Declension

Brava, LLC, a Miami based company, was founded in 1999 by parent company Bio-Mecanica, Inc. Brava retains the sole rights to patent, manufacture, promote and distribute a non-surgical breast tissue expansion device called the Brava Breast Enhancement and Shaping System, using technology developed by Bio-Mecanica, Inc. The company distributes the system in the U.S. and Canada direct to consumers as well as through Brava Authorized Physicians.

History

The U.S Food and Drug Administration allowed ‘’’Brava’’’ to market the Brava System in 1999. The company later introduced the Brava Breast Enhancement and Shaping System as a non-surgical device used for breast augmentation in 2001. ‘’’Brava International’’’, another subsidiary of Bio-Mecanica, expanded Brava products into Europe and Asia in 2002. In 2006, ‘’’Brava’’’ introduced the BravaSport System, a second form of the original breast enhancement device.
