Have all these breast pumps been thought about enough?

Have all these breast pumps been thought about enough? COnsider this... if you are putting a pump on yourself it may cause 'swelling' because you are essentially damaging the tissue. Also that same damage will heal and go back down, but the effects the pump had on your skin will never go away, talk to any woman who has saggy breasts from having kids. skin stretches and most times it doesn't stretch back. so you will have bigger boobs (if it works) but they will go away and what you do have will be saggy.... MORE than a bad idea.

Not true for me at all. I had saggy empty boobs before using suction. BB took out the sag and helped to fill them out. A full year after I have completely stopped any type of suction and my boobs are just as perky as they were in my teens. I never went back to being saggy. You also are not considering that these suction devises increase blood supply which is probably the reason they take out the sagging. It's not the same thing as growing and then losing weight. Not the same at all. At least not with the BB. Can't speak for the other ones.

It's likely that we're creating connective tissue rather than glandular tissue, but either way it shouldn't go away and shouldn't be so prone to disappearing with weight loss either as it'll be less dependent on fat storage.

Don't forget these breast pumps are used by breastfeeding mothers and it doesn't seem to do them any harm.

I must admit I am worried by skin stretching, so I think this question was a valid one to ask. The other theory is that, due to the elastic nature of human skin, prolonged pumping of any human body part over a long enough period of time will produce enough stretching to give the impression that there is growth.

NO! Pumps for breast enlargement are NOT the same as what nursing mothers use. Not at all.

i completely agree!!
It may work for some people but for me it simply damaged my skin and left me with slightly saggy nipples.
i wore the system for ten weeks last year and apart from getting no growth I got horrible stretch marks on the inside of my breasts. They are silvery streaky lines, which because of the swelling I only realised about when I gave up using the system.
Really disgusted that Brava don't warn people about side effects such as this. They specfically told me you can't get stretch marks. I'm sure not everyone dces but I did and a year and a half on i am still really upset about them. Small and firm is a lot better than small and stretch marked!
