Problems solved by technology

In particular, women who side sleep have increased discomfort as a result of the lack of support of the top breast, as discussed later.

Thus there remains an unmet need for adequate breast support for females.

While the use of these wrinkle prevention and removal techniques have been widely accepted, they are often costly or require a regular trip to a practitioner.

Depending on the size of the woman's breast this position may cause increased discomfort because of the lack of support.

Additionally, this increased stress of the breast skin may result in a stretched skin and / or cause increase or make more visible wrinkles.

With larger breasts, additional stresses cause such discomfort and wrinkles.

Other solutions include devices which require the use of bra-like straps to hold a piece of cloth or thin padding in place, however these attempted solutions do not provide support and often place unneeded stress on the sternum and cut-lines into the breast.

In addition, most women find it highly uncomfortable to sleep with bra straps.

Other solutions replace the bra straps in exchange for tight and / or restrictive clothing which again causes discomfort and doesn't solve the problem of cut lines and breast support for larger breasts.

This class of attempted solutions is made of a hard, uncomfortable material, subjecting the user to a constant pressure against the sternum, which can result in a sore painful feeling while wearing the device and for a time period after removal.

Addition of fabric to the exterior of the rigid cylinders do not relieve the user of these problems.

No breast support pillow exists to solve these unmet needs.
