“Botox Breast Lift” a Waste of Money, Warns AACS Surgeon

Local 12 news in Ohio aired this story today to answer the question “What is a Botox Breast lift?”

Dr. Mandell-Brown, a fellow member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgeons, explains that although the breast lift is common, and Botox is practical and effective, the so-called Botox Breast Lift is not a cost effective cosmetic treatment people should consider.

A theory about this procedure maintains that Botox injections can relax muscles and affect a woman’s posture to simulate lifting of the breasts.

The idea is “Rather than spend four or five or ten thousand dollars on a breast lift, lets do $200-$300 of botox.  If it sounds too good to be true, that’s because it is.  Reporter Liz Bonis asks, “are we just throwing away the 300 dollars then?” “Yes. Is there any research to support that this would be even remotely effective? No. In reality, the tissue’s too heavy for that to happen.”
