The key to escaping diseases caused by aging and frailty is 'stem cells'

By 2020-10-07No Comments

When viewing the factors of aging from a cellular perspective, there are countless causes, including the accumulation of toxic metabolites in the body, inflammation, a poor immune system, failure of the DNA damage repair system, stem cell depletion, epigenetic mutations, apoptosis, necrosis, loss of proliferation and self-renewal capabilities, shortening of telomeres (gene length-extending enzymes), genomic instability, changes in gene phenotype, and weakened defense against free radicals.


In addition to this, it includes autophagy (the process of swallowing and eliminating unnecessary substances), diseases such as diabetes, kidney disease, cancer, and heart disease, hormonal disturbances, radiation, environmental pollution, and unhealthy lifestyle habits such as overeating and obesity. Aging leads through frailty, through a swamp of disease, to death.

However, the key to solving this all at once is precisely stem cells. While a balanced diet, appropriate exercise, sufficient sleep, and a positive mindset are commonly known as key virtues for maintaining health, they are not the complete solution. On the other hand, although research on stem cells is currently ongoing, they are theoretically perfect. This is because everything can be resolved by replacing old and diseased cells with new ones.

Mujib Ullah and Zhongjie Sun, physiology professors at the University of Oklahoma Medical School who study cellular aging, published a review in the January 2018 issue of *Stem Cell Research & Therapy* stating that stem cells occupy the innermost of the core concentric circles of life phenomena. According to them, even cutting-edge new drugs are, at best, merely peripheral means of controlling a few receptors, neurotransmitters, or genes. Their view is that quitting smoking, environmental protection, and healthy lifestyle habits remain low-priority means of health promotion. In contrast, stem cells hold the status of being capable of fundamentally solving all these problems.

Stem cells have long been applied clinically from an anti-aging perspective. First, when a mixture of stem cells extracted from fat and an appropriate amount of pure fat cells is injected into sunken and darkened areas of the face, the skin dramatically becomes clear and transparent, and one can feel a sense of vitality as sagging skin springs back. SC301 Clinic in Samseong-dong, Seoul, has been improving its results through over 1000 stem cell facial fat grafting procedures since 2007. In February of this year, Oxford, UK

The proof of a technique to increase the stem cell engraftment rate to 75.1% through a journal-published paper served as the foundation for the remarkable effects of facial fat grafting.

 

Furthermore, stem cell breast augmentation is already gaining recognition as the most ideal breast fat grafting method, based on the same clinical principles as facial fat grafting. It has become acclaimed as the safest and most effective breast surgery because its engraftment rate has been proven through SCIE-level papers based on thousands of breast augmentation cases.

Furthermore, intravenous injection of a pale pink stem cell solution offers the potential for rejuvenation. Through SC301 Clinic's 'IV-10' injection, stem cells travel through the bloodstream to reach damaged and exhausted cells, revitalizing them. This is known as the homing effect. Consequently, the skin becomes smoother, basic physical strength improves leading to less fatigue, and it helps overcome the loss of motivation, appetite, and libido. It also alleviates pain of unknown origin and provides significant assistance in the treatment of various chronic or intractable diseases. The name IV-10 carries the meaning of turning back the clock on one's life cycle by 10 years through intravenous injection.

The country is overflowing with clinics claiming to offer stem cell treatments. However, to maintain an engraftment rate of over 70%, stem cells must be inserted into the desired site as soon as possible immediately after extraction using advanced centrifuges to prevent damage from high heat or vibration, combined with rapid processing and skillful techniques. Furthermore, the procedure must be capable of injecting 5000 million stem cells of high purity in a single session. Conversely, if stem cells are handled with crude equipment and techniques, the engraftment rate remains at only 20–30%, and the procedure
The results will only lead to dissatisfaction. Since you may suffer not only financial loss but also wasted time and emotional distress, it is important to find an experienced clinic.
