linked to increasing the size of the
breasts, but there is little evidence that these are a safe solution for breast enhancement.
Herbal extracts such as fennel, saw palmetto, wild yam and fenugreek have long been used
in herbal medicine treatments to balance the hormones, but CancerHelp.org reports that
many of these herbs are not supported by published clinical trials. Most contain a high
concentration of phyto-oestogens, the chemicals that can stimulate breast tissue production
and will ‘trick’ the body the body into thinking it is pregnant.
There may be other benefits of taking herbal supplements for breast augmentation. The
Department of Health Care Sciences at George Washington University School of Medicine
published results of a study about herbal breast enhancement supplements in 2003, stating
that, “the effect of phyto-oestrogens on breast tissue isn’t really clear. Some early research
suggested that women with diets high in phyto-oestrogens have a lower risk of breast
cancer.” (Source: CancerHelp.org)
Breast Enhancement with Exercise
You can tone the abdominal muscles, increase the size of your biceps and even tighten up
the glutes with a healthy exercise routine, so why not increase your breast size too? A
personal trainer can help you learn exercises that build up the chest muscles underneath the
breasts so you tighten and tone the entire area. This may prevent drooping and creates a
more youthful, toned look. Shoulder press resistance exercises, palm presses and even light
pushups can help you build up strength in the chest area to provide a sturdy foundation for
the breasts.
Breast Enlargement Pumps
Breast enlargement pumps are now available over the counter with varying (usually
temporary) results, but the BRAVA system, one of the latest nonsurgical breast
enlargement systems on the market, claims to provide long-lasting results. BRAVA also
stimulates breast tissue growth and requires the patient to wear small plastic domes for at
least ten hours per day in order to work. The entire treatment process runs for ten weeks,
and the system is designed to increase the breasts by at least one cup size. Does BRAVA

really work? The company behind the BRAVA system reports that results are dependent on
biological factors, overall health and duration of use of the system.
