**PLEASE HELP! Can't decide between Brava, BB or GB!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Okay, seriously, I've been reading all of your great posts and advice and I just have to post a message. I can't find ALL the answers I'm looking for, so I figured this would be easier.
I'm 27, very small frame (5'1", 102 lbs, athletic build). I wear a 32A, but they're full. I REALLY want to get small implants, but several websites just scared the poo out of me, so now I'm leaning back towards one of these devices. Besides, I'm on y'alls side - I'd rather pay much less and actually have real boobies. My goal is a full B, maybe small C. That would be perfect!
I really wanted to try Brava, but as you know - long hours, months and months, etc. I just learned about BB and GB today on this website with y'all. (By the way, y'all are fantasic about helping everyone out!) Here are my questions, please help as soon as you can - I may break down and get implants. Ahhh!
FYI- I'm not doing this to feel better about myself, nor is anyone telling me I should. Actually, I have a healthy self esteem and everyone tells me I shouldn't do a thing. I just want to look proportionate and fill out swimsuits and bras better. I'm doing this for ME.
Again, I'm 5'1", 102 lbs, athletic/slim build, and my goal is a full B cup or small C. PLEASE answer as many as you can. Thanks!!
Q 1: Has anyone gotten ANY kind of stretch marks from ANY of these "suction" products?
Q 2: Has anyone's nipples changed in sensitivity OR shape OR size?
Q 3: By using Brava,BB or GB, has anyone had sustained growth? (not just a few hours, but weeks and months)
Q 4: Can I use just one dome on one breast to make them more equal in size?
Q 5: Can anyone (that doesn't sell or work for any of these companies) share before/after pics, or tell me where I can find them? (you can send the pics or links to my email address - or if they have the cabability on this website - you can send them through here.
Q 6: If you use, or have used, any of these devices, can you please tell me your size before & after, how long you wore them each day, and for how many weeks?
Q 7: I plan on only using one of these, but rubbing on Cocoa Butter with Vasoline, to help my skin out and for softness. If I develop a rash from the domes, I will use either diaper rash cream or neosporin. Do you have any other tips I can try?
Q 8: What are good/reliable sites to purchase one of these? And which one has support you can talk to about their product?
Thanks, girls!!

I read somewhere that one of them turns your boobs purple, but the color comes back in a few months. WHAT?! Which one won't change the color of your boobs?

I used Brava for 32 weeks and went from a small 34A to a pretty full B. I then did it for another 20 weeks and was almost a C. Not full, but I could wear a 34C. I did lose some fullness after breastfeeding baby #3, so now I am on cycle 3 (week #10) and I am again at a small C.
My advice concerning Brava is that it is ONLY for someone who cannot live with their breasts as they are. It is for desperate women who would never get implants! A last resort. I had no confidence with my flat chest and felt gross in clothes, like a 5 year old kid. I hated my body. Brava was a miracle for me. I don't regret it at all. However, it is a huge self sacrifice, very uncomfortable, expensive and to achieve any real growth, you have to be willing to dedicate at least a year to it. Forget 10 weeks! So you have to decide if having breasts is worth doing anything for. If the answer is yes, Brava is a good choice.

Thanks for your input. Also, I read on here that some girls wear BB for about half an hour before putting on the Brava for 12 hours (or more). Has anyone done this? And, does the Brava really make your boobs point outward because of the cushion in the middle? I can only imagine how bad mine would point outward - my chest and ribcage is very small.

Mine did not point outward but they made them look fuller on the outide portion - more like the hour glass look.

Hi,
I'm also 5'1 but a bit fatter than you (about 107 lbs now but was 135 - yuck!). Suction has been a miracle for me and I have had permanent growth which was still there 3 months after not using any suction products but I have since started back with the suction because I want more! Before Brava I was full 32A (wearing 32B but not full unless very padded style) now I wear 32C but I've lost weight so really 30D. Now I'm aiming for 30E so I want to do 8 months this year have 4 month break then another 8 months.
Q 1: Stretch marks - have been know occasionally but not had a problem myself.
Q 2: My nipples have grown slightly but in a good way, before the aureole was puffy like in puberty and the nipple small, now the nipple is larger and more erect so the whole thing looks more adult. My nipples were barely sensitive at all before Brava. Brava made them more sensitive but either BB made them less senstive again or it just wore off. I'd say they are maybe slightly more sensitive than when I started but not much different.
Q 3: I stopped Brava at end of January 2008, had 2 week break, used BB for 16 weeks then had 3 month break - I did lose some in the longterm but still at least 1 cup bigger and 15 lbs lighter than before after 3 months break.
Q 4: One dome can be used or with Brava you can airlock the two separately so you inflate them to the same size - I plan to do this more later.
Q 5: I have pretty good pics and have taken more, I can't put them on the internet but if you fancy having a coffee in London then I can show them to you in person (the pics that is!).
Q 6: You can check my program page for exact wear time each day, called "Veggie NBE with Brava". Check the September 4th 2008 post for good summary of measurements. Your cup size is determined by the difference between the band size and the bust size, in terms of this measurement I've gained 2 inches which should be the same as 2 cups. BB also gave me more 'tops' like pecs which look really good in strapless tops as they bulge out the top. Again, although my actual bust measurement hasn't changed much the rest of my body's shrunk a lot so to keep the same bust measure my cup size is going up and my band size (and dress size) is going down.
Q 7: For your skin use whatever you normally find comfortable, changing products can often give a rash. If you look at my program or at old posts there is a lot of info about skin creams.
Q 8: I bought Brava direct from the Brava company which is expensive but as least you get a guarantee and brand new domes. I started with narrow large then used narrow XL and now got wide XL because they're deeper. Once you buy from Brava you get the domes cheaper then next time but it's still an expensive process. I've spent £1200 on Brava so far and I've also got a BB and Noogleberry (which I wouldn't recommend). BB I bought second hand and has worked well. I now use BB first then Brava over night which gives massive swelling and 1 hour with BB is better than 1 hour with Brava so I get more benefit each night. I hvae bought new BB domes from www.gismostore.com and been happy with their service.
Let me know if you need any more info...also what is GB?
Good luck x

p.s. any of them can make your boobs purple WHILE YOU'RE WEARING IT if you suck too hard. BB with time can make your boobs look slightly tanned / yellowy but not very noticeable. Brava eventually gives this tanned / yellowy colour in a ring where the domes touch. Both go away after a few months.
Brava / BB hasn't made my boobs point outwards but grows more on the outside than the cleavage side because of how wide the cushions are. The swelling is huge and is then big enough to make them point out but I just hide them away until it wears off.

I am using Brava and tried NB . I think Brava is expensive but it worth the price, effective and comfortable to wear all day . While I couldn't even keep the NB on my chest for 30 second because size LArge is too small and the cup can not stick to ur skin . I bought NB after reading "A woman account on her search of her breast enhancement" but after tried NB on , I think It's completely not true
