Stem Cell Therapy

Stem cell therapy is a modern and innovative medical method that uses stem cells to regenerate damaged tissues in the body. Stem cells are special cells with a high ability to differentiate; thanks to this feature, they can accelerate the healing process in many diseases and tissue injuries.

Healme Clinic offers effective and reliable solutions to patients with advanced technologies and an expert team in stem cell therapy.

Characteristics of Stem Cells

Stem cells have two main characteristics:

  • Self-renewal: The ability to divide and multiply for a long time.

  • Differentiation: The ability to transform into different cell types in the body.

These features make stem cells indispensable in regenerative medicine.

Applications of Stem Cell Therapy

Stem cell therapy shows promising results in many medical fields. The most common areas where Healme Clinic applies stem cell treatments are:

Orthopedic Diseases

In orthopedic problems such as joint osteoarthritis, tendon, and ligament injuries, stem cell therapy contributes to the regeneration of damaged tissue, reducing pain and improving function.

Cardiovascular Diseases

Stem cells can be used to support heart function by repairing heart tissue after heart failure and myocardial infarction.

Neurological Diseases

In conditions like multiple sclerosis, stroke, and other neurological damages, stem cell therapy may stimulate the regeneration of nerve cells.

Other Areas

Stem cell applications are also being researched for diabetes, autoimmune diseases, and some types of cancer. Healme Clinic closely follows innovations in these fields.

Sources of Stem Cells

Stem cells can be obtained from different sources. The commonly used stem cell sources at Healme Clinic are:

Bone Marrow Stem Cells

Stem cells taken from the bone marrow have been used for many years especially in treating hematologic diseases.

Umbilical Cord Stem Cells

Stem cells obtained from the umbilical cord of newborn babies are an important source for tissue regeneration and immune system support.

Adipose Tissue Stem Cells

Stem cells within the fat tissue obtained by liposuction are increasingly preferred in orthopedic and aesthetic applications.

The Stem Cell Therapy Process

Stem cell therapy at Healme Clinic is a carefully planned procedure. The treatment stages generally include:

Preliminary Evaluation

A detailed assessment of the patient's general health, the disease to be treated, and the stem cell source is conducted.

Collection of Stem Cells

Stem cells are collected from the selected source under sterile conditions. The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia.

Preparation of Cells

The collected cells are purified and multiplied under suitable laboratory conditions.

Injection or Transplantation

Prepared stem cells are directly injected into or transplanted to the treatment area.

Advantages of Stem Cell Therapy

The key advantages of stem cell therapy include:

  • Supports the natural healing process by activating the body's own repair mechanisms.

  • Low risk of side effects due to the use of natural cells.

  • Can be an alternative to surgical interventions in some cases.

  • Faster recovery: Healing time may be shorter compared to traditional methods.

Risks and Side Effects of Stem Cell Therapy

As with any medical procedure, stem cell therapy also carries some risks. These are generally minimal, but at Healme Clinic, we ensure patients are fully informed:

  • Risk of infection

  • Immune reactions

  • Pain and swelling at the treatment site

  • Rarely, risk of tumor formation (very low)

Risks are minimized through appropriate patient selection and sterile application.
