每年十月是全球世界乳癌防治月。三十年來，代表乳癌防治宣導的粉紅絲帶已深入人心。根據中華民國衛福部的統計資料顯示，民國109年死因統計有2,655名女性死於乳癌，每天約7.3人死於乳癌，是婦女癌症死亡率第三位。

2022年9月19日，由芙森時尚美學的林盈君老師，以及朵希生活美學黃畇麒兩位老師共同發起「全台頂尖美胸師登峰活動」，邀請來自北中南的20位頂尖講師與美胸師，一起登合歡山主峰。

活動之前，台灣又是地震又是颱風，但是團隊成員不懼這些外界的變數，仍然在9月19日當天準時出發，團結合作，順利成行。從台中出發武嶺開始一起登峰，全程行走三小時，登上海拔3417公尺的合歡山主峰，名列台灣百岳之一。

黃畇麒老師表示，「台灣高山世界聞名，有268座高山海拔3000公尺以上，能一起踏上台灣島的屋脊中央山脈登上合歡山主峰，對我們的美胸師很有意義，透過粉紅絲帶登山活動宣導女性乳房健康的重要性，有健康的身體才能一起登峰攻頂。」

這次共同參與的教學團隊最大的特色是，他們增加了美胸按摩服務的價值。他們的使命是教會所有想要學習的店家老師和美胸師，在提供服務的同時，還能夠給予專業的指導與建議，辨別乳癌警訊的知識。

他們的技能包括教導客人如何做乳房的自我檢查，也幫來店的顧客做胸部的觸摸檢查。這方面的功能是需要專業技巧來支持，所以不會盲目地幫顧客按胸部。黃畇麒表示，曾經有些店家因為沒有相關的專業知識，發生過客人的胸部有腫塊，按摩時雖然有接觸到，卻沒有專業知識可以做判斷，錯失早期發現的良機。甚至有時候，客人可能是乳癌的早期，透過按摩之後，結果卻造成了擴散。

黃畇麒表示：「我們觸摸時，確實會發現客人有非常多的腫塊。一旦我們知道，就會建議客人到醫療院所，去做詳細的醫療常規檢查，例如超音波和乳房攝影。我們的專業令客人安心。」

乳癌在目前全世界女性的罹癌風險中排名第一，它並不是那麼容易被發現。這群美胸師接受特別的專業訓練，幫客戶美胸按摩保健的同時，也進行衛教。前幾個月著名歌手朱俐靜，年紀輕輕就因為乳癌過世，顯示乳癌防治真的非常需要普及，推廣，並且為人所重視。

專業美胸師團隊提醒身邊的女性朋友，每半年或一年要做一次乳房檢查，另外國民健康署也有針對45歲到69歲的女性，每兩年有一次的免費乳房X光攝影檢查。
