Regenerative

regenerative medicine is a branch of medicine which includes targeted medical procedures designed to accelerate and assist in the body’s own natural healing processes.

By definition, regenerative means “able to or tending to regenerate – to regrow or be renewed or restored, especially after being damaged or lost.” Therefore, regenerative medicine is a branch of medicine which includes targeted medical procedures designed to accelerate and assist in the body’s own natural healing processes. This includes the regrowth and repairing of damaged cells and tissues. Furthermore, biologic therapy is a medically advanced treatment that is designed to harness the potential of the cells’ biology and natural healing functions to restore and repair tissue damage and functionality. Dr. Barrow offers a variety of options within regenerative medicine in Houston at Sole Aesthetic.

First, platelet rich plasma (PRP), which is a treatment that includes utilizing the patient’s own blood in order to capture the cells responsible for healing and using their natural healing process in a high concentration. The PRP procedure involves taking the patient’s blood (usually, the approximately 60 mL of blood is drawn from the patient for this), putting it in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich cells (this usually spins down to about 6-8 mL), and then re-injecting the isolated cells back into the treatment site.First, platelet rich plasma (PRP), which is a treatment that includes utilizing the patient’s own blood in order to capture the cells responsible for healing and using their natural healing process in a high concentration.

Podiatric

No matter what your specific needs are, Sole Aesthetic provides patients with the most cutting-edge regenerative, aesthetic, and Podiatric Medicine and Surgery in Houston.

 

At Sole Aesthetic, Dr. Barrow provides patients with an extensive assortment of treatment options, giving patients the top care in Podiatric Medicine and Surgery in Houston. One of the most popular, widely sought-after treatments is dermal fillers. Dermal fillers are ideal for patients who are looking for a way to restore the cushion and comfort to their feet and heels as a result of collagen loss that naturally occurs as we age. Dermal fillers are injected into atrophied areas which are deprived of the necessary fat tissue that once provided cushion and optimal comfort levels.

There are two main types of dermal fillers which Dr. Barrow uses for Podiatric Medicine and Surgery in Houston. First, polylactic acid, which is a medically advanced filler that stimulates the growth of collagen. However, polylactic acid goes beyond the dermal layer, penetrating deeper layers of tissue to assist in restoring volume over time. This is ideal in treating not only cushion quality, but also strengthening the tissue.

Additionally, Sole Aesthetic provides targeted treatment for a variety of conditions, such as bunions, neuromas, hammertoes, nail disorders, athlete’s foot, ingrown nails, various athletic injuries, and more.
