Dr. Gustav Lo, MD Explains Regenerative Medicine 01 TELL US ABOUT REGENCEN. We’ve been offering regenerative medicine for years but ultimately, Courtney wanted to offer a dedicated space and team for people to come to even if they didn’t want aesthetic treatments. We wanted to be ahead of the curve, and regenerative medicine is growing exponentially. I did primary care for 30 years and miss it, so it’s exciting to be able to treat real health problems without drugs and without surgery. Not everyone wants aesthetic services – they do want to feel better and live better though! That’s the reason for RegenCen. 02 WHAT EXACTLY IS REGENERATIVE MEDICINE? This could go in a hundred directions, but regenerative medicine is healing your body by producing new cells, or getting the old ones to behave like they’re young again. It’s not new by any means – researchers and innovative physicians have been exploring treatments for decades. But as the results from regenerative therapies get better, treatment options for more and more aging issues expand. And with my career in primary care, we’re able to confidently assess patients and decide who is a good candidate and who is not. 03 YOU OFFER QUITE A RANGE OF SERVICES. TELL US ABOUT THAT. Right? It probably seems a little strange to some that we offer treatments for vaginal rejuvenation, bladder control, arthritis, thinning hair, hormone replacement for men and women, DR. GUSTAV LO, MD | During his 30-year career as a Primary Care Physician, Dr. Lo used regenerative medicine primarily in orthopedic conditions, then later in aesthetic medicine as Medical Director at Cosmetic Skin & Laser Center. With the addition of RegenCen, we merge both specialities into a treatment center that helps you turn back the clock on aging after 40. Dr. Lo earned his MD from Michigan State University and his undergraduate degree from the University of Michigan. As regenerative medicine continues to advance, Dr. Lo and his team are dedicated to ongoing education and bringing exciting, research-based and medically proven treatments to patients throughout Northern Michigan and Southwest Florida who want to feel and look better at every stage of life.
“Aging happens slowly. Our cells gradually lose function over time. Joints are a great example: almost everyone over 40 has joint pain or stiffness somewhere, but only after decades of worsening are you ready for joint replacement. Hair loss, erection function, vaginal function, and bladder control generally follow that same slow path. But you don’t have to wait for worse.” – Dr. Gustav Lo, MD and a few others under one roof – the connection is that 07 WHAT IS W they’re all really common, and they respond really well to PRF? r tissue regeneration.

As the probe is moved back and forth AFTER SMARTLIPO AFTER BODYTITE gently under the skin, radiofrequency energy passes between the inside and the outside probes, heating both skin and fat to a target temperature. That higher temperature inside breaks down the structure of the fatty material so it can be removed with gentle suction, while the outside temperature is optimized for skin tightening. Heating the tissue throughout with radiofrequency energy is the game- changer – skin contracts and tightens up to 40%! The ideal BodyTite patient is someone with smaller problem areas like that tummy pooch that won’t go away post-baby, or that annoying heaviness of the upper arms, bra bulges, and of course chafing inner thighs. The procedure is quick, and the recovery is very short – a few days of ice and compression, and then you just wait for the results. They get better and better over the next few weeks and months.

“Women are way ahead of men TIMELESS in self-care: treatments are an investment in quality of life, whereas “investment” to a mmananmmeaenasnas car or boat.” – Dr. Gustav L–oD, Mr. DGustav Lo, MD 41 WHAT DO MEN WANT BETTER ERECTIONS PAIN-FREE JOINTS REGROW HAIR E² Shot The Mobility Shhoott Hair Booster Shhoott Men are often surprised to learn that ractically anyone over may find From male pattern baldness to declining erection function is universal, their joints (especially the knees, hips, age-related hair thinning, you can and starts in the 20s.

The Mobility Shot Hair restoration is among the most relationships with sex partners, and uses all-natural PRF from your own well studied and proven regenerative how “old” or how “healthy” they feel blood cells to restore joint and tendon treatments using platelet-rich plasma overall.

The E² shot is one of the most well studied uses of increases in number of hairs of delivers better, larger erections and PRF.

Translation: more hair, thicker treatments are recommended to of all, no steroid side effects! hair, and healthier hair after a series of maintain improvement. three injections over three months.
ALLEVIATE ARTHRITIS Medical studies praise the power of PRF for arthritis for people over 40. Here’s what you should know. ALLEVIATE ARTHRITIS If you have arthritis, you’ve PRF can be used to probably heard about cortisone treat any painful joint. shots, where steroids are injected into arthritic joints to reduce n t on n oe function. “They work great, for a TIMELESS42 while,” says Dr. Gustav Lo, MD, RegenCen’s Medical Director. Steroid injections are considered a short-term solution, reducing n t on n n fo fe weeks to a few months. Steroids can also cause problems if they are used repeatedly, actually speeding up degeneration of the joints. Pain-free living ess well known but becoming more common is platelet-rich fibrin F treatment. ecent research shows PRF injections alleviate arthritis pain as well as steroid injections, but in a much different way that actually rejuvenates the cartilage and other joint tissues, rather than causing further breakdown. The results also last a lot longer, often a full year or more. The concept is simple: the injected PRF attracts stem cells and growth factors, triggering new cartilage and connective tissue growth. This in turn rebuilds joint surfaces and cushioning in worn-out joints. After a series of 3 injections a month apart, inflammation and pain are reduced and sometimes eliminated altogether. Sound kind of like stem cell treatments that were all the rage a few years ago? They are similar in some ways (they both stimulate new tissue growth and regeneration), but stem cell therapy is much more complex and costly, requiring bone marrow or liposuction as a source (instead of a simple blood draw) and half a day in a procedure room. hat compares to a simple blood draw and minutes in-office for PRF. With recent research showing equivalent results with PRF, it’s no wonder stem cell treatment is rapidly being replaced.
What’s the treatment process like? It’s simple, quick, and (almost) painless. We isolate PRF from patients’ own blood in just 10 minutes. From start to finish, the whole visit takes about half an hour, and requires ust two needle pokes one for the blood draw, and one for the injection. Are there any downsides? In terms of the treatment itself, very few. Most patients have mild aching for a few days after the injection, but allergic reactions are impossible since the injection only contains your own blood products. One negative for some is the lack of insurance coverage neither commercial insurers nor Medicare pay for PRF treatments despite decades of research documenting their effectiveness. t egen en, we have the benefit of years of experience and hundreds of orthopedic patient treatments with PRF. “Of all the treatments I’ve performed on patients with injured or arthritic joints, PRF has the best success rate,” says Dr. Lo. “It’s great to see someone walk in a month later with no limp and a big grin on their face.” “An annual injection of PRF eliminates my knee pain.”
