Dementia treatment with stem cell therapy

Stem cell therapy is based on the features that allow them to turn into any cell that an organism currently requires. As dementia is strongly related to dysfunction and a low number of functioning neurons (nervous system cells), stem cells might successfully replace dead and damaged neurons and attempt to renew their functions. Every patient's body has numerous stem cells inside the adipose tissues (represented mainly by body fat). So, medical practitioners stimulate the development of fat in the organism and perform liposuction. Next, they gather adipose stem cells and artificially increase their number in the lab. Finally, they get those stem cells back into the patient's body. The solution is typically injected into the bloodstream so the cells can be self-distributed to the right place. Also, the patient must have a few doctor appointments after therapy to ensure the treatment went well. Stem cell treatment helps slow the symptoms' progression and partially improves memory. Patients report initial improvement after a few weeks, but the final result can take up to several months.
