A woman in Australia has become the first participant in a clinical trial to have her breasts
augmented using her own fat cells via a new technique
that aims to use a person's own tissue to give them their desired breast shape.
So today, we're going to be talking about the evolutionary uniqueness of the human breast,
the history of breast augmentation and reconstruction surgeries, and the promise of this new technique.
