tem Cell Treatments at Wellness Rejuvenation in Las Vegas and Henderson

Stem Cells Beverly HillsConventional treatments for degenerative arthritis, soft tissue injury, COPD, diabetes, kidney and autoimmune diseases all have one thing in common. They help mask symptoms nicely, but they do not change the course of the condition. They do not REPAIR  the problem!

Regenerative Medicine with stem cell procedures is becoming the new paradigm. The treatments offer the possibility of repair and healing the condition, while providing symptom relief at the same time.

Here is an example. When an athlete sustains an ankle ligament injury, it may take six to nine weeks to heal. At that point, the athlete can get back on the field.

There are two problems with this scenario that stem cell therapy can fix. The first is the time frame. Stem cell therapy may halve the time necessary to heal these injuries.

The second problem is that ligament injuries, when allowed to heal naturally, do not heal back to 100%. The same goes for tendon injury. With repetitive injury, the chances for it continuing to occur increase. With stem cell therapy, the injury may be able to heal back to 100%.

Regenerative treatments may permit patients to avoid or delay the need for surgery when it comes to sports injuries, arthritis and other conditions. Surgery for kidney/lung/heart disease may not be an option to begin with, so the stem cell treatments may be a game changer for the patient!

With such a low risk, outpatient stem cell procedures offer a tremendous upside. Make your appointment at Wellness Rejuvenation today!

U

mbilical Cord/Amniotic Stem Cell Injections

Amniotic Stem CellsAmniotic and Umbilical Cord stem cell therapy for musculoskeletal, organ and systemic problems is showing a lot of promise for patients who suffer from arthritis, tendonitis, COPD, kidney/heart disease and autoimmune diseases . Since the amniotic and umbilical derived stem cell tissue is not derived from embryonic stem cells or fetal tissue, there are no ethical issues with the treatment.

 

The amniotic/umbilical stem cell treatment consists of an injection to the afflicted area or an IV infusion. The therapy is designed to actually change the course of the condition and not just mask the symptoms. This treatment has significant potential for those in pain, and could actually correct structural problems while treating pain and inflammation.

 

Amniotic and umbilical derived stem cell material offers at least four properties that are beneficial to the injured area:

  1. A very high concentration of stem cells
  2. Anti-inflammatory cytokines and growth factors
  3. Hyaluronic acid which is a great lubricating factor for joints
  4. mRNA and exosomes that help with repair.

 

When the stem cell therapy is performed, it comes from consenting donors who have undergone elective c-sections. The material is processed at an FDA regulated lab, and is checked for a full slate of diseases. The regenerative material has been used over 100,000 times in the US and Europe with minimal adverse events reported.

During treatment, the Las Vegas stem cell doctor will inject the fluid after sterilizing the area. Along with the amniotic material, numbing medicine is included. For an IV treatment, the infusion is performed in a sterile fashion.

Initial small studies are showing that amniotic stem cell injections work well for the following indications:
1) Tendonitis
2) Ligament Injury
3) Arthritis
4) Sports Medicine Injuries
5) Cartilage Defects
6) Degenerative Disc Disease
7) Spinal Arthritis
8) Neck & Back Pain
9) Nonhealing wounds from diabetes or other conditions
10) Kidney Failure
11) Cardiomyopathy
12) Autoimmune Diseases
13) Diabetic and Peripheral Neuropathy
14) Neurologic Diseases – Parkinson’s, Alzheimers

RP Therapy in Orthopedics

PRP therapy Beverly HillsThe use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy in in orthopedics, pain management and cosmetic applications is becoming a common method of treatment. This is due to the fact that PRP offers many benefits. Those working with PRP for clinical purposes have stated that it offers a high-level of success, and there are significant opportunities for patients who undergo this form of therapy for pain relief, urology applications and aesthetics.

While this form of therapy was first created in the early 1970s, it has advanced over the past several years, and now, it is commonly used. For patients who are looking for a treatment method that helps to relieve pain, heal damage, get rid of wrinkles, help with erectile dysfunction and more, then PRP can lead to long-term success.

How is PRP being used in Orthopedics?

When there is injury to one of the soft tissues, ligaments, or muscles within the body, the body sends what is known as platelets to the damaged area. When the platelets reach the damaged area, they work to repair the structure and regenerate new cells within it. While the body performs this task on its own, it can occur at a much faster rate when PRP is applied to the area in its compressed form.

Studies being done on PRP in orthopedics have shown that this type of therapy can be beneficial in many body regions for the patient, especially when the platelets are placed correctly within the areas that need to be treated. While the effectiveness of this form of therapy is well-known, PRP use in orthopedics is still being questioned. While it can be useful in certain areas, such as repairing, it may cause clotting to occur, which can take away from the overall effectiveness of the therapy by causing issues within another area of orthopedics.

How is PRP being used in Aesthetics?

Platelet rich plasma therapy has become extremely popular for treating wrinkles and other facial conditions such as scar tissue. Known as the “Vampire Facelift”, it became extremely popular when Kim Kardashian had success with the treatment. The treatment involves a micro-pen and helps eliminate wrinkles, rough skin areas and more.

How is PRP being used in gynecology and urology?

There has been increasing evidence that PRP works very well for improving erectile dysfunction. In conjunction with amniotic stem cell therapy, the improvements have been tremendous with patients being able to achieve successful erections again. For females, the PRP “G-spot” injection has enhance the ability of women to experience a successful orgasm.

How is PRP Being used in hair restoration?

Undergoing a hair transplant is very expensive. PRP has been shown to be very effective for a minimally invasive treatment, and much more cost effective. The treatment involves a micro-pen and is often performed in conjunction with amniotic stem cell fluid. Usually a few injection treatments are needed to gain the desired effect, and a period of a few months.

About the Repair Response

There are several cells that become inflamed within the body, which leads to further damage within the different areas of the musculoskeletal system. When damage occurs, the body forms blood clots in its defense, and when the clots form, it can be difficult for the platelets needed to get through.

While the platelets are responsible for healing the damage, it can take a long time to heal if they are blocked, which is the main cause of healing problems. This leads to the need for surgical methods for correction. By injecting the platelets directly into the area, the blocking will be avoided, and the platelets will begin the healing process.

Questions about PRP in Orthopedics

While PRP therapy has shown to be effective, it is not appropriate for use in all patients. Prior to using this form of therapy, the patient’s case must be evaluated, and the therapy benefits must be weighed with the pros against the cons. For patients who do make good candidates for the therapy, PRP therapy can be extremely effective in offering pain relief, and also providing long-term healing, which could lead to successful recovery.

For those suffering with issues with soft tissue injuries to tendons or ligaments, cartilage defects or degenerative arthritis, PRP therapy can be effective for treating these problems.
