Did you read the article and the alternate one that was linked in that article? There have been successful tests of this in japan.
"Dozens of women in Japan have received the breast enlargements during trials."
"The use of the cells for cosmetic breast surgery was begun in 2004 by Kotaro Yoshimura, a surgeon at Tokyo University medical school. He said last week: ?I believe that within five years my procedure will be available as plastic surgery and that it will prove very popular.?
"Yoshimura said last week (February 11, 2007) he had had ?no major problems? with the 39 women to whom he had so far administered the treatment. He has also used it to grow new tissue on the faces of three people with disfigurements."
?Breast augmentation is cosmetic but these cells have the potential to treat diseases ranging from cancer to Alzheimer?s.?
