Regenerative Medicine

What is Regenerative Medicine?

Regenerative medicine is based on using the body’s own natural potential to repair, restore and rejuvenate damaged or aging cells and structures to a more healthy and youthful state. Regenerative aesthetics refers to the application of regenerative medicine in aesthetic treatments.

Types of regenerative medicine we provide:

Platelet rich fibrin
- Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) is a 100% natural and autologous solution created using a slow centrifuge concept. PRF preserves the vitality of cells that are undamaged, allowing considerably more platelets, White Blood Cells (WBCs) and even Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) to be obtained, maximizing growth factor stimulation. The plasma clots into fibrin allowing for a much slower release of the growth factor and cytokines for a longer period of time. This concentrated source of growth factors aid in the healing process of damaged tissue and promote cell regeneration.
- Growth factors within PRF:
  - Platelet-derived growth factor—promotes blood vessel growth, cell replication, skin formation
  - Transforming growth factor-b—promotes growth of matrix between cells, bone metabolism
  - Vascular endothelial growth factor—promotes blood vesse
  - Epidermal growth factor—promotes cell growth and differentiation, blood vessel formation, collagen formation
  - Fibroblast growth factor-2—promotes growth of specialized cells and blood vessel formation
  - Insulin like growth factor—a regulator of normal physiology in nearly every type of cell in the body
Exosomes (Extracellular Vesicles)
- Over time, the body naturally produces fewer growth factors for repair and rebuilding.
- As we age, there is a slowing in bio-availability of growth factors. PRP Therapy relies on our growth factors while exosomes do not.
- Exosomes are extracellular vesicles generated by all cells. They utilize umbilical cord tissue to provide a support matrix abundant in young growth factors
- Exosomes can be used to significantly increase skin collagen and elastin.
- Exosomes-mediated information transfer and intercellular communication are necessary to maintain cellular functions.
- This can result in changing the appearance of scars, decrease skin irritation, help with acne, address sagging skin, and reduce age spots, wrinkles, regulate pigmentation, and hair growth.
