Thanks to £6k "internal bra surgery" that uses pig skin to reduce sagging, women in their 70s are no longer required to wear bras.

 Surgeons believe that because of an operation that can involve pressing pig skin into the chest, women in their 70s no longer need to wear bras.

Breasts are naturally raised by "internal bra surgery," which prevents them from sagging over time.

Biodegradable meshes are implanted into a woman's chest during a delicate operation. These provide as a framework for the growth of tissue that functions as an internal bra, lifting the breasts and enhancing their naturally perky appearance.

The technique, which is said to be becoming increasingly popular, is currently available at cosmetic clinics from Los Angeles to London and can cost up to £6,500.

According to a surgeon who performs the treatment, some elderly ladies were giving up on regular bras completely because the results were so good.

Plastic surgeon William Adams Jr. told Elle, "I have patients in their seventies that we have done breast lifts on, and they do not need to wear a bra."

Other medical professionals, however, caution that the procedure's nomenclature may be misleading and that brasserie replacement surgery is not a given.

In order to maintain the benefits of the operation, patients are frequently instructed to continue using supportive bras.

In the UK, a breast reduction or boob job, which may cost up to £6,000, often comes with an internal bra lift as an add-on.

Internal bra surgery, which has no official name and is added to previous surgeries like as lifts or reductions, involves the insertion of specially constructed mesh scaffolds beneath and around the breasts by a skilled surgeon.

The mesh itself can be composed of a number of materials, unlike the brittle plastic that has been placed into women's vaginas and caused a medical scandal.

The two most popular are acellular dermal matrix (ADM), which is usually manufactured from properly prepared pig skin or donated human tissue, and poly-4-hydroxybutyrate, a biosynthetic substance.

Usually, the procedure requires many hours.

Although some versions attach the mesh to the ribcage's bones, the mesh is fastened to the interior tissue of the chest wall.

The implant serves as a scaffold because it forms an internal collagen scar during the absorption process.

The treatment gets its name from the fact that this "scar" is stronger than the tissue the body ordinarily has in this area and functions as an internal bra.

According to reports, the new tissue in this area is around five times stronger than regular tissue, giving the breasts a long-lasting "lift."

With poly-4-hydroxybutyrate, the mesh eventually dissolves and is replaced by collagen.

When ADM occurs, the tissue is left behind but fuses with the body, allowing the woman's cells to populate it.

Theoretically, the gradual replacement of the mesh with a patient's own biological tissue shouldn't affect the precision of tests such as breast cancer screening.

Medical professionals advise against use since thin women frequently 'feel' the mesh structure beneath their skin, which detracts from the experience.

Compared to artificial cosmetic implants, the tissue will age and decline with time as it is also natural, albeit more slowly than usual.

Furthermore, internal bra surgeries have some risk, just like any other surgery.

If an infection develops in the tissue that grows in or around the mesh, the entire construction will usually need to be removed.

Additionally, there is a chance that the mesh will poke through the skin depending on the specifics of the treatment, including the size of any implants inserted and the number of prior augmentations the patient has had.

While others also offer AMD, the majority of British cosmetic surgery centres that perform the treatment claim to employ GalaFlex mesh.

Claire Coleman, a British patient, underwent an older polyester mesh form of the treatment, making her the fifth patient in the UK to have it done.

Ms. Coleman, a Gloucester native who is now in her 50s, experienced the regrettable side consequence of having lost a significant amount of weight: sagging and loss of form in her breasts.

I detested my reflection and thought I was strange. She stated, "I used to cry when I saw changing rooms because low-cut tops looked so horrible."

After having the surgery in 2010, Ms. Coleman reported that she was thrilled with her new size, which was a C-cup instead of a 36D.

"I feel so much better about dating and relationships now that I am completely at ease in my nude state." She remarked at the time, "I would even go without a bra during the day."

Internal bra surgery has gained favour as a purely cosmetic technique, but it has also been used to reconstruct breasts in patients who have had cancer therapy that involves the removal of one or more breasts.

Lesley Bruce, a business coach from the Stafford area, had the internal bra operation on her left breast performed on pig skin in 2017.

At the time, Ms. Bruce, 65, expressed her extreme happiness with the outcome of her mastectomy and subsequent reconstruction.

She said, "I'm so relieved that the cancer threat is gone and that my bust still looks natural."

Extreme cosmetic surgery is another purpose for the treatment, as women aim for the largest gains in bust size.

In order to support the weight of her enormous 21-pound breasts, OnlyFans model Lacey Wildd, actual name Paula Simonds, needed an internal bra operation back in 2012.
