Botoxing them
Some MDs are hawking “breastox” treatments in which they inject the chest muscles with Botox to perk up your pair. The idea behind it is since the pecs are paralyzed, your back muscles take up the slack, lifting up your boobs. But groups like the American Society of Plastic Surgeons say the injectable breast lift is a total bust, pointing to research that shows it doesn’t work and is expensive to boot. “It also does nothing to address sagging skin, which contributes to drooping,” says Alexes Hazen, MD, a plastic surgeon at NYU Langone Medical Center. Experts also caution against injecting facial fillers such as Restylane into breasts: “We don’t have any data about the safety,” says Dr. Hazen. One final no thank you: The “vampire breast lift,” which involves using a woman’s own blood to supposedly plump up her bust.
