 1. Understanding stem cells


This is a treatment that extracts fat tissue from the body, enzymatically separates and concentrates fresh stromal cells containing adult stem cells, and administers them.


Regeneration of damaged tissues and cells

Reduction of tissue and organ resistance, and begins recovery when damaged


Differentiation into functional cells

In an appropriate environment, they differentiate into various cells that make up the body, such as fat, back, cartilage, muscle, and nerve cells, and replace deteriorated or damaged functional cells


Secretion of growth and nutritional factors

When stem cells are injected, various growth and nutritional factors are secreted, improving the microenvironment of tissues and organs


 2. Stem cell treatment program


■ Stem cell treatment program [V-Shot]  

(Female vaginal dryness, itching, dyspareunia, female function improvement)


Effect: The blood vessels of the vaginal wall are damaged by various causes such as aging and diabetes, causing atrophy of the vaginal wall and decreased secretion of lubricants, which causes itching, dyspareunia, and frigidity.

SH stem cell treatment program [V-Shot] has various positive effects on vaginal health. The main effects are strengthening the elasticity of vaginal tissue through improvement of vaginal wall wrinkles, strengthening vaginal muscles, improving dryness for menopausal women, improving sexual sensation, improving frigidity, increasing endometrial thickness, increasing microvascular density, improving pregnancy success rate, suppressing inflammatory reactions by regulating the immune environment of the endometrium, promoting tissue regeneration, etc. It regenerates vaginal wall cells and blood vessels, creates new vaginal wall cells, restores atrophy of the vaginal wall, and causes sufficient vaginal secretion to improve female function.


Indications

Colpoxerosis, atrophy, vaginitis, itching, dyspareunia, improved sexual sensation, improved frigidity, improved pregnancy success rate


Optional Programs

▣ Gold: Hematopoietic Stem Cells

▣ Premium: Bone Marrow Stem Cells (BMAC) or

Adipose Stem Cells (Mesenchymal Stem Cells)


Recommended Treatment Frequency

■ SH Stem Cell Treatment Program [P-Shot] 

(Erectile dysfunction, decreased erectile power, decreased erectile duration, improved sexual function)


Effect: Men are mainly made up of blood vessel masses, and if men have blood vessel damage or narrowing due to aging, diabetes, or other various causes, they will experience erectile dysfunction, decreased erectile power, decreased erectile duration, etc. When stem cells are injected into the corpora cavernosa of the penis, the smooth muscles of the corpora cavernosa of the penis are strengthened, and blood flow is improved due to the regeneration of narrowed and weakened blood vessels, which leads to a substantial improvement in erectile function. The research results showed that the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) was significantly improved after treatment. Stem cells can solve these male function problems by repairing damaged blood vessels and creating new blood vessels. Stem cell treatment can also help restore the level of male hormone testosterone to normal levels.


Indications

Erectile dysfunction, male sexual function enhancement, penile enlargement (filler), decreased erectile power, decreased erectile duration


Optional Programs

▣ Gold: Hematopoietic Stem Cells

▣ Premium: Bone Marrow Stem Cells (BMAC)


Recommended Treatment Frequency

Stem cells extracted from fat (mesenchymal stem cells) are injected into the knee

'SVF' : selected as a new medical technology

This treatment, recognized as a new medical technology by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, is helpful for patients with mid-stage degenerative arthritis and middle-aged and older people.


Why does knee pain occur?

: When joints become abnormal due to aging, trauma, etc., damage is done to cartilage and bones, causing pain and reducing exercise ability.


abaee98629fad028d1f493ae3b1a6717_1738147343_0431.jpg
 

■ Autologous fat stem cell treatment method and advantages


The treatment is largely divided into two stages.

First, a small amount of fat (about 100 cc) is extracted from the patient's abdomen or thigh, and mesenchymal stem cells are extracted from this fat.

Second, the extracted stem cells are injected into the knee joint to treat the damaged area. It is possible to do this with only local anesthesia, without general anesthesia, and the treatment time is relatively short, about 1 hour.

There is no major disruption to daily life, although 1-2 days of rest is required after the treatment.


While existing treatment methods mainly aim to relieve pain or reduce inflammation, autologous fat stem cell treatment is a treatment method that fundamentally regenerates damaged cartilage. In addition to improving symptoms, it can also slow down degenerative joints, and since it is autologous fat tissue, the risk of complications is low, and long-term effects can be expected with just one treatment.
