    What is stem cell banking?

    Preserve your own biologic tissue for the future

    Stem cell banking is the process of collecting a small amount of your own fat tissue — an abundant source of naturally occurring regenerative cells — and preserving it for potential future use.

    • Preserve your own biologic material at your current age
    • Maintain access to your cells for future aesthetic or wellness applications
    • Avoid donor tissue or synthetic alternatives
    • Support a proactive, long-term approach to care

    Important: Stored tissue is intended for potential future use only, and many applications are considered investigational.

    In-office treatment options

    Natural regenerative aesthetic treatments using your own cells

    In addition to stem cell banking, patients may elect to use a portion of their processed tissue during the same visit for aesthetic or patient-directed wellness applications.

    Micronized Fat Transfer

    A portion of your harvested fat may be refined into a smooth, injectable form and used to restore facial volume, improve contour and symmetry, and enhance a naturally refreshed appearance.

    This offers a natural alternative to synthetic fillers, using your own tissue.

    Joint Injections

    Some patients inquire about the use of autologous biologic material in joints such as the knee, shoulder, and elbow.

    • Careful placement of processed, minimally manipulated tissue into the joint space
    • Use of image guidance or clinical landmarks when appropriate
    • A focus on supporting the local joint environment and function

    Patients commonly seek these options as part of a broader wellness or mobility-focused plan.

    IV Autologous Biologic Infusion

    Some patients request intravenous administration of autologous biologic material as part of a wellness-focused approach.

    • Preparing a portion of your processed tissue
    • Administering it intravenously under medical supervision
    • Monitoring throughout the procedure in a controlled clinical setting

    Patients interested in IV options are typically seeking a systemic, whole-body wellness approach.

    Important considerations

    • Joint injections are not FDA-approved for the treatment of arthritis, injury, or degenerative conditions.
    • IV use of autologous biologic material is not FDA-approved and is considered investigational.
    • No claims are made regarding pain relief, healing, or functional improvement.
    • It is not intended to treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
    • Scientific evidence supporting specific outcomes is still evolving.
    • Individual experiences may vary.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is stem cell banking?

    Stem cell banking involves collecting and storing your own fat-derived tissue for potential future use in aesthetic or regenerative applications.

    Why is fat used?

    Fat tissue contains naturally occurring regenerative cell populations and can be collected through a minimally invasive procedure.

    How are the cells stored?

    Tissue may be processed and cryopreserved in a controlled environment for long-term storage.

    Are the cells manipulated or expanded?

    No. The tissue is processed in accordance with minimal manipulation standards and is not cultured or expanded.

    Are joint injections FDA-approved?

    No. The use of autologous biologic material in joints is not FDA-approved for treating orthopedic conditions and is considered investigational.

    What about IV stem cell therapy?

    IV administration of autologous biologic material is not FDA-approved and is considered investigational.

    What is micronized fat transfer?

    A technique that refines your own fat for reinjection into areas such as the face to restore volume.

    Is there downtime?

    Most patients experience mild swelling or bruising that resolves within a few days.

    Who is a candidate?

    Candidates are individuals interested in natural, autologous options who understand the investigational nature of some applications.
