Reading some tabloid at work today and saw an article on a new BA technique that utilizes your own fat and stem cells. I thought it was prolly bullshit but I just googled and it's not, linkage:

In a nutshell some doc in Japan started experimenting with injecting a patient's own fat and stem cells into breasts in 2004. Fat injections are nothing new but apparently the stem cells make all the diff. Since then it's been an exclusive procedure at his clinic http://www.cellport.jp/english/ and he reports like 40 successful cases, also it just got EU approval last month so it may be offered elsewhere soon. The pros touted are that it involves no foreign implants that one's body may react poorly to, requires minimal incisions, and looks utterly natural. The cons are that it's very pricey (25K estimate at linked clinic, that may just be b/c everything in japan is ungodly $$$ though), and very slim patients may not have enough fat to work with, and they'll only pump you up 2 cup sizes max.
I'm keepin an eye on this!![]()
