Reports have show that breast surgery has risen to the commonest reconstructive and type of plastic surgery in the United States, although the excellent results are not forever lasting. However, reports say that a new technique using the tissues of a patient towards creating an internal kind of bra, has been adopted.

Breast Implants also Come in Assorted Tastes

Gravity always make a point as aging sets in, while addition in many pregnancies, losing and gaining weight as well as a stretching skin mean that women are left facing breasts without shape and proportion. A breast surgery patient is quoted as saying that “Bras cannot do all work as we get much older, since they become harder and harder to hold through just a bra.”

This means that women facing such challenges only consider breast lifts as their only option. The procedure could be done through breast reduction and done in the United States around 180,000 times annually. The surgery might restore a youthful appearance but over the years, patients look back to when they carried out the initial surgery.

This led to the devising of new procedure, using the skin of the patients that creates a type of internal bra. After a breast surgery, whether a reduction or lift, an excess skin will always be left. The procedure leaves some of the excess skin to attach to one’s blood supply as well as attachment to the ribs, forming an internal bra or natural bra, which makes the newly attained breast shape to be maintained. The doctor carrying out the procedure, Dr. Alizadeh, has been following about 100 patients of the procedure closely for six years.

He claims that majority of the patients are doing very well, maintaining projection and breast shape.
