How is stem cell treatment prepared?

Using state-of-the-art technology, an animal’s own stem cells can be isolated and prepared from a small sample of his/her fatty tissue taken from under the skin. Your vet will perform a simple surgery to remove some fat (about one tablespoonful) and to take a blood sample from your pet or your horse.

In a specialised, authorised laboratory your pet’s stem cells will be cultured and nurtured to ensure they are actively growing and healthy – and when they reach their peak, expert stem cell scientists can carefully retrieve these cells and prepare a tailor-made therapy especially for your pet. This will be injected into the affected joints or other areas under the supervision of your vet.
