Regenerative medicine combines principles of biology and engineering to develop therapies for diseases characterized by cell depletion, lost tissue, or damaged organs. The broad aim of regenerative medicine is to engineer, regenerate, or replace tissue using natural growth and repair mechanisms, such as stem cells. Regenerative medicine is a way to fix the root causes of disease by harnessing the body’s natural capacity to repair itself – in other words, to regenerate lost cells and tissue and restore normal functioning. Ultimately, the goal of regenerative medicine is to improve the daily wellbeing of patients with debilitating chronic diseases by developing a new generation of therapies that go beyond treating symptoms.
Regenerative medicine is about making you and your body the best you
can be by repairing and restoring damaged tissues and using your
body's natural healing abilities.
What Happens to Your Body Over Time
As the years go by, body stress accumulates, causing your tendons,
ligaments, joints, and other structures to wear down. Sports,
activities, and lifestyle can all lead to:
Loss of muscle strength
Thinning bones
Nerve damage
Joint degeneration
How Regenerative Medicine Can Help You Regain Your Health
Regenerative medicine combines many different techniques to help
repair or replace damaged or worn–down tissues. Regenerative
medicine taps into your body’s natural ability to heal itself.
Treatment Options in Regenerative Medicine
At Restore MD, you can choose from a wide variety of regenerative
medicine treatment options. These are two of the most popular
treatments:
Stem cell therapy uses foundational cells known as stem cells.
These cells are injected into your body and can transform into other
types of cells, including blood, nerve, and skin cells. Stem cell
therapy can repair and renew damaged areas of your body including
tendons, joints, ligaments, and nerves.
Platelet Rich Plasma, also known as PRP, is a component taken
from your blood. A small sample of your blood is placed in a
centrifuge, which separates out the platelet-rich plasma. The plasma
is applied to damaged areas and helps repair and rejuvenate your
tissue. PRP is an excellent option for repairing and renewing damaged
skin, ligaments, and tendons.
Why You Should Consider Regenerative Medicine
Regenerative medicine can help you get relief from chronic pain
associated with joint, tendon, ligament, muscle, and nerve damage.
Unlike conventional medicine, regenerative medicine uses your body’s
natural processes to heal itself. Regenerative medicine can also help
you regain function and range of motion, so you can be more active
and enjoy life more.
What You Can Expect From Regenerative Medicine Treatment
Regenerative medicine treatments are performed on an outpatient basis
and require no hospital stay, so you can easily fit them in with your
lifestyle. You will notice a decrease in pain and other symptoms
typically within a few weeks of treatment.
Regenerative medicine can help reverse the signs of aging, repair
damaged tissues, and help you live your best life. To find out more
