Regenerative and Stem Cell Based Medicine

Regenerative Medicine – An Overview

Regenerative medicine refers to treatments and modalities which aim to rebuild the body, repair injury, manage illness, rejuvenate tissue and generally use the body’s own capabilities to restore its natural state. A stem cell, in simple terms, is an undifferentiated cell which has the ability to stay as a stem cell, or develop into another specialised type of cell, for example a muscle or brain cell. Stem-cell-based regenerative interventions are a collection of treatments which specifically involve the activation and stimulation of the cells responsible for building that specific tissue type, however the process is more complex than simply extracting and injecting stem cells.

Understanding Regenerative Medicine

What is important is to understand the terminology used. While many of these treatments do involve the use and stimulation of stem cells, it is not accurate to simply call all of these ‘stem cell treatments’ as there is a lot more to the process. Stem cell treatments have, incorrectly, become a ‘magic bullet’ for many people, with claims of “no more surgery” and “magic cure” attracting more and more clients to clinics providing these treatments. With a complex mix of stem cells, progenitor cells, leucocytes, growth factors and many other compounds, these treatments involve much more than just stem cells. Most regenerative treatments can be used very effectively for specific conditions, once they are correctly prescribed and administered by a qualified professional as part of a comprehensive treatment plan.

Is it right for me?

When considering having a stem-cell-based intervention or regenerative treatment, you need to consult carefully with a qualified healthcare professional experienced and proficient in stem-cell-based therapies. The person providing the treatment should discuss with you all of the available options, including alternate options like surgery if this is relevant, and adjunctive treatments, which may work alongside a stem-cell-based therapy to enhance results. In many cases the treatment alone can indeed provide significant positive outcomes for clients, but it’s the discussion and exploring the options with qualified professionals which leads to a knowledgeable client, and effective results.

What can we treat?

There are many different injuries and conditions that can be treated with stem-cell-based interventions and regenerative medicine, with great success. From sports injuries, degenerative issues associated with normal ageing like joint pains and aches, aesthetic/cosmetic concerns and medical conditions, the list is almost endless, and as these treatments develop and research continues, more and more applications will be discovered.

Client Reviews

Support, When Needed Most

I had three face lift and suture lift procedures for different areas of my upper, lower face and neck with Dr. Sam since 2008 and I have always been pleasantly surprised with results that exceeded my expectations. Dr. Sam is very conservative and honest and despite a complication I developed on my left cheek after the second procedure, he walked me through a very difficult recovery time and all worked out exactly as he explained to me, despite the complication.

Hair Loss after Cancer recovery

I was sick at a young age, and the treatment for this caused a lot of hair loss. My hair grew back, but it was much thinner than before. As the years progressed this combined with male pattern baldness and the thinning continued.

Restoring Self-Confidence

One side of my face is obviously not a mirror-image of the other side and this has caused me tremendous anxiety and self-conscious actions of the years including covering one part of my face with my hair or always turning my head sideways talking to people. Dr. Sam used Stem cells to correct the volume of my awkward side and lips and there is no money to pay to be able to look people in the face…straight-on. Thank you Dr. Sam and team – forever grateful.

The Distance is Worth It

I have been travelling from Galway for the last five years to Malahide at least twice a year for my cosmetic treatments – I am every time very satisfied and I have no intention to go anywhere else.

PRP helped me with Shoulder Pain

I had suffered chronic shoulder pain for years as a result of an old sporting injury, and after several corticosteroid injections and rehab, I still had no improvement. The team at NuaCell identified some degeneration in the joint, and I had 2 PRP treatments into the shoulder.
