Intravenous Stem Cell Therapy
Intravenous Stem Cell Therapy might be new to the United States and MetroMD but this treatment has been in use for over a decade. Specifically in countries like Panama, however thanks to the Right To Try bill patients now have access to these treatments in America.
This treatment involves using embryonic stem cells that are grown from cells found in an embryo, these stem cells are harvested from umbilical cord banks that have received donated umbilical cords. These stem cells are then frozen for patients and administered intravenously.
The procedure itself is virtually painless besides the actual injection site of the IV there is no pain. The treatment can be done in a little under an hour as it’s similar to receiving any IV bag. This can be an effective treatment for any inflammation-based disease.
Stem Cell Therapy in hand with diet and lifestyle changes can be a strong aid in fighting certain chronic diseases and helping improve your quality of life. To learn more visit our clinic and set up a consultation with one of our doctors. You can email us at info@metromd.net or call us at 323-285-5300.

Beverly Hills Stem Cell Therapy
Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that can become specialized cells. And they can replicate rapidly. For example, a stem cell injected into your body could become cartilage, bone, collagen, or some other tissue. There are two major classes of stem cells, embryonic stem cells, and adult stem cells. Adult stem cells exist throughout the body. They are found inside of different types of tissue. For example, adult stem cells have been found in the brain, bone marrow, blood, blood vessels, adipose tissue, skeletal muscles, skin, and the liver. Stem cells play a huge part in the body’s healing process. Stem cell therapies that introduce new stem cells to a particular site (e.g., injecting your own stem cells into your knee to help regrow cartilage) shows tremendous promise. Stem cell therapy has great potential because your stem cells can be guided to diseased or damaged tissues in your body. Adult stem cells are found in small numbers in most of your tissues, such as your bone marrow or fat. To learn more about Stem Cells and the treatments we can offer with them contact us at 323-285-5300 or info@metromd.net

An elbow injury can permanently damage your life. Lifting materials, washing dishes, and participating in sports all feel impossible with a weak elbow. There are numerous medical procedures for your elbow pain but most of these procedures are slow and do not lead to a full recovery. One procedure that offers new hope is stem cell therapy.
Stem cell therapy is relatively new, but it is a simple procedure. The therapy takes advantage of your bodies on resources to fix your elbow injuries. The doctors take a syringe and extract material from your bone marrow. This bone marrow material contains material, but also contains valuable stem cells. After extracting the material, the material must go in a centrifuge. The centrifuge purifies the stem cells to optimize their healing ability. After a few days, the stem cells are ready. Doctors then inject the stem cells into your elbow, and the recovery can begin.
Stem cell therapy is relatively new, but it has an incredible success rate. Patients typically recover from the injuries with months, and they return to the lifestyle they once enjoyed. Sports, work, and daily life is all possible after this procedure. The results make choosing stem cell therapy the clear choice.
Suffering from an elbow injury is incredibly frustrating, but if you choose the right therapies, then your body can quickly recover from the injury. For more information on this treatment give us a call at 323-285-5300 or visit our Stem Cell Therapy Website.

Using Stem Cells to Remove Acne Scars!
At MetroMD we make use of stem cells for treating the condition of acne scarring. Many of our patients come to us with severe scarring from acne. This is acne they had when they were teenagers and may now have lived with for two or three decades.
We use a very important technique of breaking the skin with a CO2 laser. We use a laser which allows portals of entry, very microscopic tiny holes in the skin, so that the stem cells may migrate down through those portals and restore the structure.
What the stem cell does, once it has an access through the skin, the dermis, it will migrate down through these “portals”, we call them, and then spread out along the base of the dermis, and at the base of the floor of these acne scars.
With time we see a building up of tissue; we see improvements. What we like to do is use a three-step process where we exfoliate the skin, shear off the top layers of skin, and then apply the stem cells, and then repeat the process in six to eight weeks. This is repeated for a total of three passes with the laser. It’s very effective; we see changes very rapidly.
The most important thing is that patients should regard this as a three-step process, and not expect to have everything done following the first treatment. We have a very great success rate. We are very pleased with what we’re seeing, and the stem cells represent a great step forward in the treatment of acne scars. If you have questions regarding acne scarring and the use of stem cells, call us at 323-285-5300.

