Autologous Bone Marrow Concentrate Therapy

The autologous bone marrow concentrate therapy is when your own adult bone marrow is used to isolate stem cells. The stem cells are used to repair damaged ligaments, cartilage, discs, muscles, nerves and bones. It is also involved with tissue regeneration and wound healing. The addition of high-density platelet rich plasma (HD – PRP) also known as pure platelet rich plasma enhances the reproduction of adult stem cells as well as their movement to the damaged tissue area.

Procedure:

The autologous adult stem cells originate from bone marrow. The harvest site for the adult stem cells is usually the iliac crest. After the bone marrow is harvested it is then placed into a bidirectional centrifuge for a double spin. This gives us  highly concentrated bone marrow stem cells- often referred to as pure bone marrow stem cells. After the centrifugation process the isolated pure adult bone marrow stem cells are used in combination with high-density pure platelet rich plasma (also highly concentrated). The mixture is then administered to the site of injury with the use of ultrasound guidance for accurate placement. This procedure is safe and effective.
