So, what exactly is SVF Stem Cell Therapy?

A “stem cell” is any cell within your body that can not only replicate (multiply) but also turn itself into different types of cell. SVF, or Stromal Vascular Fraction, is a combination of stem cells and other regenerative cells as well as growth factors and cytokines that aid in repair and differentiation. If your body needs cartilage to repair or strengthen a joint, a stem cell can become that. Muscle tissue breakdown? Stem cells can do that too. Unlike the controversy-ridden practice of “embryonic stem cells,” the adult stem cells we use in our treatments are ones that already reside in every individual. These stem cells are extracted using a painless, outpatient procedure and once isolated, can differentiate into connective tissue, blood vessels, bone, and nerve tissue. In their “stem” form, these cells have no purpose other than to wait for instructions to differentiate as needed. But when a wound needs healing, or inflammation reduced they leap into action. In fact, you will be surprised to learn how many different conditions and diseases can be treated using just one type of tissue, namely your unused adipose (fat) tissue. As it turns out, fat is loaded with these valuable regenerative entities found in the SVF- stem cells. Because the majority of patients in the United States have an adequate stem cell count, the stem cells recovered can be used right away without the need of culturing, which is the rule with the other types of stem cell. While making the procedure more convenient for the patient, this also ensures that the cells have no chance of rejection because the cells are purely the product of the patient’s own body.
