This video features a 2-month post-procedure check-in shared by Dr. Don Buford at Texas Orthobiologics, focusing on a patient who used cellular therapy as a non-surgical solution after being told she needed a knee replacement.
Key Highlights:
- The Treatment: The patient underwent a comprehensive Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC) "stem cell" procedure. Dr. Buford performed both intra-articular (into the joint space) and intraosseous (directly into the bone) injections to treat her advanced knee condition.
- Results at 2 Months:
- Pain Reduction & Mobility: The patient reports that she is doing "tons better" and is now able to walk up and down stairs completely pain-free.
- Overall Improvement: She estimates that her knee is already at least 60% better compared to its condition before the procedure.
- Expected Progression: Dr. Buford notes that a 60% improvement at just two months is an excellent milestone, as the therapeutic benefits of a BMAC injection typically continue to build and improve through the three-to-four-month mark.
