Amazing new technique will help new cell growth after Breast Cancer Surgery. This has to be a marvellous breakthrough and give hope to so many women who have had a mastectomy.
Innovative technique allows new cells to grow and reconstruct ‘natural’ breast
Traditional
lacemakers in Calais could help thousands of women cope after a
mastectomy as their craft is being used to help create a new natural
reconstructed breast that grows from their own cells.
Leavers lace
is being used as a ‘scaffold’ matrix to allow the body to grow the
woman’s own fat cells to recreate the breast shape inside a 3D-printed
natural fibre mould.
After breast cancer and a mastectomy, women
looking for breast reconstruction have previously chosen a silicone
prosthesis that has a high risk of rejection and needs changed every few
years or ‘lipofilling’, where fatty tissue is transplanted from
elsewhere in the body in a series of surgeries.
