Prolotherapy in Korea

Smooth out wrinkles and reduce pain with stem cell injections

What are prolotherapy injections?

Prolotherapy is a compound word of proliferation and therapy, and is a treatment method called ‘proliferation therapy’ rather than the name of a specific drug or injection.

This is an injection therapy used for chronic musculoskeletal diseases of ligaments connecting bones or tendons connecting bones and muscles. It is a treatment method that activates the body’s self-healing ability by artificially inducing an inflammatory response in the painful area.

Recently, a treatment combining ‘prolotherapy’, which involves injecting high concentrations of glucose into painful areas such as the shoulders, waist, and knees, and ‘stem cell injection’ has become popular among middle-aged and older people.

The core of this collaboration is to strengthen the painful area with prolotherapy and maximize the regenerative effect by injecting stem cells obtained from one’s own tissue.

The effects of prolotherapy injections

Prolotherapy is not just a temporary pain relief treatment, but a fundamental treatment that regenerates ligaments and strengthens weakened tissues. The number of prolotherapy injections may vary from patient to patient, and there are few side effects because the ingredients used are safe for the human body. However, since it strengthens the ligaments and artificially regenerates the damaged area, some pain or swelling may occur after the procedure.

  1. No anesthesia or incisions
  2. 1:1 intensive care
  3. Almost no side effects
  4. Short treatment time and quick return to daily life
Supply of oxygen and nutrients for new blood vessel creation and regeneration activation

Stem cells circulate through our bodies, concentrating on areas that need regeneration and creating new blood vessels in areas where blood supply is lacking.

Effects applied throughout the body through blood vessels

Stem cells travel through blood vessels to find damaged areas and promote tissue repair.

Once the musculoskeletal system is damaged, it takes a long time to fully recover and causes a lot of inconvenience in daily life.
The treatment areas for prolotherapy injections, which are effective in relieving chronic musculoskeletal pain, are diverse, including areas with tendons and ligaments, such as the neck, shoulders, elbows, waist, wrists, knees, and ankles. In addition, since it is a treatment method that does not require anesthesia or incisions, the treatment process is relatively simple.

Collaboration of ‘Prolotherapy + Intravenous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Injection’

Stem cells have the ability to differentiate into various types of cells that make up the body, so they can heal or regenerate damaged cells. In particular, intravenous injections of concentrated stem cells extracted from the blood are a treatment with excellent anti-aging effects.

Since it uses concentrated autologous stem cells, it can be administered on the same day, and it is safe as there is no possibility of inflammation or cell deformation. These stem cell intravenous injections visit damaged areas or areas with severe inflammation in our body, reduce inflammation in blood vessels, and improve blood flow, blood pressure, heart disease, and immune cell function.

Prolotherapy is a non-surgical treatment that stimulates damaged tissues such as ligaments, tendons, and joints to promote regeneration and healing.

It can be effective for a variety of musculoskeletal conditions, including chronic joint pain, ligament or tendon damage, tennis elbow, osteoarthritis, disc disease, plantar fasciitis, and knee pain.
