A new treatment to lift up saggy breasts has emerged in the form of Botox, which promises instant results with no side effects, no recovery time and at just 700 pounds.u00a0
The botox breast lift, offered in the UK, was pioneered by a Thai dermatologist, and was first presented at the 2009 World Conference of Cosmetic and Anti-ageing Medicine in Monte Carlo.

Anti-ageing specialist Dr Cecilia Tregear at the Wimpole Skin Care Centre in London's Harley Street is now using the technique.

"Injecting Botox in specific areas around the breasts tones and lifts the skin," the Daily Mail quoted her as saying.

"It shapes the breasts, giving them volume and ironing out wrinkles caused by sun damage on the decolletage," she revealed.

Unlike similar Botox procedures, Tregear's technique involves injecting the botulinum toxin into the skin of the breasts and the surrounding area, not into the muscles.

This, she believes, makes it more effective and less painful. The muscles aren't "frozen" and there's no loss of sensation.

First, a local anaesthetic cream is applied to numb the skin, and then Botox is injected all around and under the breasts.

"There's no pain, no bruising and no downtime. You can put on your clothes and go straight back to work afterwards," Tregear added
