credit: The Gift of GiftsA breast augmentation procedure is done by placing breast implants. However, the placement of foreign objects in the body can be harmful as the body may reject it and other adverse reactions against it.
But there are still options to make the breasts larger in a sort of natural way. However, it is not taking pills or supplements and it is still through surgery. Instead the patient’s own fats will be used to make the breasts bigger and it is called the stem cell breast augmentation.
But this is different from the controversial stem cell procedures that use the stem cells from embryos. The stem cells will be extracted from the patient’s own fat using a special process to harvest them. Liposuction will be done first to gather the fats where it will be divided into two parts. One part will be cultivated while the other will be purified. The cultivation process will harvest the stem cells while the purification process will gather the viable fats. Then the two parts will be mixed again before it will be reinjected in the breasts. The concept is somehow similar to a Brazilian butt lift with the addition of stem cells.
Certain amounts of blood will also be reinjected in the breasts to help the stem cells to reproduce and turn into new breast tissues. As the tissues will multiply, it will fill up the breasts which make it bigger and fuller. The procedure is more natural since no implants were required to perk up the breasts.
Then since there were really no incisions made in the breasts, stem cell breast augmentation recovery is easier and quicker compared to the traditional one that uses implants. There will be no risks of rejection, pain and infection that is associated with the invasive kind.
And since it is not commercialized it, the cosmetic surgery prices of it can start at $10,000. But as the procedure is still a neophyte compared to the other breast augmentation techniques, more researches and studies will be required to ensure it safety and level of efficacy.
