"NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Oct 9, 2013) - IntelliCell Biosciences, Inc. (OTCQB: SVFC), a regenerative medicine company utilizing adult autologous vascular cells (SVCs) derived from the blood vessels, announced today that it has supplied its cellular product, stromal vascular fraction cells ("SVFC"), to Regen Medical PC for the successful treatment of a Type I diabetic patient, who had developed bilateral permanent Bell's palsy.
Previous medical history stated neither the patient's diabetes nor Bell's palsy had improved following 6 months of multiple congenital treatments. Following the unsuccessful treatments, the patient was remitted to the care of Dr. Steven Victor of ReGen Medical PC. Under the care of Dr. Victor, the patient received two treatments of ReGen Medical's proprietary stem cell applications spaced 6 months apart. The result was a total resolution of the Bell's palsy. The patient also noted that his insulin requirements for his Type I diabetes was reduced from 60 Units of Insulin daily to 5-10 Units of Insulin daily."
"If not for our successful treatments, this patient was going to have to undergo corrective surgery of his eye and face and retire from his job due to slurred speech. Prior to our treatment the patient had been treated at some of most respected Medical Centers without getting any positive results."
"Bell's palsy is a form of facial paralysis resulting from a dysfunction of the cranial nerve VII (the facial nerve) causing an inability to control facial muscles on the affected side. Major complications of the condition are chronic loss of taste (ageusia), chronic facial spasms, facial pain and corneal infections."
