Enhance Breasts

Do you want to enhance the appearance of your breasts to make them look bigger, firmer or perkier? There are many ways to help enhance your breasts. You can use natural means, like choosing the right bra or exercising. You can also look into medical options to increase the size and appearance of your breasts.

Steps

Choosing the Right Bra

1. Make sure you're buying the right bra size. Many women are accidentally buying a bra size that's too small or too big. The wrong sized bra can cause your breasts to look smaller or misshapen. When you go shopping for a bra, be aware of the size you need.
   • Cup size is not necessarily the best measure of bra size. Cup size is correlated with band size. If you're an A-cup with a 34 inch band, you may be a B-cup with a 32 inch band. Learn your band size and then find a cup size from there.
   • Go to a store that specializes in selling bras, lingerie, and other underwear. Ask for a fitting. A good saleswoman will be able to help find you a bra that's flattering on you.
2. Use a push-up or padded bra. Push-up and padded bras are two types of bra that are specially designed to enhance the size of your breasts. If you want to enhance the size of your breasts, consider investing in a push-up or padded bra.
   • Push-up bras are designed to lift the breasts up and push them closer together, creating the appearance of larger breasts. Push-up bras are sold at most department stores as well as stores that specialize in lingerie.
   • Padded bras contain extra foam padding in the cups, which makes breasts look rounder and fuller without creating extra cleavage.
3. Have a variety of bras for different outfits. No bra is universally flattering. A low-cut dress might benefit from your breasts looking perkier, but a t-shirt might be better worn if your breasts are softer and flatter. Have a variety of different bras on hand in your closet and choose the right bra for the right outfit. This might mean doing some experimentation before going out.
4. Take care of your bras. A good bra can be quite expensive. Therefore, you should work on taking care of the bras you have so they do not wear out too fast.
   • Always hand wash and air dry bras. Going through the washer and dryer can increase wear and tear.
   • Never wear the same bra two days in a row. Letting a bra rest for a day allows the elastic to regain its strength.

Exercising

1. Build your chest muscles. Building your chest muscles can make breasts look firmer, perkier, and bigger. Many women, even highly physically active women, neglect working their pectoral muscles. Engage in exercises that focus on your chest in order to enhance your breast size.
   • Push-ups. Lie face-down on the floor and place your palms flat on the ground underneath your shoulders. Push yourself up into a plank position, keeping your spine straight. Lower yourself back towards the floor, without letting your stomach touch the ground. Try to work your way up to 15 repetitions.
   • Chest presses. Lie flat on an exercise bench with a dumbbell in each hand. Start with your elbows bent, so your arms are at a 90 degree angle from your body and the dumbbells are at shoulder level, parallel to the ground. Push the dumbbells straight up until their sides touch, then lower them back to the starting position. Do 3 sets of 10 reps.
   • Dumbbell flyes. Lie on the floor with a dumbbell in each hand. Extend your arms out to the sides, in line with the shoulders. Bring your arms in towards each other (as if you were giving someone a big bear hug) until the the weights touch, then lower your arms back towards the floor. Do 3 sets of 10 reps.
   • If you have the time and money, consider talking to a trainer at a gym. A trainer will be able to expose you to a variety of exercises that focus on the strengthening the chest.
2. Tone your core. A firm, toned core can help your stomach and hips look slimmer. This can make your breasts look larger by comparison. Try to do exercises that focus on building your core 3 to 4 days a week.
   • Exercises like crunches and sit-ups can help to tone your ab muscles and keep your waist looking trim. Planks are also an excellent exercise for engaging the core muscles.
   • Activities like yoga and Pilates are excellent for strengthening the core muscles and helping you to look lean and toned. Look for classes in your local area, or try doing them at home with the help of a DVD. You can also find instructional videos online that show you how to do a variety of yoga and Pilates poses.
3. Improve your posture. Improving your posture and balance can help make your breasts look larger. Work on improving your posture if you want to enhance the appearance of your breasts.
   • Keep in mind throughout the day your back should be straight with your shoulders held slightly behind your chest. Put up reminders throughout your house. Tape up a reminder on your fridge. Have a reminder stored in your phone.
   • Always keep your back straight and your shoulders back. When sitting, distribute your body weight evenly in both hips. Bend your knees at roughly a right angle and keep both feet flat on the floor. When driving, keep the seat close to the steering wheel to support the curve of your back.
   • Keep your back curved when sleeping as well. Avoid sleeping on your stomach. If you sleep on your side, do not draw your knees to your chest. Use a firm mattress that does not sag.

Considering Medical Means

1. Stay away from phony products. Many natural breast enhancement products, such as breast creams and dietary supplements, have little effect on changing your breasts and may actually be harmful. Many medications interact poorly with such products and no medical research exists that indicates they work.
2. Learn about breast augmentation. Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure in which breast size is increased by the insertion of breast implants. Breast augmentation is usually performed by a plastic surgeon. There are a variety of reasons for augmentation, from simply desiring larger or firmer breasts to reconstructing breasts after losing them to medical conditions such as cancer.
3. Talk to your doctor about the drawbacks of breast augmentation. While many women are happy after a breast augmentation surgery, keep in mind it carries some risks. Learn about the negative aspects of breast augmentation surgery before deciding if it's the right choice for you.
   • As with any surgery, there's a risk of complication. Scarring, infection, breast pain, and changes in breast sensation can occur.
   • Breast augmentation is expensive and is generally not covered by insurance. Getting mammograms after surgery can be complicated as you'll need specialized machinery.
   • Breast implants do not last a lifetime. They do not prevent sagging of breasts with age. Weight loss or weight gain can affect the appearance of your breasts even with implants.
4. Prepare for your surgery and recovery. If you decide breast augmentation is right for you, you need to prepare for the surgery. There is also a recovery period afterwards.
   • Your doctor will go over how you should care for yourself in the weeks leading up to the surgery. Your pre-surgical routine depends on your age, lifestyle, and overall health.
   • During healing, your breasts will be sensitive and there may be some leaking or scarring. You may have to wear a compression bandage, which will need to be changed regularly. Avoid strenuous activity for at least two weeks after the procedure.
5. Consider a breast lift. If increasing your breast size seems too intense, a skilled cosmetic surgeon can enhance the appearance of your breasts by making them perkier and more shapely. A breast lift removes excess, stretched out skin, reshapes breast tissue, and raises the nipples to change the appearance of your breasts.
   • There are a variety of types of breast lifts ranging in intensity. You can talk to a cosmetic surgeon about what type of lift would best suit your needs.
   • A breast lift is an outpatient procedure performed with general or local anesthesia. It takes about 1 to 2 hours to perform. Your breasts will be bandaged directly after the procedure and you can expect to experience some soreness in the weeks after the surgery.
