The progress in medicine is increasing rapidly. Treatments with autologous stem cells could revolutionize therapeutic methods that are recognized these days.
Stem cells – cells with great potential
Positive experiences with the new stem cell therapies in the treatment of osteoarthritis and general regeneration already exist internationally.
There are a large number of studies worldwide, in which stem cells in the treatment of heart disease, diabetes, joint disease, neurological and endocrine disorders and many other degenerative processes are used.
Meanwhile, the veterinary medicine has many years of excellent experience with the therapeutic use of autologous stem cells in thousands of dogs and race horses.
Therapeutic application of stem cells
We can all enjoy a seemingly infinite reservoir of autologous stem cells: A particularly rich source for the extraction of stem cells is in fact our body fat.
Stem cell therapies with autologous stem cells from adipose tissue are performed as follows:
All treatments are carried out ambulatory under local anesthesia. First, a small amount of fat is gently harvested by microcannular liposuction. The stem cells that are therefrom isolated in a complex laboratory procedure are injected immediately after isolation, either locally to the affected organ or tissue or systemically, depending on the indication.
The therapeutic effect should occur some weeks after the application. A possible further treatment can take place at the earliest 6 months later, depending on the individual medical indication. Follow-up appointments will be individually agreed after the procedure.

I hope you enjoy the exciting reading of the fascinating insights of stem cell research.
