So here I was just reading the news before I headed to bed and here was this about permanent breast lifts with an INTERNAL bra. Yes, you read that right. An INTERNAL bra. Apparently you’ll be in by morning and out by lunch in a 40 minute procedure. Yes, they already know – the first procedure has already been done.
The Cup & Up bra is the invention of leading Israeli plastic surgeon Eyal Gur who has been besieged by women wanting the operation after they discovered his research on the internet.
He said: ‘This might not quite be the end of normal the bra, but we’ve shown that with a very small operation that it’s possible to give a woman an internal bra that she can have for the rest of her life.’
Now you are probably thinking how the heck they did this. It seems that two cuts of less then a centimeter wide will be made in each breast after which silicone cups (similar to that of normal bras, except, they’ll be made of silicone, the stuff that’s used for implants) will be inserted a centimeter below the skin surface. Then the surgeon will take two long straps of strong material and attach them to the ribs between the breast and the shoulder.This is kinda hard to explain so let me show you a picture:
Yup, that's the internal bra
And it is said that the first procedure done on a 30 year old woman was a success and it’s been said that there have been a few more lined up to have it done as well… just enough to get them to the trials and approved by the Medical Majiggy.
Now let me ask. Would this be comfortable? Wouldn’t you be able to feel the thing in your boob. Not to mention the two straps! Will it be flexible enough to move with your body and you don’t feel like there’s four pins, two for each breast, stuck inside of you. And for heaven’s sake what if those things BREAK. What if they come detached from the ribs. I mean sure they’ll be attached with titanium screws. And what about scar tissue?
And ladies, I get the appeal of them, well actually I DON’T get the appeal of the internal bra, but I DO get the appeal of wanting to have nice and perky breasts (especially for those who had to have them removed for reasons you wouldn’t want to think of), but what I don’t get is that thing getting in your boob.
For the sagging ladies, it’s NOT just the putting in of the bra, but it will ALSO be completely remodeling the boob. I mean I don’t know a whole lot about surgery and all that jazz, but even if you attach something to the INSIDE of the boob, there’s always going to be skin left, you don’t just prop up the tissue inside and expect the skin to automatically plop right back the way it used to be. It sometimes take years to get the skin sagging in the first place, how long do you think it will take the skin to get back WITHOUT a little nip and a little tuck.
I’m sure there are a ton of explanations out there for these questions, but I still do not get the appeal. Implants I get and the nipping and tucking of the to much skin I also get, but getting things screwed to your ribs just doesn’t appeal to me.
