LipoGems is a medical technology that uses a patient's own adipose (fat) tissue to treat various orthopedic conditions, including joint pain and arthritis. The procedure involves extracting a small amount of fat from the patient, typically from the abdomen or thighs, processing it to remove impurities, and then injecting the concentrated fat tissue into the affected area.
The processed fat tissue contains a rich supply of reparative cells that can help reduce inflammation, promote healing, and improve tissue regeneration. LipoGems is often used as a minimally invasive alternative to more extensive surgical procedures, aiming to provide pain relief and improve joint function. This technique is commonly used for treating conditions such as osteoarthritis, tendon injuries, and soft tissue injuries.
Dr. Scott Oliver is using this technique to assist his patients in their knee arthritis care as a safe alternative to knee replacement. This FDA approved treatment is now available.
