The unique properties of stem cells of self-renewing and regenerating new cells make them highly invaluable in the field of medicine and healthcare treatment. Besides, cell-based therapies are less invasive, cost-effective, and less painful compared to surgeries. Let’s take a detailed look at the key advantages that stem cell therapy offers.
- Minimally invasive treatment - Stem cells, in most cases, are either administered through intravenous, intraarticular, or intramuscular infusions. It is comparatively less painful, less traumatic, and less time-consuming than surgeries. It reduces stressful situations in patients.
- Minimal recovery times - Stem cell therapy’s results can be observed in patients very soon and the recovery period is also very short. Most individuals recover from painful injuries or conditions in less time than they would have recovered from surgical procedures.
- Could reverse complex health injuries - Stem cell therapy directly addresses the root cause of symptoms rather than just masking the symptoms and giving temporary relief. For instance, stem cell treatment for anti-aging promotes the natural healing of damaged tissues and regeneration of new tissues which reverses or slows down the process of aging and makes you feel youthful and active again.
- No rejection of risk - Stem cells, particularly those collected from Wharton’s Jelly, are fresh cells isolated from the umbilical cord of a newborn child and are immune-system privileged. Hence, there is no risk of cell rejection. Matching of Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) is not necessary.
- Several promising applications - From orthopedic conditions to neurological diseases, aging to blood disorders, and autoimmune conditions to addressing infertility - stem cell treatment is effective in treating a wide range of health conditions. It helps patients return to normal routine life in less time.
