If you’re an Ally McBeal fan you’ll know this contraption isn’t new.
Elaine, played by Jane Krakowski, invented the “Miracle Face Bra” in season two of the dramedy and now a Japanese gadget store is selling a version for the bargain price of $40.
It was a contraption that you put on you head to lift you face, kind of like a bra lifts your boobs.
According to the blurb on the website the Hourei Lift Bra is “your ticket to combating the signs of ageing”.
It’s basically the stuff dreams are made of:
If your nasolabial folds (or laugh lines) are getting you down you can now slip on a face bra, it’s “silicone rubber curves” will feel comfortable on your skin while the “wire” design works it’s magic.
See? Nothing says comfort like “silicone rubber curves” and “wire”.
The makers also suggest doing mouth exercises while wearing the frame (shown below), presumably so you can look as ridiculous (and gullible) as possible.
If the Face Bra isn’t for you, perhaps we could interest you in The Face Wrap? A mummified version of the face bra -just like the one Elaine pedalled in infomercials on Ally McBeal – it’s a non-surgical way to “skin and sculpts the face.”

All are pretty ridiculous except for the item for inverted nipples. I have 1 inverted nipple and if I'm ever cold or in water they both go right in unless I squeeze it out and then they'll be erect. It doesn't hurt and I don't notice but it does look a bit ridiculous. If my boyfriend ever spots it when i first get undressed he kindly takes it upon himself to sort it out for me haha.. which then turns into something else..ahem..
I had wondered about them if I ever need to breastfeed and asked my Mum - turns out she's the same but my sister is not. Mum had no issues and my mid-wife friend said it doesn't make a difference if you can pop them out. She did say in extreme cases they might need a bit more coaxing and time to get them out for feeding.
I have actually seen suction thingies for inverted nipples. That said, they have without exception, been maternity patients of mine and trying to encourage their nipples out for breastfeeding.
