Stem Cells Used in New Breast Enhancement Procedure

A solution may be in store from a company called Cytori Therapeutics. The process, called "Celution," uses stem cells to stimulate natural growth. The procedure uses fat cells from the patient's own body, transferred via liposuction. Normally, transferred fat cells die as they are taken out of the blood stream. With Celution, however, the transferred cells are re-introduced to the system with stem cells.
The procedure has already been approved in Germany, but doctors have not begun recommending the procedure just yet.

I heard lot about Zoft Gum, as they are good for the natural breast enhancement. I want to know more about Zoft Gum. If some one knows more about Zoft Gum please help me.

thats cool and yet probably gonna cause a little bit of controversy.but if its cells coming from your own body then where is the downside..besides the obvious surgery

Oh yeah, this will really get those right wing shove-my-religion-down-your-throat to vote for stem cell research. Stupid, stupid, stupid...Are these doctors men? I used to be flat when I was 96 lbs & not healthy! Geez!

I'm not sure!! First I'd like to see it being used to either save lives or cure deseases. Breast enhancement isn't high on my list! I'm to old to consider any kind of Breast enhancement either way!

Doctors should work towards helping Humanity not Vanity

Just a little heads up as to what this product was originally designed for....
Adipose tissue, also known as fat tissue, is one of the most recently discovered sources of adult stem cells. In addition to stem cells, there lies within adipose tissue a defined population of cell types that are also major contributors to healing, referred to as 'regenerative cells.' Together, these stem and regenerative cells represent tremendous opportunities for treating cardiovascular disease, spine and orthopedic disorders, vascular conditions, reconstructive surgery as well as a variety of other areas of medicine.

Ms. F McCorkle says that religion is being shoved down her throat. How? When was the last time someone dragged you to their church and forced you to do anything. I suspect that the mere mention of Faith is interpreted by you as being forced down your throat. The typical left wing athiest attitude is that until God is sterilized from the land religion will be considered as being forced upon them. And what has this got to do with the stem cell issue here?
SocietalShrapnal says "humanity not vanity" and I agree but don't forget that it is usually vanity that pays the start up costs for much of what becomes customary in the future.

Please find something more useful or creative for (mankind and) womankind than "boob-jobs" for stem-cell research. You can tell what was on these doctor's mind's, couldn't you?

300,000 breast reconstruction surgeries were done in 2006. Of those, over 14,000 were done to remove breast reconstruction (this does not include the 1,000's who could not afford the $5,000.to have them removed) due to some sort of complication. Infections from silicone are relatively common (which FYI were recalled & outlawed for use in 1996 USA), the "pain from saline" is unbearable.
The Dr. & his nurse said when I asked about how much pain will I be in afterwards?, they both replied absolutely NO PAIN, after 5 yrs. of constant unbearable pain,a gentle soft touch even hurts so terribly bad so after constant visits to my Dr. He finally tells me there's going to be a lot of pain for a long time. Clearly, breast augmentation is an imperfect surgical art.YET: SO CLEARLY it is a surgery that women / men will continue to undergo, like face lifts, dental implants, nips, tucks etc. If there is a natural way to do this as described I am "1" of many women who wish that procedure was available when they went in for their surgery, or the day after their procedure.
