Stem cells have been the centre of attention for many different conversations around the world. Most people think of stem cells only as embryonic stem cells, but there are actually a larger number of stem cells throughout the body that we can make use of in traditional medicine and aesthetic treatments as well. We want to share some of our cosmetic treatments with our patients here at PrimaNora so that you know what stem cell therapy can do to help you appease the ageing process. The first thing we will talk about is what stem cells are exactly and why we consider would using them in our anti-ageing treatments. If you’re looking for a deeper and more effective way to stop your ageing cells, then you might be interested in the dynamic uses of stem cells. The best part is that they come from your very own tissues, so let’s put them to good use.
What are stem cells and how do we create them?
So we mentioned before that the most common type of stem cells are the embryonic and these are derived from embryos which are known for their high level of versatility. Although embryonic stem cells are pluripotent meaning they can become almost any tissue, we don’t work with embryonic stem cells. We not only look for solutions that are at the height of effectiveness but also are noncontroversial and safe. At PrimaNora we have found that other stem cells, derived from your very own fatty tissues can help our patients in various ways. Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that have the ability to alter their structure to become many tissue types depending on the kind of stem cell. There are two other types of stem cells popular in plastic surgery and cosmetic treatments, stem cells derived from bone marrow and those of fatty tissues.
For our purposes at PrimaNora, we extract stem cells from fatty tissues. As soon as we’ve extracted the fat, these stem cells are ready to use after a run through the centrifuge, without any time in the lab that other stem cells require time to generate. In a study done by physicians at UCLA in the United States, they found that up to 200 million stem cells can live within one pound of fat! That’s a lot of stem cells to work with.
What does stem cell therapy have to do with ageing?
The beauty of stem cells is that because they can regenerate and form a variety of tissues based on their many differentiating growth factors, they can also rejuvenate your skin cells and fat loss, or volume loss in the face. Wrinkles and things like pigmentation and thinning skin take over our once vibrant youth. The reason this happens is that our skin cells and other tissues begin to break down. Stem cells are a high-level advancement in cosmetic treatments because we can essentially reduce these issues with ageing by replacing old cells with new ones that will continually regenerate. Our stem cell therapy treatments can help people get rid of unwanted fat in one area of the body and apply the stem cells in that fat to areas where skin look crepey and tired.
Stem Cell Therapy Results
We can inject these stem cells strategically throughout the skin to help replenish lost tissue elasticity and vibrancy. Anti-ageing stem cell therapy may take three to six sessions, depending on the condition of your skin and how much time is needed to see improvement. Sessions are done one to four weeks apart. Ask your physician or cosmetic nurse about your specific recovery details as well as the type of results you should expect.
PrimaNora is different from other cosmetic clinics because we’re the first to the game when it comes to state of the art treatments that will make all the difference in our patient’s lives. We care about our patients and continually asking them what they would like to see more of or what their personal concerns are with their skin care and other cosmetic conditions. If we can find a way to help our patients feel more confident in their everyday lives, we will find it! Call PrimaNora today to schedule your stem cell therapy consultation on 603 7728 2886.
