Cell Therapy: Unique Opportunities for Organism Regeneration
Currently, regenerative medicine is one of the most promising methods of treatment. There are more and more results of clinical studies that prove that the use of stem cells helps to achieve a pronounced therapeutic result, even in cases where standard therapies do not help.
Stem cells are called undifferentiated cells of our body. This means that they do not perform a specific function. For example, kidney cells remove excess fluid and metabolic products from the body, skin cells serve as a protective barrier, muscle cells contract, providing movement. However, stem cells also have the unique feature of being able to become any other type of cell that the body needs.
The human body uses stem cells to replace old or damaged cells. And this mechanism has great potential for the treatment of various diseases, recovery and rejuvenation of the body. Normally, stem cells are present in the bone marrow, adipose tissue, and blood, but as we age, their number decreases. However, now it is possible to multiply and grow stem cells in the laboratory, and then inject into the body to solve many health problems.
The scope of cell therapy is very extensive. With their help, diseases such as:
- diabetes;
- intervertebral hernia;
- joint diseases of various origins;
- multiple sclerosis;
- neurological diseases;
- cirrhosis of the liver;
- atherosclerosis;
- hypothyroidism;
- pancreatic necrosis;
- psoriasis.
This is not a complete list of health problems for which regenerative medicine has proven itself. In addition, stem cells are actively used as part of a rehabilitation program after serious illnesses, as well as for general rejuvenation of the body.
Ivan Badin has extensive experience in the use of cell therapy for the treatment of various diseases. Currently, it is possible to undergo cell therapy with Ivan Badin at the new Polyclinic Tara 70 in Belgrade. It is also possible to get a doctor’s consultation online.

PRP Therapy: A Modern Treatment for Orthopedic Diseases and Sports Injuries
The benefits of active physical activity are undeniable. However, often intense training is accompanied by damage to the ligaments, tendons, muscles and joints. Unfortunately, injuries are inevitable companions of people who are professionally involved in sports. Therefore, the search for new, effective methods of their treatment and subsequent rehabilitation of patients is of great importance.
In recent years, PRP therapy (platelet-rich plasma treatment) has been actively used in sports medicine. Its effectiveness has already been evaluated by such famous athletes as Tiger Woods, baseball player Alex Rodriguez, football player Hines Ward, basketball player Brandon Roy, sprinter Donovan Bailey and others.
Recent studies have proven that PRP therapy can be effective in the rehabilitation of patients after:
- lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow);
- plantar fasciitis;
- patellar tendinosis;
- tendinitis/tendinosis of the Achilles tendon, biceps, triceps, quadriceps, hamstring, rotator cuff;
- partial rupture of the rotator cuff of the shoulder joint;
- trochanteric bursitis;
- sprains, pain in the meniscus;
- damage to the anterior cruciate ligament.
In the past, physicians’ attention was focused on the mechanical effects of damage and healing. It was impossible to influence the biological process of tissue regeneration. However, now there are technologies that help strengthen it and direct it in the right direction.
According to doctors, PRP therapy is especially effective in restoring ligaments and tendons. There are few blood vessels near these tissues, so healing is very slow. The introduction of platelet-rich plasma into the problem area makes it possible to significantly accelerate this process (in some cases, the recovery time is reduced by 50%).
An additional advantage of this technique is its safety. Since the patient’s own blood is used to make the drug, the likelihood of an allergic reaction is reduced to zero. Reducing the rehabilitation period allows the patient to quickly return to a full life. Also, for some injuries, PRP therapy can replace unsafe steroid injections or avoid surgery.
