Modern medicine is entering a new and exciting time with the ethical and non-invasive use of stem cells from a patients’ own body for cosmetic and
sports injury
procedures. DreamBody provides a ground-breaking take on the standard
facelift
with the
Facelift Prolotherapy
and can help prevent surgeries and chronic use of
pain
killers from
sports injuries
with its
Regenerative Injection Therapy.
Regenerative Injection Therapy (RIT)
As our bodies grow older, the ability to heal completely becomes more difficult and less likely. With the use of DreamBody’s
Regenerative Injection Therapy (RIT)
, our bodies can fully heal nagging
injuries
and troubled
joints
that have grown susceptible to re-injury over time. In addition to the traditional
prolotherapy
that has been used for over forty years, our doctors have been specially trained in the use of autologous Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and un-manipulated Adult Stem Cell
Prolotherapy
— an unmatched alternative to surgery or
pain
medications.
What is Regenerative Injection Therapy?
Regenerative Injection Therapy
, or Prolotherapy
is the injection therapy
of natural substances directly into damaged musculoskeletal tissues in order to trigger the production of growth factors. This launches a controlled inflammation that stimulates the body’s natural healing mechanisms to lay down new, strong collagen fibers and cells.
What areas of the body can the procedure be done?
Any
joint
or muscle group may be treated.
How will the patient feel after the treatment?
While the
prolotherapy treatment
itself is not very painful because local anesthetics are used, after the procedure, you will have localized soreness and discomfort, especially after bone marrow aspiration. Most patients find over the counter medications and rest sufficient to help with the joint pain.
Are there any risks of getting the treatment done?
There are very few risks involved. You will likely be sore for a few days after the procedure. Infection is within the realm of possibility but is almost unheard of in the
Regenerative Pain
Medicine community.
How often is the treatment needed?
Most people require two to six
regenerative injection therapy treatments
to achieve the desired result. Each prolotherapy treatment
is spaced approximately three to six weeks apart.
How quickly until I notice improvement and less pain?
Typically, patients notice improvement after two weeks and continue to notice continual improvement months after the
joint pain treatment.
Who are the ideal candidates for this treatment?
Any person with chronic
joint pain
or muscle pain
is a likely candidate and should schedule a consultation to determine the best prolotherapy treatment
for their condition.
Will insurance cover the procedure?
Unfortunately, not.
How was Dr. Budnick trained on this procedure?
Dr. Paul Budnick, Medical Director at DreamBody Medical Centers in
Scottsdale,
and Dr. Ramon Esquerdo were trained by world renowned prolotherapy doctor,
Dr. Harry Adelson.
Adult Stem Cell Facelift
Facelift Prolotherapy
is one of the latest procedures in
cosmetic surgery
and has been greatly utilized as of late by top
cosmetic surgeons
across the United States. The procedure takes fat that hosts stem cells from the patient’s body and places the fat and stem cells in areas of the face to create a full, natural look. With
Facelift Regenerative Injection Therapy
, the lost volume that comes with aging can be completely restored.
Where are these stem cells coming from?
Non-embryonic adult stem cells are found in the fat of the patient’s body.
Will the procedure leave scars?
No.
Will I be put to sleep?
No. The procedure is minimally invasive and does not require general anesthesia.
Is Face lift Prolotherapy safe?
Yes. Since it is your own fat there is no allergic or adverse reaction that can happen from the fat stem cells.
Is it painful?
Most patients report feeling mild pressure during the injections that is controlled with local anesthesia and some soreness in the areas treated for about 1 to 2 weeks after the
prolotherapy procedure
that does not require pain medication.
How long of a recovery?
You will be able to resume your normal daily life immediately, limited by the degree of swelling that you experience after the procedure.
How long do the results last?
The results last for about two years.
Will it make my face look unnatural or fat?
No. The procedure restores the youthful look by restoring the 3-dimensional balance to the face.
How much does it cost?
This procedure will end up costing you less than regular
Botox
or Filler
appointments over two years and will only need to be done once for that time span.
