I took my Mother in for stem cell and PRP treatment. Staff was excellent and helpful. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for this type of treatment.
What Is Adipose Stem Cell Therapy?
Adipose (fat-derived) stem cell therapy involves collecting a small sample of your own fat tissue, isolating the regenerative mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) within, and injecting them directly into damaged or degenerated tissue.
Fat-derived MSCs are:
- Abundant and potent–containing 500-1,000 times more regenerative cells than bone marrow
- Autologous–meaning they come from your own body, reducing the risk of rejection
- Highly anti-inflammatory–ideal for arthritis, tendon damage, and chronic joint conditions
This procedure is performed entirely in-office using sterile, FDA-cleared protocols. Dr. Nourparvar personally performs both the mini-liposuction and the ultrasound-guided injections to ensure the highest standards of safety and precision.
Who Can Benefit from Fat-Derived Stem Cell Therapy?
This therapy is ideal for patients who:
- Want to avoid joint replacement surgery
- Suffer from osteoarthritis in knees, hips, or shoulders
- Have rotator cuff tears, meniscal injuries, or tendonitis
- Experience chronic inflammation or cartilage loss
- Have not responded to corticosteroids or physical therapy
Treatments may be enhanced with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), PPP (Platelet-Poor Plasma), or shockwave therapy (ESWT) for more comprehensive healing.

What to Expect from Your Treatment
- Consultation & Imaging Review: A comprehensive exam and review of your imaging (X-rays, MRIs) with Dr. Nourparvar helps determine your eligibility.
- In-Office Fat Harvest: A small amount of fat is collected under local anesthesia, usually from the abdomen or flank.
- Stem Cell Isolation: The fat tissue is processed immediately to isolate and concentrate MSCs following FDA-cleared methods.
- Ultrasound-Guided Injection: Your stem cells are precisely injected into the treatment area using real-time imaging.
- Recovery & Support: Most patients resume light activities within 24-72 hours. We also guide you through recovery nutrition and rehab.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Fat tissue provides far more MSCs than bone marrow and is collected with less discomfort and risk.
-
No. It’s done under local anesthesia and is generally described as no more uncomfortable than a dental procedure.
-
Most patients see improvement within 4-6 weeks, with continued regeneration over 3-6 months.
-
Very few. Since your own tissue is used, rejection isn’t a concern. Mild bruising or swelling may occur but resolves quickly.
-
It is not typically covered, but FSA/HSA accounts are often eligible. We provide full documentation for reimbursement.
-
If you have joint pain, soft tissue injury, or cartilage loss and want to avoid surgery, you may be a strong candidate.
-
Unlike many “stem cell” centers, all procedures here are performed by a board-certified physician using real diagnostic evaluations, FDA-compliant protocols, and full follow-up care.
