Hello ladies!

Three years ago I bought brava (narrow-medium domes), but had such bad skin irritation I never used it. Now that I'm aware of this amazing forum, I decided to give it another try. I learned here to switch the prep wipes for aloe, and the irritation went away! If only I knew about you all years ago - I might be boobilicious by now!

I'm in between jobs and w/o a boyfriend, so I have plenty of time to commit to brava right now - IF I can keep it that thing on! My problem is that it is SO PAINFUL on the muscle between my chest and my armpits. I can handle 2 hours at most. In desperation I even tried cutting a part of the silicone rims in this spot to make room for my muscle - all that did was reduce the ability to maintain suction, while still causing pain. It hurts where my pec crosses over to my arm. Assuming I can fix the slicing I did to my brava rims (yikes!), any ideas how to deal with this?

I'm narrow, so my domes reach across my chest and curl around my sides, which I think is part of the problem. I'm also just under 5ft, so the domes go high on my body as well. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

Ok, apologies for the long rant. I'm just desperate to be able to keep these suckers (ha!) on!!!

Thanks ladies, and happy growing everyone!!
Those cups are way too big for you.... imho.... I've had issues with pulling tissue from under the arm into the cup and it does hurt.... I'd see if you can buy a smaller set.... worst case you could modify the set you have.. I've used a heat gun to soften the plastic and remodeled cups before... you just need to be careful not to melt them, or put them under water to cool them too fast else they will crack.. if you can't resell your current domes because you cut them up then what have you got to loose... I'd heat both side and try to make them less wide...
Thanks Karren - I agree, they are too big. I love how brava insists they will mold to fit any body! They don't make smaller than narrow-mediums unfortunately, to my knowledge. I'll try your heat gun idea - thank you!
Id try one first.... take off any silicone gasket and heat the outside with the gun... you can get heat guns at any hardware store or lumber store.... you might want to practice on an old plastic cup of similar material... and wear a glove when you go to bend the plastic... it HOT! let us know how it went.... and take before and after photos!
Hi Bubbly, Maybe it is tooooo late. But I wanted to share my Brava experience. I'm little narrow framed girl. But I bough Large Narrow domes to begin with. It was just a sale on UK ebay store. And I though that I will easily outgrow Medium ones.

So I started to use it anyway. When I put it, I squeeze it horizontally to put them on. And you know after a first tough week, the domes become more narrow to fit my body... So I think the domes are transforming to fit during wear. And also to fit both huge domes I've put them close to each other. They were touging each other.
