Cleavage Problem

Hi all,
The other day I used the surgical tape method to create some cleavage. I left it in place for several hours. When I went to remove it, I had a large, tender, and sore abrasion under my left breast from the tape. I presume this isn't supposed to happen. I don't know if I didn't place the tape right, or what.
Has anyone else had this problem? And what should I do differently to avoid this problem in the future?

I know of some others who have experienced the same thing.
Like a bruising.
You may need wider tape, or layer the tape you have to make a wider support base.

I use the double sided tape that I get from "The Breast Form Store." It works great, however I fell asleep wearing them once and when I woke up I was sore and when I removed them I had a large crease in my skin and it was very sore for a day or two. It was my fault for not properly positioning the tape, so as the Sarge from Hill Street Blues use to say, "Let's be careful out there!"
Never had any brusing or redness or swelling if I use "the proper installation" methods.

Have your tried what is called a "NuBra". They are stick on enhancers that have a clip on the front. The clip makes the cleavage and the enhancer pushs up everything.

Haven't tried a NuBra, though I had heard about them a week or so ago.
May have to try one.

at times like this i wish my excess baggage was around my chest instead of my middle! lol
i have tried so many things to create clevage and with little or no success. i've basically given up it frustrates me so.
i don't know of anything i wouldn't like more but even surgical tape gives me red skin and the squeeze and lift products just don't stay put for any length of time or activity. whaaaaaa!

I have use NuBra with ta bra to create cleavage Set the NuBra out further than normal and us the regular bra to pull them together. I tried doing it with the NuBra and broke a clip but this other way works good.
