STORE YOUR ADULT STEM CELLS TODAY
EXPLORE YOUR FUTURE
American Cryostem provides an affordable method for you to store your Adult Stem Cells today. Your stored Adult Stem Cells will enable you to take advantage of the treatments of tomorrow currently being developed in the fields of Personalized and Regenerative Medicine. Regardless of your age, storing your Adult Stem Cells today stops your cells biological clock, preserving their current age. Today, your cells are the youngest they will ever be.RE-DEFINING YOUR FUTURE
Your adipose tissue, commonly know as fat, contains an abudance of powerful regenerative Adult Stem Cells that are responsible for healing and repairing organs and tissue within your body. Adult Stem Cells are not the same as embryonic stem cells.American CryoStem's main service consists of collecting, processing, and storing your Adult Stem Cells. Dr Fadi Bejjani collects a small amount of your adipose tissue (fat) in a simple procedure. Your adipose tissue (fat) is shipped to American CryoStem's laboratory where a clinical process isolates your Adult Stem Cells for storage and personal future use.
PERSONALIZED AND REGENERATIVE MEDICINE
Personalized and Regenerative Medicine are rapidly expanding fields focused on patient specific therapies for many conditions. Treatment methods include using a patient's own Adult Stem cells and other generic materials to heal and repair the body.In 2006, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services stated, "Regenerative Medicine has the opportunity to begin producing complex skin, cartilage, and bone substitutes in as little as 5 years. Tissue and organ patches designed to help regenerate damaged tissues and organs such as the heart and kidneys are within reach in 10 years..."
Worldwide scientific advances using stem cells in the therapeutic, reconstructive, orthopedic and cosmetic applications, are the future of personalized and regenerative healthcare.
WHY ADIPOSE (fat) DERIVED ADULT STEM CELLS?
Adult Stem Cells are found throughout the body in multiple sources including bone marrow, umbilical cord blood and adipose tissue (fat). Adult Stem cells are the body's repair system responsible for restoring the body's important structures, tissue and organs. Scientific interest in Adult Stem Cells from adipose tissue (fat) is focused on their ability to transform into many different cell types.Adipose (fat) Derived Adult Stem Cells are the most abundant type of Adult Stem Cells in the body. They are readily accessible and easy to collect. Adipose (fat) deposits contain vast amounts of Adult Stem Cells, which have the ability to divide, grow and transform into multiple tissues and organs within the body.
Advantages
Adipose (fat) Derived Adult Stem Cells offer key advantages over Adult Stem Cells collected from other sources:Fat is easy to access and economical to collect
Fat tissue contains quantities of Adult Stem Cells that are up to 1000 times greater than that of bone marrow.
Fat collection is a simple outpatient procedure that can be performed in our office. Generally it is minimally invasive with a short recovery period and can be extracted in conjunction with other surgical procedures such as liposuction.
STORE YOUR CELLS TODAY!
As you age, so do your Adult Stem Cells. The younger the Adult Stem Cell, the greater it's capacity to divide, repair, and replenish your organs and tissues. As you age, environmental factors and the body's natural wear and tear adversely affect your cellular health. These factors cause damage to your DNA with associated consequences to your overall health, vitality and life-span.Having your own source of stored cells avoids the time delays, high recurring costs and cellular rejection associated with donor stem cell transplants. Anti-rejection medications taken over a lifetime create substantial financial burdens for patients and their families and can shorten the recipient's life span.
Collecting and storing your Adult Stem Cells today ensures capturing your current cellular age, while your Adult Stem Cells are healthy and "as young as possible," providing the optimal environment for future cellular treatments. Today is the youngest you will ever be, preserve this moment in time.
ADULT STEM CELL COLLECTION PROCESS
COLLECT
American CryoStem's proprietary collection process is designed for areas of the body containing abundant fat deposits holding large quantities of Adult Stem Cells.The collection of your Adult Stem Cells is performed by Dr Fadi Bejjani as a liposuction procedure. Approximately 60 mL of adipose tissue (fat) is taken from an area of your body that contains ample fat. The most common areas are the abdomen (lower belly), outer thigh, or upper hip. It's simple, quick and the benefits could last a lifetime.
PROCESS
Your adipose tissue (fat) is transported to American CryoStem's FDA registered laboratory immediately after it has been collected. The laboratory utilizes state of the art equipment and methodologies to ensure the highest clinical standards are upheld. Your adipose tissue (fat) is processed to extract the Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF) which contains your Adult Stem Cells and regenerative cells including white blood cells, endothelial cells, pericytes, fibroblasts, smooth muscle cells, and pre-adipocytes. Your cells are tested for viability (ensuring live cells were collected) and sterility (free of contaminants) before storage.STORE
Once processing is complete, your specimen is immediately placed into cryogenic storage at -190 degrees Celsius and safely stored in our cryopreservation tanks. FDA approved cryoprotectant media enables cells to survive freezing and subsequent thawing. Inventory control software is used to track specimens from collection to storage and future retrieval with a 24/7 FDA complaint monitoring system.Bio-Insurance
Just as insurance protects you from unforeseen future financial risks, storing your Adult Stem Cells today is an investment in your future health regardless of your current age. the security of knowing that you have your own Adult Stem cells available is assuring, as well as, potentially life saving.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How can I use my stored cells?
The landscape of Personalized and Regenerative Medicine is evolving and new applications are continually being developed. Treatments and studies using Adipose (fat) Derived Adult Stem Cells (ADSCs) are being conducted worldwide. Dr Fadi Bejjani is best qualified to inform you of your current therapies, procedures, and clinical trials using ADSCs. For specific information regarding trials, search: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ and search for adipose stem cell, adult stem cell.Why American CryoStem?
American CryoStem is a life sciences company that adheres to the highest standards of laboratory practice in order to provide the highest quality services for their customers. Their FDA registered cGMP/cGTP laboratory combines cutting-edge proprietary technology with superior quality in the handling of your cells. Their vision for the future is one where every individual has a personal cellular resource stored that will allow them to take advantage of the therapies and cures being discovered today.How long can adipose derived Adult Stem Cells be stored?
Current scientific evidence suggests adipose derived Adult Stem cells can be stored indefinitely. Cells derived from other sources such as umbilical cord blood, bone marrow and the reproductive system have been successfully stored and utilized for decades.Can I donate my cells to another person or donate them to the public bank?
Under current FDA regulations, stem cell specimens prepared for autogous (self) use may not be used by a third party unless additional required sample testing is performed.How will I know that my cells were collected and stored?
American CryoStem will notify you when your specimen arrives at their laboratory for processing. To verify a successful collection, their laboratory tests your specimen for viability (ensuring live cells were collected) and sterility (free of containments). Once verified, processing is complete. Approximately 2 weeks post processing, both you and Dr Fadi Bejjani will be notified that your specimen has been processed, tested and cryogenically stored.How do I request the retrival/release/shipment of my cells?
How long does it take?
American CryoStem requires advance written notice to release your stored cells. This can be done using the form attached to your customer agreement. A minimum of two (2) business days days is required from the date of your request to shipment.How are my cells transported when I need them?
Your cells are transported from American CryoStem's laboratory to their destination worldwide in a portable cryogenic tank to maintain consistent temperature and viability.HOW TO GET STARTED
