Stem cell enriched fat grafting for breast augmentation, is now available. Dr Andrey A. Shakhov, MD., Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, is performing breast augmentation using fat transfer and adult stem cells in Tijuana, Mexico. Dr Shakhov is the only physician in the north western part of Mexico to provide full-spectrum adult stem cell services to consumers. Fat is taken from the patient's hips and/or thighs by tumescent liposuction usin BodyJet® technology and processed to extract naturally-occurring regenerative cells. The offering of this pioneering procedure is an important milestone that marks major improvement on current technology and the way in which it is delivered to the patient. Stem cell enriched fat grafting aims to enlarge breasts by one cup-size, and in some cases up to two, without introducing a foreign implant into the body. The procedure offers a significant advantage with longer lasting results than traditional breast augmentation procedures. The patient's own fat and regenerative cells are used to create a graft for re-insertion to the breast, resulting in no risk of the body rejecting it. The new state of the art process reduces the body's absorption of the fat grafted into breasts, eliminating the need for top-up treatment. Traditional breast augmentation using 'fat grafting' involves harvesting fat from areas where it is in excess - like the abdomen, hips, thighs, or buttocks - and re-implanting it in the breast. Another advantage: the re-implanted fat is harvested from an area of the body where it is in excess. It is like killing two birds with one stone. The downside to traditional fat grafting, is that some of the fat re-implanted is reabsorbed by the body within a few months. Depending on the experience of the surgeon, the patient and some other factors in the body, 30-50% of transferred fat can be reabsorbed into the blood stream or simply die. With the new technique, the harvested fat is enriched with stem cells before being grafted into the breasts. Half the harvested fat is put through a special machine that extracts and condenses the stem cells, which are then mixed with the remaining fat before being injected into the breasts. The stem cells stimulate generation of a blood supply capillary network to the transplanted fat cells, which then integrate with the existing fat cells. The fat volume retention rate is estimated to be 80% or more. As a result, breast augmentation is totally natural, permanent and instant.
