It is said there is an app for everything. And if you don’t believe it, then you haven’t checked out iAugment, an app for the iPhone that lets female users increase the size of their bust on photos.
The app was developed Elizabeth Kinsley, a New Orleans plastic surgeon, who was the first doctor to use 3D imaging technology to give her patients an idea of what they would look like after breast augmentation surgery.
The app, which is free to download, can be used on any photograph to enlarge the body parts of choice. As the accompanying video demonstrates, the user highlights the breasts (or other selected parts) by means of a pair of on-screen capture tools, then selects the desired bra size.
Inventor Kinsley is quoted by the Mail as stating:
Breast augmentation can be a complicated procedure with women asking questions like ‘what will they look like?’ or ‘what size is right for me?’
This is designed to give them the best idea possible of how they might look after surgery.
Since the app was launched on Apple's App Store, it has received over 7,000 ratings, and most of the comments have been positive.
As the video reveals, the app can also be used as a toy, to enlarge body parts one might otherwise never think of enlarging.
Unfortunately, the real-life version, which operates on the actual human anatomy rather than a photograph, is still on the drawing board.
