BIOBANKING
Currently, cryogenic technology is gaining more and more relevance, in which human body's own biological tissues and cells are taken and then preserved for a long time, for their possible subsequent use as a therapeutic, preventive or rehabilitative tool.
You can save your biomaterial today, when you are healthy and full of energy, for use in 5, 10 or even 20 years' time.
WHO MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN CRYOPRESERVATION?
- Healthy people who are actively involved in sports or occupational activities with an increased risk of injuries;
- Healthy people working under high stress conditions - "emotional burnout syndrome";
- People at risk of developing oncological diseases;
- Patients - the possibility of using both adipose tissue itself and cell products derived from it in the treatment and rehabilitation of various diseases.
CELL TECHNOLOGIES
Adipose tissue has a high potential for regenerative medicine. It is possible to extract a unique mixture of cells from the adipose tissue with a wide range of effects for the treatment of a large number of diseases.
WHY EXACTLY THE ADIPOSE TISSUE?
- Adipose tissue is a rich source of active regenerative cells available in every human being;
- Virtually painless aesthetic biomaterial sampling procedure in a day-care facility;
- If the patient wishes, it is possible to combine "pleasant with useful": a complete aesthetic liposuction to remove fat deposits from problematic areas, and to preserve biomaterial, which previously had to be disposed of;
- Immediate use of cells with high regenerative potential when treatment is required;
- With advances in medical science, pre-prepared adipose tissue cells will become an indispensable basis for innovative therapies for diseases of various etiologies.
In addition to the high regenerative potential of adipose tissue cells, the adipose tissue is a versatile natural material for replenishing soft tissue defects in the correction of breast shape (both for aesthetic purposes and after surgery), for correcting facial shapes, and for compensating for soft tissue defects resulting from injuries.
The use of regenerative cells has become firmly established in the arsenal of modern approaches to the treatment of a range of hereditary and acquired diseases. The medicines currently used in healthcare can only help to support the diseased organ and cope with its function. Whereas the regenerative cells restore the structure and function of the diseased organ or tissue, the use of such cells is becoming more relevant than ever.
Adipose tissue cells with high regenerative potential can be used for:
- Injuries and degenerative changes of the musculoskeletal system;
- All types of burns;
- Diseases of the genitourinary system;
- Diseases of the visual organs;
- Chronic liver and kidney diseases;
- Systemic diseases;
- Allopecia;
- To improve the treatment results of complex surgical operations.
