Stem Cells for Longevity:
The de León

Stem Cells are a promising avenue for Longevity research, and some studies suggest they can delay the aging process.

At RegeneZone and The Hormone Zone, our physician experts use cutting-edge therapies to help with your Longevity Goals. Be sure to enquire with the office about the specifics.

How Stem Cells May Help With The Aging Process:

Anti-inflammatory effects  

Stem Cells can suppress the activation and function of various inflammatory causing immune cells that may help with age-related inflammation call “inflammaging”. 

 

Regulation of Cellular Senescence 

Cellular senescence occurs when cells stop functioning, but do not die. These zombie cells secrete inflammatory proteins that negatively affect surrounding cells, leading to aging. Stem Cells can modulate the genes that make cells become senescent and zombie-like thereby reducing the detrimental effects on tissue function. 

 

Antioxidant Effects 

Aging is associated with increased oxidative stress and cell death. Stem Cells can enhance cellular antioxidant defenses, scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS), and modulate programmed cell death and age related damage. 

 

Promotes Blood Vessel Growth 

As the body ages, blood vessel formation declines, which can impair tissue repair and contribute to age-related diseases. Stem Cells can promote angiogenesis by stimulating endothelial cells to help new blood vessels grow. 

 

Tissue repair and regeneration 

Stem Cells carry and secrete growth factors and other bioactive molecules that stimulate tissue repair and regeneration. This can help counteract age-related degeneration. 

 

Epigenetic changes 

Stem Cells may help reverse age-related changes in DNA and help reverse age-related changes and promoting a youthful cellular state. 

 

Waste removal 

Stem Cells may help remove damaged DNA fragments, oxidized and misfolded proteins  

 

Cell to Cell Communication 

One of the most important clinical aspects of Stem Cells is their ability to send optimal signals to all tissues in order to improve their function. 

Clinical Uses of Stem Cells for Body Aging Treatments in Scottsdale

The clinical uses of Stem Cells for body aging treatments include: 

Stem Cells can promote collagen and fibrin synthesis, improve skin elasticity, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Stem Cells may also help with age-related inflammation and oxidative stress, the foundation for improved skin health. 

Skincare: Stem Cells can be applied topically to the skin in serums, creams, and masks. 

Microneedling: Stem Cells can be combined with microneedling to help them penetrate the skin more deeply. 

Dermal Fillers: Stem Cells can be mixed with dermal fillers to improve their performance and longevity. 

Laser Treatments: Stem Cells can be used to promote tissue repair and reduce inflammation after laser treatments. 

Osteoarthritis and joint health: Stem Cells have shown potential in treating age-related joint degeneration by promoting tendon, ligament, and cartilage repair, lowering inflammation, and improving the immune response.  

Muscle regeneration: Age-related muscle loss, known as sarcopenia, can lead to reduced strength and mobility. Stem Cells can promote muscle regeneration by stimulating satellite cells. When muscle tissue is damaged, satellite cells are activated and begin to proliferate, fusing with damaged muscle fibers to form new muscle tissue. Stem Cells can help trigger this activation process.  

Neurodegenerative diseases: Stem Cells may help with age-related neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, by lowering inflammation in the brain called neuroinflammation. Stem Cells can also promote brain cell survival and facilitate brain cell repair and regeneration. 

Cardiovascular health: Stem Cells can improve blood vessel function and promote new vessel growth (angiogenesis), which may help address age-related cardiovascular issues, such as atherosclerosis and ischemic diseases that lead to lowered blood flow that is related to poor exercise recovery and sexual dysfunction. 

Metabolic health: Stem Cells may help regulate blood sugar (glucose) and cholesterol (lipid) metabolism, improving insulin sensitivity and helping with metabolic disorders, such as Insulin Resistance and Type 2 Diabetes. 

Who benefits from Stem Cell Therapy? 

  • Aging adults 

Anyone experiencing changes in skin appearance, joint function, muscle strength, and brain function, may benefit from Stem Cell therapy. If you are suffering from age-related conditions, such as osteoarthritis, neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzehimer’s or Parkinson’s Disease, or cardiovascular disease, OR you have joint pain, muscle spasms, water retention, fatigue, headaches, hair loss, sinus issues, excessive sweating, digestive issues, poor skin health, overweight, and memory problems, you may benefit from Stem Cell therapy as a part of a comprehensive treatment plan.  

  • The Proactive Patient 

People are understanding more than ever that prevention and a proactive approach to health is the key to an optimal life. Many patients are also dealing with the problems of a poor diet with high sugar and processed foods, smoking and excessive alcohol, stress, digestive issues and leaky gut, and insomnia. Anyone who is proactive about maintaining their health as they age and are interested in cutting-edge therapies to promote overall well-being and counteract the problems of poor lifestyle habit, then Stem Cell therapy may be beneficial.   

  • Aesthetic Medicine Patients 

People seeking to improve the appearance of their skin by reducing fine lines and wrinkles, promoting new collagen growth, and improving skin elasticity may be interested in Stem Cell therapy as a part of their skincare program. 

  • Athletes and Sports & Fitness Warriors 

People who engage in regular physical activity and want to counteract age-related declines in muscle mass, strength, endurance, and joint health may find Stem Cell therapy helpful.

Additional Questions

What are Stem Cells?

Stem cells are the body’s natural repair cells. They can transform into different types of healthy cells, making them powerful tools for repairing, regenerating, and healing damaged tissues in regenerative medicine treatments.

How Do Stem Cells Help With Skin Regeneration?

Stem cells have therapeutic properties and applications in the regeneration and repair of skin tissue; they contribute to the regulation and promotion of the healing process by activating different pathways that can modulate the state of inflammation, promoting angiogenesis, proliferation, differentiation, cell migration, and apoptosis, and ensuring that the regular healing process takes place in situations it normally would not, such as diabetes, which affects the body’s natural healing and scarring processes, inhibiting its ability to recover the shape and function of the affected tissue.
