Lipogems
Lipogems is an advanced Non-Surgical Orthopaedic treatment that uses your own fat tissue to promote healing and repair in damaged or inflamed areas of the body. Dr. Ralph Rogers uses this minimally invasive procedure to treat various orthopaedic conditions, providing a natural alternative to surgery.
What is it?
Lipogems is a cutting-edge therapy that involves harvesting a small amount of fat from your body, processing it to concentrate recovery of the cells, and injecting it into the affected area. This process helps to reduce inflammation, promote healing, and improve tissue function.
A clinic appointment for Lipogems includes a consultation, fat harvesting, processing of the fat to prepare the Lipogems solution, and precise injection into the targeted area. Dr. Rogers ensures accuracy and effectiveness in administering this innovative treatment.
