Stem Cell Application in Chronic Wound Treatment

The main reason a chronic wound does not close is that blood (oxygen) does not reach there. When stem cells are introduced to the wound area, they immediately begin to weave new capillaries. Tissue death stops in the vascularized area, fresh pink skin cells (granulation) are formed, and the wound rapidly shrinks and closes from the edges toward the center.

Yes. To obtain stem cells, the fat taken from the patient's abdominal area (with mini liposuction) is purified by going through centrifuge and enzyme processes in special cell laboratories (cell separating devices) inside the operating room. This process takes an average of 1-2 hours, and the cells are injected into the wound in the same session.
