The “Internal Bra”

by

Dr. Eyal Gur, an Israeli plastic surgeon, has developed an “internal bra” that women can wear for the rest of their lives. The internal bra is a harness-like device that is inserted under the skin using a local anesthetic during a 40-minute outpatient procedure. According to Dr. Gur, the internal bra gives women support and lift, essentially eliminating the need for a traditional bra.

The “cups” of the internal bra are made of silicone, and inserted under the skin with two tiny incisions underneath each breast. “Straps” are then attached with titanium screws to the ribs between the breast and shoulder to hold the cups in place. The straps are then stitched to the cups and tightened to lift the breasts into the desired position.

Avi Cohen, the managing director of  Orbix Medical, the company marketing the bra, expects the procedure to become widely available in Europe within the next 18 months.

The first woman to receive her internal bra was operated on by Belgian surgeons in the beginning of November and is so far “thrilled with the results.”

    Imagine having to explain that to airport metal detector security personnel. “Oh, I have titanium screws in my chest to… umm… stabilize my ribcage. Yeah, that’s it.”

    Haha! Great effective euphemisms. =b

    Innovative, but I still see potential complications with it.

    Walter…. ummm the screws are made of a material that doesnt set off metal detectors. much like the screws they use to do fusions of the spine and so forth. but back in the day… that would be rather funny over hearing someone trying to explain. LOL.

    I would so prefer this over a traditional breast lift! Bummer that it won’t be available any time soon.

    Okay, so what happens if the woman becomes pregnant and her breast get much bigger..Or for that matter what happens if the woman loses weight..This would be my concern..Are these things expandable or do they shrink to fit..??? Sounds way to risky for me…
