Scientist have come up with an amazing creation of a fat mixture along with concentrated stem cells, which, when infused into the breast, apparently helps tissue to grow. This therapy in which fat from the tummy or bottom could be used to grow new breasts can be carried out in an hour. This treatment could be of great help to cancer patients who have had mastectomies. Fat from respective area can be taken out with a standard liposuction procedure, and the stem cells then extracted which are placed into a cartridge ready for injection one hour later. Within six months results start showing the breast starts filing up. Experts feel that it is a positive development for medical science but are not very sure whether it would provide any immediate results in cosmetic surgery. The researchers need to find out how these cells work once they are in the breast before any great claims can be made.

Though the treatment is expensive costing a few thousand pounds per cartridge, but this is not dissimilar to the price of conventional surgery and the company hopes to introduce the therapy to Europe in early 2008.
