Can COVID-19 Aftereffects Be Recovered with Adipose-Derived Stem Cells (ADSC)?

By 2025-04-09March 10th, 9No Comments

Hello💕

Plastic Surgery Trend Curator,

This is #SC301Clinic #SeongMichelinGuide!

Today, regarding something that many people are interested in these days,

I’m going to try to cover a very realistic topic.

Although COVID-19 has transitioned to an endemic state,

The aftereffects left on our bodies and minds are still tormenting us.

Have you ever experienced these symptoms as well?

Feeling like it is harder to breathe than before Fatigue that causes me to get tired quickly even with normal activities Skin becoming dry and rough with frequent breakouts Scalp becoming sensitive and feeling like hair loss is progressing

These symptoms are too uncomfortable to simply say they will get better with time.

Fortunately, recent research shows that adipose stem cells, or ADSCs,

Results are emerging that it can help with the recovery from COVID-19 aftereffects.

Let's take a look at the details together now!


🦠 Changes in our bodies since COVID-19

Coronavirus is not just a simple respiratory infection.

The fact that it is a disease affecting the entire body,

By now, everyone must be feeling it.

Severe patients, in particular, even after recovery

It is said that many people experience the following symptoms.

Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), decreased lung function, low oxygen saturation, skin problems, hair loss, pigmentation, hyperactivity of autoimmune response

These changes make it difficult to even maintain daily life.

However, in the recently published paper by Qin et al. (2023),

ADSC has suggested the possibility of alleviating these aftereffects.


🔬 3 Mechanisms of Action of Adipose-Derived Stem Cells (ADSCs)

1️⃣ Immune regulatory ability

ADSCs secrete cytokines such as IL-10 and TGF-β that suppress inflammation, while

It can help soothe an overactive immune response.

If autoimmune inflammation decreases

Your body will feel much less tired, and your recovery speed will be faster.

2️⃣ Inhibition of pulmonary fibrosis

Pulmonary fibrosis that can occur after COVID-19 infection

It is associated with shortness of breath.

ADSCs play a role in blocking this fibrosis process.

It can protect lung function.

3️⃣ Cell-free treatment via exosomes

ADSCs secrete small nanoparticles called exosomes,

This exosome can produce a therapeutic effect even without cells.

It is gaining attention as a safe and non-invasive method.


🏥 What were the results in actual clinical trials?

In the paper by Qin et al.

An experiment involving the intravenous administration of ADSCs to severely ill COVID-19 patients is introduced.

What were the experimental results?

The survival rate increased noticeably and

It is said that inflammation levels (CRP, IL-6, etc.) and lung damage indicators have significantly improved.

As well as

Symptoms such as skin troubles, pigmentation, and rashes have also been alleviated.

There were reports that overall health improved as immune balance also normalized.

한마디로, 전신 회복에 도움이 되는 줄기세포(SVF) 치료라는 거죠!


💡 What does it mean in plastic surgery?

COVID-19 aftereffects aren't limited to respiratory or immune issues!

Cases of encountering such symptoms are also increasing in plastic surgery clinics.

Individuals with worsening hair loss or scalp problems; patients with chronic hyperpigmentation or skin issues; cases where recovery after surgery is unusually slow or inflammation occurs easily.

In such cases, ADSCs can be a very useful adjuvant treatment.

✔ Hair loss management using ADSC on the scalp ✔ Skin regeneration care using ADSC exosomes ✔ Systemic supportive therapy for regulating immune balance before and after surgery

Even in dermatology or cosmetic surgery

Considering that ADSC exosome ampoules are already being used,

It seems like the era is coming where even plastic surgery clinics are managing recovery!


✨ In the future, this kind of treatment might be possible.

These days, exosome cosmetics

Although it can be easily found nearby,

Medical-grade stem cell exosomes are

You can expect a recovery effect on a completely different level!

Seongchelin Family, please make sure to remember this~


Our amazing friend, Adipose Stem Cell ADSC

Although they say COVID-19 is over,

There are many people whose bodies, skin, and immunity are still recovering.

However, rather than just worrying,

It is also good to know about and utilize new treatment methods like this.

It could be a great help, right?

Adipose stem cells are truly amazing friends.

Not only does it make your skin beautiful, but,

To think that it can now help with lungs, immunity, and even COVID aftereffects.

Plastic surgery clinics are no longer just places to change one's appearance,

It is becoming a 'total care space' that takes care of both recovery and health.

Dear members of the Seongchelin Family,
