Jordan: new here... fat transfer?

Hi Jordan, I'm sure the other ladies on the side will respond, but I am so glad you have found this site. yes, there is more info on the fat transfer, this is what I have found using Google This procedure is about $25,000 right now, but many of us have spent that much or more on getting implants, getting them out, and seeing numerous doctors. I think you gain 1 1/2 cup size by this procedure<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<(http://www.living-with-small-a-cup-breasts.com/fat-transfer-breast-augmentation.html)Japanese procedure: also makes it possible for the fat cells to survive. Dr. Yoshimura's procedure is called: CAL -> cell assisted lipotransfer. When the fat is derived through liposuction it is divided it into two parts. One of it remains as is but the other part is used to derive as many stem cells as possible. Later these stem cells are mixed with the fat tissues and ready for implantation. According to Dr. Yoshimura, the extra stem cells are needed to help to form new blood vessels. Blood vessels are needed to help the implanted fat tissues to become part of the local breast fat tissues. Otherwise the fat will not survive and eventually will disappear from your breasts or can cause lumping. I have contacted to Dr. Yoshimura and this is what he said: Q: What do you think when and where this procedure will be available in the United States and Europe? (Oct 29, 2008) Dr Yoshimura: "For USA, it will take some time due to the regulation. Some doctors are trying to start this procedure other area of the world, such as Russia, Spain, Germany, Korea, Israel, but not yet decided, maybe next year." >>>>>>>>>>> Hello ladies-> I wanted to introduce myself and ask a few questions. First off- I am so thankful to have found you at the point in which I did. > I do not have breast implants but was about 6 months away from getting them. I have been researching for over a year and all the studies I was able to find linked all negative health consequences to silicone implants. I had decided on a very small saline implant. I currently barely fill out an A cup and I just wanted to be a B (where I was when I was breast feeding my 5 children). Since being pregnant and nursing for so many years and finally being back to what my body will be like I hate my boobs. I am very athletic and not small anywhere except my chest. From the beginning implants were always very contrary to my lifestyle. I am very natural in all aspects- no vaccines for my kids, all organic food, no chemicals in my house, natural health remedies, etc... Now after reading all your stories and seeing all those horrible pictures of explanted moldy saline implants I know I could never go through with getting implants. Also- in my early 20's (I am now mid 30's) I had some weird arthritis symptoms and had a rheumatologist run some blood work. I tested positive for the gene HLA-B27. For the past 10 years I have had no symptoms but this gene shows that I am more seseptable to multiple auto immune illnesses. > All this being said- it still doesn't help me with my body image!!! Seems like the only other option out there for bigger boobs at this time is fat grafting. There doesnt seem to be much research on this. Have any of you had this done? Do you think this is safe? Can someone point me in a direction of more research? Thanks so much!> Happy healing to you all! I did a similar type healing when I was having arthritis symptoms 10 years ago. A very hard process! OUr bodies have such an amazing ability to heal themselves if we give them the right chance.> Take care!> Jordan>
