No Surgery Required: How Stem Cells Can Revitalize Your Skin
Skin Regeneration: A Miracle Every 27 Days
The skin, the largest organ of the body, regenerates approximately every 27 days. Healthy skin relies on adult stem cells that renew themselves and differentiate into fibroblasts and keratinocytes. These cells are essential for producing and maintaining the skin’s proteins: collagen, elastin, and keratin. These proteins work together to protect the skin and provide structure, preventing wrinkles, fine lines, and facial sagging. As we age, the number of stem cells drastically decreases, and those remaining become less effective.
Leveraging Stem Cells for Anti-Aging
A primary goal of stem cell research and regenerative medicine is to utilize stem cells to reverse aging signs. The research aims to slow down or eliminate chronic aging symptoms. Early signs of aging such as skin sagging, wrinkles, and a rough texture are among the first to appear on our bodies. At Eternal Medical Center, we use stem cell therapy to help reduce and reverse these aging signs.
Causes of Skin Aging
Major causes of skin aging include damage from UV rays, environmental toxins, inflammation, and oxidative stress. These factors lead to a loss of collagen, elastin, and keratin in the skin. With fewer stem cells available, our skin loses its capacity for repair and self-renewal.
The Power of Stem Cell Therapy
Fortunately, our skin responds well to stem cell therapy. By using stem cells and human growth factors, Eternal Medical Center can reduce aging signs, increase the availability of stem cells, and enhance their potency and effectiveness.
Advanced Techniques at Eternal Medical Center
Eternal Medical Center utilizes adult mesenchymal stem cells sourced from the patient’s own adipose tissue; these are combined with platelet-rich growth factors and amino acids to repair and regenerate organs like the skin, resulting in:
- A younger appearance
- Reduced age spots
- Fewer lines and wrinkles
- Thicker, firmer skin
We employ an FDA-approved method to extract stem cells from adipose tissue, isolate them, and then mix them with growth factors derived from platelets. Amino acids, such as glutathione, are also included to boost the potency of the stem cells. These stem cells are activated and reintroduced into the patient intravenously.
Enhancing Effectiveness with PRP
To improve efficacy, we add Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), a concentrated source of blood plasma derived from your own blood containing growth factors that speed up the healing process. These growth factors also slow aging by encouraging keratinocytes to produce more growth factors that promote collagen and keratin synthesis.
Antioxidants: Boosting Stem Cell Therapy
Antioxidants, including glutathione, vitamin C, and vitamin E, are added to enhance the efficacy of stem cell therapy. Studies have shown that antioxidants help reduce damage from oxidative stress, improve stem cell survival, and increase their potency.
The Benefits of Stem Cell Therapy
Stem cell therapy offers numerous health and vitality benefits for your skin without the risks associated with surgery. It can:
- Make your skin look younger
- Reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles
- Improve uneven pigmentation and sunspots
- Firm up your skin
- Make you feel more energetic and lively.