The Right to Try Bill and Stem Cell Therapy!
This year in 2018 the “Right to Try Bill” was passed. This bill allows patients in the US to seek and obtain non-FDA approved treatment here on US territory. This means a door has been opened for stem cell therapy. Stem cell therapy can now be given to a patient with chronic conditions in the US under this Bill but have to follow the following guidelines.
Stem cell treatments that are not FDA approved can now be administered. However, the patient must be shown and told these procedures are not approved. Many areas of stem cell therapy are not approved. Even if a patient is receiving these under the bill we do not know the true efficacy of the treatment. For instance today in 2018 we do not know if stem cell therapy
will treat MS. However, we do no it is a safe treatment and by far the potential benefit outweighs the risk.
This bill will allow patients with COPD, MS, Alzheimer’s, and other degenerative diseases access to stem cell therapy here on US soil. They can now obtain the care under US physicians guidance and help achieve maximum care.
At our state of the art facility, MetroMD has provided over 1000 cell-based cases to date. The quality and efficacy of these treatments is always the highest priority of MetroMD. We always aim to give our patients the best treatments available and our goal is to improve their quality of life.

Thinning hair or balding is an issue millions of Americans deal with. A variety of factors effect this from stress, environment to genetics it’s impossible to determine the exact cause. However, it is possible to treat balding or alopecia with stem cells.
When stem cells are activated in the hair follicles they have shown to regenerate growth. Hair follicles treated with stem cells have shown to become reactivated during a new hair cycle. Typically when hair follicles fail to activate a person begins to suffer from balding or hair loss.
This treatment is an effective way of reactivating the hair follicles and combating hair loss. At MetroMD we offer this treatment via injections and would have you come in for a consult prior to beginning treatment to ensure you’re a good candidate. Other treatments that help with hair growth include PRP or platelet-rich plasma which is found in your own blood.
We can combine these treatments in order to see the best results. You can contact us for a consult or email us with any questions at info@metromd.net

Hip and Ankle Stem Cell Therapy for Osteoarthritis (OA)
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a progressive, debilitating disorder that affects a large number of the elderly and middle-aged population. In 2012, approximately 8 million people in the United Kingdom and 27 million in the United States were affected by OA. Although current treatment strategies may decrease symptoms and improve function, they do not affect the continued
Stem Cell Therapy for Orthopedic Injuries
As society becomes more informed about the chronic and acute healing process of musculoskeletal tissue injuries, the use of biological treatments becomes more widely accepted. One of these biological treatments, called stem cell therapy, is a new and promising treatment that has been found to reduce pain and improve mobility in patients with orthopedic conditions like arthritis without the need for surgery.
What is Stem Cell Therapy?
Stem cell therapy is the treatment of illnesses using naturally occurring cells in the body that have the capability to differentiate (turn into different cell types) and promote tissue regeneration. One specific variety of stem cells used in orthopedic stem cell treatments is Mesenchymal, which can produce ligament, bone, cartilage, and tendon tissue. These cells emit chemicals (cytokines and growth factors) that decrease inflammation, inhibit tissue breakdown, and trigger cell repair.
Orthopedic Conditions Treatable with Stem Cell Therapy
Stem cell therapy has successfully been used to treat many injuries and diseases. Orthopedic conditions that have been treated with stem cell therapy include acute and chronic injuries of the muscle, tendon, cartilage, bone, and ligament. A few specific conditions that are candidates for stem cell therapy include:
- Tendon Injuries like partial tears of the shoulder’s rotator cuff
- Back pain caused by degenerative discs and facet joint
- Arthritis of joints (like the hip, elbow, and knee) and osteoarthritis
Before you are considered a candidate for stem cell therapy, you will have to undergo an orthopedic evaluation, which often includes getting an x-ray and MRI scan. If you are healthy, you will most likely not need any other special laboratory testing.
