Stem Cells Used in New Breast Enhancement Procedure

by Joshua Fruhlinger, posted Aug 6th 2007 at 2:01PM

Consider this: Over 300,000 breast reconstruction surgeries were done in 2006. Of those, over 14,000 were done to remove breast reconstruction due to some sort of complication. Infections form silicone are relatively common, as is pain from saline. Clearly, breast augmentation is an imperfect surgical art.

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.
