Technology addresses reduced stromal cell function or activity by supplementing the endogenous stromal cell population with exogenous stromal cells, i.e., transplanting healthy viable stromal cells isolated from a small adipose tissue sample from another part of your body.
Introducing the SVF-2
In a major development a single disposable device and therapy could become the first FDA-approved cellular medicine treatment for osteoarthritis of the knee. The SVF-2 uniquely harvests, isolates, concentrates and extracts the right amount and type of a patient’s own healing cells for a cellular implant to help control pain, reduce inflammation and repair inflamed tissue in the knee. FDA-approved clinical trials for this no-joint-surgery, minimally invasive option have shown no serious adverse events and significant improvements in pain, stiffness and function.
The Tale of Two Knees
Follow the tale of a pair of twins struggling with knee pain. One chose total knee replacement surgery, spending valuable time and money on the procedure and recovery. The other chose a cellular implant requiring less cost, procedure and recovery time. That is what we call healing intelligently.
Less Is More
Decisions involving medical treatment can be hard to make. Total knee replacements can be complicated for a variety of reasons. With a cellular implant, a patient’s own cells are used which means less pain, no drugs for osteoarthritic pain and less cost. The procedure can also cut down time spent rehabilitating. With a cellular implant, less is more.
Harnessing The Power of Cells
Our bodies have 37 trillion cells with hundreds of different types, many of which are healing and regenerative. By identifying and utilizing those cells, the SVF-2 device and corresponding procedure will act as a catalyst for the body to start healing itself intelligently.
