Breast Growth Products Target Teens
There are an alarming number of websites online that offer young girls products that claim to be able to increase bust size. Our Hiddenfeet website is founded on the principal of helping girls who are already large chested. Lately there have been an increasing number of emails from women wanting to know how to grow their chests even larger.
“Keep your hard earned money. Stay healthy and love yourself.”
We wanted to take some time to let our readers know that we do not support these websites or their expensive – and possibly dangerous – products. A simple google search will reveal many of these websites that market these creams and pills. No need to link to them.
Hiddenfeet isn’t the only one taking a stand against companies marketing these products to teens. YM magazine, published by Gruner & Jahr, has run occasional quarter-page ads for breast-enhancement tablets in the past, but the new editor and publisher have decided to refuse the ads. CosmoGirl also rejects the ads, as does Elle Girl and Teen Magazine.
The New York Times ran a great article on teen magazines and their attitudes towards breast enhancing products.
What to watch for:
- Be wary if immediate, effortless or guaranteed results are promised.
- Look for telltale words and phrases such as breakthrough, miracle, secret remedy, exclusive, and clinical studies prove.
- Be cautious of money-back guarantees, for a guarantee is only as good as the company that backs it.
- Do not buy when testimonials or case histories from satisfied users are the only evidence a product works.
- Always check out a product with your doctor, pharmacist or other health professional.

”I am personally committed to having Teen Vogue promote images of health and well-being for our readers,” she said. ”I would like to emphasize that this is advertising and not editorial.”
Ya right! Has any mother ever read Teen Vogue?
I agree with Lindsay P. The excuse that it is advertising and not editorial is pathetic. They might as well advertise Marlboro and Budweiser using that logic.
While I applaud those teen magazines for their efforts in not publishing ads for breast enhancement products, they are still making millions from ads that push makeup and other beauty products.
We know that breast growth products don’t work, but the damage caused by poisons and chemicals in many of the cosmetics sold to teen girls is shocking. Beauty cosmetics is a multi-billion dollar a year industry in the United States and imo just as damaging to a young girl as a breast enhancing product.
Thumb through any current teen magazine and its obvious to see that the publishers care little about the mind and body health of young girls. Diet, exercise and education are not popular topics in these magazines. Its always the quick fix with a cosmetic that a teen girl can buy from their local store. Once a girl is hocked at a young age on a brand or style of cosmetics the company can profit from the girl year after year as they get older. Beauty products are very much an addiction for women of all ages.
Still can not believe people fall for these scams. If they worked, wouldn’t every girl be using them? These scams have been going on ever since my mother was a little girl.
I went to school with a girl who was already a very large D cup and wanted to grow a few more cup sizes. I warned her not to waste her money on pills and creams.
She exercised her chest in the gym to enhance her cleavage and wore clothing that made her bustline look larger. It worked well and she was very shapely.
I am confused by this New York Times article. The editors all worry about the Bloussant ads projecting an image to girls that they felt was unfair….but notice how they didn’t just say that the products do not even work in the first place.
“Apart from the propriety of placing the ads, there is little evidence to suggest that the tablets — which cost $229.95 for an eight-week supply, according to the WellQuest Web site — actually achieve what the ad promises. A call to a WellQuest spokesman, Michael Ackerman, was not returned.”
$229.95!
“According to a spokeswoman for the F.D.A., the agency has not received complaints about the Bloussant tablets.”
Well of course not. Nobody wants to admit that they got scammed for a breast growth product. The companies are counting on this.
Be cautious of money-back guarantees, for a guarantee is only as good as the company that backs it.

This is so true. I have been burned by TV scams and their so called money back guarantees many times.
Everything targets teens these days so why not breast pills as well. The teen market is booming for companies to make money from. Many teens get an allowance or generous monetary gifts from parents and relatives plus they have disposable income from jobs. Since many live at home all this money is usually spent week after week. Teens rarely save money.
Large companies know this and study the teen market intensely to exploit every penny from them.
I am a high school teacher and am seeing many of my students taking greenbush products. These girls are under the impression that they are growing but I have to believe that any results they are seeing are simply from natural genetic responses to their existing hormones. Parents are throwing away hundreds of dollars a year on these greenbush products for their daughters.
We try to warn the girls but they never listen. It is so frustrating.
Here is the website that sells these products.
Any truth that the oral contraceptive pill makes huge breasts even larger?
Fredrick size increase from an oral contraceptive is usually because girls retain more water from what I hear.
From: Tokyotimes
“Health product company owner, Akihito Ishii, was arrested yesterday for selling a breast enlargement medicine that had no effect whatsoever. A violation of the Pharmaceutical Affairs Law.
Ishii-san promoted the product by saying, “No matter what bust size you have, you’ll be two sizes bigger by the following month. You’ll easily make that D-cup bust you’ve always wanted.”
Unfortunately a large number of women fell for this outlandish sales pitch, and it is estimated that 36,000 boxes of the breast enlarging tablets were sold. Netting Ishii a cool 200 million yen (1 million pound) profit.
Those who took the pills said they had no side effects, but at the same time no effect in the breast department either. Which in some cases is perhaps just as well, as investigators are directly accusing Mr. Ishii of selling 48 boxes of tablets to a 27-year-old woman and eleven others.”
Why can’t the USA put the people behind these same companies behind bars also? Is it because the FDA doesn’t regulate items like these?
I read that story before. I heard of another one on the net of using a certain cell phone ring tones to enlarge breasts!
Simone you are right. Those greenbush products are a rip off. Girls at my school have their moms buy them and they never grow big boobs. They are so proud to take them at first and then when nothing happens they deny that they took them and get embarrassed.
This is another product and website that sells products to teens. BAD! I wish they would get shut down!
