Sagging Breasts Need A Lift? Cup&Up To The Rescue!



Cup&Up By MIMCup&Up By MIM


In the not-too-distant-future, you'll be able to have your sagging breasts lifted on your lunch hour! Well, just about.... An Israeli company, MIM (Minimally Invasive Mastopexy) has developed a two-hole breast lift procedure to insert what amounts to a permanent push-up bra under your breasts. How clever and how considerate!

Yup! If the human trials are successful, the huge anchor incisions on women's bodies, made for the "aesthetic" lifting of sagging breasts, may become a thing of the past. Breast lifts are currently among the most invasive cosmetic surgeries, involving the removal and new placement of breast tissue, lots of incisions, often removal and replacement of the nipple, and insertion of implants. These surgeries are painful afterwards and can involve weeks of recovery. Then there is that chance they will not be successful and you require a repeat surgery.

The new technique, called the "Cup&Up" involves the insertion of a silicone implant through two small incisions and its attachment to the ribs and connective tissue with a few small screws and some surgical thread. Doesn't sound too bad, does it?

Pigs were chosen as the first subjects for "Cup&Up" testing because their skin is the most like human flesh. The pig Cup&Ups were tested successfully for "staying power, tissue reaction and damage or injury to muscles or ribs." Now that MIM is ready to conduct human trials, plastic surgeons from all over the world are trying to get their patients into the clinical trials. (Oh, me first, me first!)

Because of the demand for breast lifts worldwide, the Cup&Up procedure should be available within a few years. So in the meantime, babes, keep wearing those push-up bras and try doing some push-up workouts to firm up your chest muscles.

Keeping you posted!

Damn! That breast looks GROSS

Do men still go nuts over it?


:/

It seems little disgusting to me:/


Hey Vasek:

I hope your middle name isn't Tommy.


Less Invasive Breast Lifts

I don't know if this is on the level or not, but it looks a bit too simple to be effective. I guess we may see. :)


Do you think this really

Do you think this really works?  Sounds much better than implants.


It should work, but

I thought of roughly this same procedure about 5 years ago.  In my model, the "cradle" is a mesh, so it may be more easily collapsed for insertion through a small incision and is a bit more elastic, reducing the strain on the anchors when bouncing.  I never found a satisfactory mechanism for attaching the supports to the ribs.  I don't like screws because they weaken the bone and most women undergoing the procedure are already peri- or post- menopausal.  I also don't like the idea of using surgical thread for the supports.  Such attempts in the past have usually resulted in breakage.


explants?

Does "explants" sound much better than "implants"? Not really... how about Busthoist? Hillraiser? Tiddy-up? The Firminator? I'm workin on it...

Horrible, just

Horrible, just horrible.
Money & vanity, that's all it is!
Using ANIMALS for the sake of having women have more perkier breasts? This is sick & horrible.


Hmmmm....

i can see why its a great idea, i mean wearing a bra wouldnt be such a problem, they wouldnt sag, but its still a horrible thing to do, insert a "bra" just to make people look better... what does it matter


okay so it lifts the tissue

okay so it lifts the tissue but the extra skin would still be there... thats where the problem lies
