Tummy fat 'can grow new breasts'
Fat from the tummy or bottom could be used to grow new breasts in a treatment which could be carried out in an hour - or a lunch break.
Scientists say they can create a fat mixture with concentrated stem cells, which, when injected into the breast, apparently encourages tissue to grow.
The therapy, detailed in Chemistry and Industry Magazine, could help cancer patients who have had mastectomies.
And if licensed, it may rival silicone for those seeking bigger breasts.
Using fat from the patient's own body to rebuild other areas is not a novel idea, but such reconstructions often fail as the fat is simply reabsorbed.
However using fat-derived stem cells appears to overcome this problem, according to the company behind the procedure, Cytori Therapeutics.
Then there goes my comments, but do I need to say more? It'll be a win-win situation for both horizontally and vertically challenged women in the Pacific. Who says body fats have no use? This could be the next big industry around Pacific Islands.

The publication upon which this news is based reportedly contains factual errors (e.g., the Celution system holds promise for women following a lumpectomy but is actually not yet available) and mischaracterizations (e.g., it's not a "lunchtime procedure").

Bev, let's meet for the event. Sorry, had to delete your comment. u mentioned my name...that's a bleep bleep here...;-)
You'd be one of the nominees for Saipan's Sexiest Male Bloggers if you weren't so concerned about your identity, Clark.
;-) and suffer from your well thought of description such as Jeff's?
Wow! Just think of the implications of this story here... we could turn this enormous (hehe) population of fat women into an enormous population of extremely large breasted women. I think this is our ticket to economic riches... islands known for a population of extremely large breasted women... I can see the Japanese and expats running off the boats already.
