Research into stem cell therapies for urological diseases has been on going for past decade or more, as conventional therapies for said diseases have not been very effective. As of now, stem cell therapy has shown promising results for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED). Even in cases which do not respond well to ED medications, stem cell therapy has benefited the patient.

How does stem cell therapy benefit ED?

• Improves the blood inflow and outflow in the organ
• Grows microvasculature in organ, thereby promoting normal function
• Changes made, helps in better response to medication taken for ED

The Procedure

Stem cell treatments at TheSwissClinic are minimally invasive, most often a outpatient procedure so patient may go home the same day. Recovery times vary patient to patient, we strive to keep our patients downtime to the minimum. What happens at our clinic on the day of your procedure:

• Physician makes a tiny puncture through your skin either in abdomen or thighs, to harvest a small amount of fat.
• The fat is then processed in a Lipogems device using sterile saline solution. During this gentle process of micro-fragmentation, fat is washed, rinsed and resized into smaller clusters all while maintaining its natural healing phenomenon. This closed-loop system removes blood, fatty oils and inflammatory cells, leaving behind the concentrated fat (pericytes) which is therapeutic.
• Physician injects the resultant cells into the organ site, under ultrasound or 2D-fluoroscopic guidance. This ensures the stem cells properly reach where they are required.
