Double stem cell treatment may help with aging skin issues. Wrinkles and lines develop when collagen production decreases. The therapy tries boosting collagen levels to smooth texture.

Can stem cells help with brain damage after heart failure? What is the cost?
Hello, my daughter, her heart stopped and she lost consciousness 5 months ago. There was a rope around his neck, but not like hanging, he was leaning against the closet with his feet on the floor. The hospital heart was started in 12-5 minutes. There is brain damage. He now has a trachestomy and a peg, he is breathing, he is moving, his eyes are open. When he sleeps, his body is very comfortable, there is no contraction etc. But there are cramps in the feet and hands at certain times of the day. His eyes are open and there are reactions in his body. Swallowing comes slowly. Is it suitable for stem cells and how much does it cost?
Dr. Pradeep Mahajan
Urologist
Answered on 24th Feb '24
It seems that she had hypoxia, which means that there is not enough oxygen to her brain and she has to have a tracheostomy and a peg for feeding now. I cannot advise the treatment for your daughter unless I first endeavor to examine her. I encourage you to see a neurologist who is an expert in brain injuries; this specialist will be in the best position to offer the best examination and rehabilitation plan for your daughter. Stem cell therapy may be a good option but it will have to be prescribed by a doctor who will assess the patient comprehensively. The price of the treatment may depend on the type of case, as well as on the treatment plan that was created.
