Stem cells to grow bigger breasts

A STEM cell therapy offering “natural” breast enlargement is to be made available to British women for the first time.

The treatment could boost cup size while reducing stomach fat. It involves extracting stem cells from spare fat on the stomach or thighs and growing them in a woman’s breasts. An increase of one cup size is likely, with the potential for larger gains as the technique improves.

A trial has already started in Britain to use stem cells to repair the breasts of women who have had cancerous lumps removed. A separate project is understood to be the first in Britain to use the new technique on healthy women seeking breast enlargement.

Professor Kefah Mokbel, a consultant breast surgeon at the London Breast Institute at the Princess Grace hospital, who is in charge of the project, will treat 10 patients from May. He predicts private patients will be able to pay for the procedure within six months at a cost of about £6,500.

“This is a very exciting advance in breast surgery,” said Mokbel. “They [breasts treated with stem cells] feel more natural because this tissue has the same softness as the rest of the breast.” He said the treatment offered the potential of considerable improvement on implants: “Implants are a foreign body. They are associated with long-term complications and require replacement. They can also leak and cause scarring.”

Is that good or bad????

I dunno, a natural way to increase the boobies, I think amazing scientific step forward.

I just marvel sometimes at the use that we put groundbreaking discoverys to.

I swear to Gawd that when they finally perfected the transmition of emails that the one that followed "Did this work?" was "So what are you wearing?"

I do believe something like 100% of the women on this earth have made a statement like, "If I could get the fat off my ____ and into my boobies, I'd be SO much happier."

Actually, this is a really great thing.  Think of women that have had their breasts torn up because of cancer surgeries.  Loosing a breast is a huge deal to women.  And instead of getting implants, they'll be able to do this and have a "natural" replacement. 

I started the thread to be silly, but in all honesty, it's a big deal.

When they can do it with Willies it will be a big deal.

Considering that they developed this as a way to help breast cancer patients, I think it was a worthy endeavor.  Many women suffer severe anxiety/depression after surgery.  We men share much of the blame for that by putting so much emphasis on a womans ta-tas.  You beat me to it, Miss Mia.
