Adipose Derived Stem Cells
Adult fat stem cells
What are adipose derived stem cells?
Stem cells are pluripotent cells that can self replicate into any type of cell. The stem cells found in fat (adipose) tissue are known as adipose-derived stem cells. (fat=adipose)
These cells can easily replicate into self restoring fat tissue.
* Adipose(fat) derived stem cells = ADSCs
- Fat Tissue: Injected stem cells help prevent loss of fat tissue
- Supporting Blood Vessels: Blood vessels bring nutrients and oxygen to fat tissue so more cells can survive
- Building Blood Vessels: Stem cells send signals to surrounding tissues to make new blood vessels
- Cells On Standby: Injected cells are easily damaged and have a shorter life span than normal cells. When cells die nearby pluripotent stem cells are ready to become new adipose cells to prevent loss of fat tissue
Treatment Possibilities
Adipose stem cell Indications
Effective Treatments With A High Engraftment Rate
Body Shape: Cosmetic Enhancements
Cosmetic enhancements using fat tissue can give the body new volume. Fat tissue extracted from ample areas is re-injected into weaker areas to give patients their ideal figure. Previously, when only fat tissue was transplanted, the fat was absorbed and the engraftment rate was low, but when adipose stem cells were added, the engraftment rate was high. Fat graft with adipose derived stem cells make it easy for getting the perfect figure naturally.
Facelifts: Lift Up & Rejuvenation
Adipose derived stem cell injections can help visibly reduce signs of aging by filling in wrinkles and giving skin new elasticity. Adipose-derived stem cell treatment are long-lasting and more effective than transplanting fat alone. Over the past decade, fat and adipose stem cell transplantation has been widely used as a new anti-aging alternative. The weakness is that you need to extract a lot of your own fat to increase volume. This is a difficult method for thin patient. Recently, a new stem cell therapy has emerged.
Fat Stem Cells, easy to obtain from adults
The characteristics of adipose derived stem cells?
Fat stem cells have many strengths. It has been widely used for 10 years. Even today, it is a good method for volume-up plastic surgery.
- Higher Engraftment Rate (vs only graft fat)
- Autologous Fat Use (Allogeneic fat cannot be used)
- Mesenchymal stem cells with regenerative capacity
- Can be Cryopreservation
