Mesenchymal Stem Cells Therapy

G clinic

Stem Cell Therapy

The human body is composed of approximately 60 trillion cells. Mesenchymal stem cells found in bone marrow and adipose tissue have the ability to differentiate into various cell types, such as fat cells, bone cells, muscle cells, and blood vessels. They also possess the power of repair andregeneration
(self-healing ability) when there is injury or dysfunction in the body.

However, the number of stem cells decreases with aging. The purpose is to replenish the diminished stem cells in order to repair damaged areas, address abnormalities, and rejuvenate aging parts of the body. At our clinic, we provide adipose-derived stem cell therapy for chronic pain.

Find and repair damaged areas
Homing

Stem cells migrate through blood vessels, lymph vessels, etc., find damaged areas by themselves, accumulate there, and promote repair and regeneration.

Helps repair neighboring cells
Paracrine

Growth factors and other substances released from stem cells repair nearby damaged sites. Various regeneration and repair actions by growth factors can be expected.

Repair distant parts
Endocrine

Even in areas that cannot be reached by direct administration, stem cells adsorbed to the lungs release growth factors, etc., and work on damaged areas.

Adipose Stem Cells

Adipose-derived stem cells possess two main characteristics: "differentiation ability" and "self-repair ability." Other stem cells with similar properties include those derived from bone marrow, placenta, umbilical cord blood, and dental pulp. However, adipose-derived stem cells are preferred in our clinic because they can be easily obtained in large quantities from adipose tissue.

Treatment for Chronic Pain

Chronic pain is a persistent sensation of pain that differs from acute pain. While acute pain resolves as the underlying illness, injury, or burn improves and heals, chronic pain persists even after the underlying cause has been eliminated. Pain is a subjective experience that varies from person to person in terms of expression and perception. In the case of chronic pain, the pain itself becomes a disease.

Stem cell therapy for chronic pain aims to repair damaged tissues using the regenerative properties of one's own adipose-derived stem cells. Additionally, it helps alleviate pain by suppressing inflammation, which is a common cause of pain, through the secretion of anti-inflammatory factors.

Treatment Process

1.Consultation

You will undergo a medical examination by a doctor.

2.Blood test

A blood sample will be taken to conduct blood tests and check for any infections.

3.Adipose Tissue Harvest

Approximately 10g of adipose tissue will be harvested by making an incision in the abdominal skin.

4.Cultivation

Approximately 10g of adipose tissue will be harvested by making an incision in the abdominal skin.

5.Administration

The cultivated mesenchymal stem cells will be reintroduced into your body via intravenous infusion.

FAQ

実際の公開ページでは回答部分が閉じた状態で表示されます。
  • What kind of effects can be expected from the treatment?

    The therapy aims to improve and alleviate symptoms of chronic pain through the anti-inflammatory properties and wound healing abilities of stem cells.
  • How soon can the effects of the treatment be felt?

    While individual experiences may vary, many individuals start to notice the effects within a few days to a few weeks after the cell infusion.
  • How long do the effects last?

    Individual experiences may vary, but many individuals experience the effects for several months to up to three years.
  • Is one treatment session sufficient?

    While it is possible to experience benefits from a single stem cell infusion, it is important to note that complete elimination of pain cannot be guaranteed with just one session. Multiple treatment sessions are often recommended to achieve optimal results.
  • Where and how much fat is harvested?

    A few centimeters of incision is made in the abdomen, waist or buttocks and approximately 10 grams of fat is harvested. It takes about 30 minutes.
  • Is there any pain during fat harvesting?

    Local anesthesia is used, so there is minimal pain. However, you may feel some discomfort during the fat extraction process.
    After fat harvesting, you may experience abdominal pain and discomfort for a few days, as well as ongoing bruising for about a week. There is also a possibility of allergic reactions to the local anesthesia.
  • Are there any precautions to take after fat collection?

    Please avoid bathing, drinking alcohol, strenuous exercise, and boarding airplanes on the day of surgery.
  • How are the stem cells administered?

    Stem cells are administered intravenously through an infusion.
  • Are there any precautions to take after stem cell therapy?

    There are no special precautions to take after stem cell therapy.
  • How long does it take from fat harvesting to cell administration?

    It takes about 4 weeks to culture the stem cells.
  • How long do the effects last?

    Individual experiences may vary, but many individuals experience the effects for several months to up to three years.
