Stem Cell Therapy
Do you have dark undereye circles that won’t go away, no matter how much sleep you get? Have you noticed wrinkles, fine lines, or skin laxity starting to appear? If that’s the case, you may be a good candidate for skin rejuvenation with stem cell therapy, a unique and innovative treatment now available at The Langdon Center in Guilford, CT.
At The Langdon Center, we offer a cutting-edge approach to stem cell therapy for the face. This revolutionary non-surgical treatment uses your body’s own stem cells to naturally stimulate collagen production and promote skin regeneration, giving you a youthful, radiant glow.
What is Stem Cell Therapy for Facial Rejuvenation?
Stem cell skin rejuvenation is an injectable treatment that is a highly effective, minimally invasive procedure that uses stem cells derived from your fat tissue or skin to rejuvenate and repair damaged skin cells. The treatment works by replenishing fibroblast cells, which are responsible for collagen production, thereby reversing the signs of aging, such as fine lines, wrinkles, and skin laxity​.
Stem cells are the foundational cells within your body that generate all the different types of cells you need, from blood cells to brain cells. Since stem cells generate healthy new cells, they are an essential part of your body’s reparative and restorative abilities.
With stem cell therapy, we use this impressive regenerative ability to rejuvenate your skin. Your fat is rich in stem cells. A stem cell treatment involves removing small amounts of fat to isolate the stem cells and injecting them into the face to promote skin healing.
Stem cell rejuvenation therapy is an excellent choice for natural skin rejuvenation using your body’s healing process. It’s a convenient injectable treatment that can fit into a busy schedule since there’s minimal recovery.

Skin Aging Treatment
Skin aging has no treatment other than stem cell therapy. Today, commonly preferred procedures such as fillers and botox are used to eliminate the effects of skin aging rather than treatment. Likewise, various skin treatments, devices, vitamins, skincare and, in more advanced cases, facelift surgeries are carried out to alleviate the effects of aging.
How Does Skin Aging Occur?
From the age of 28-30, stem cells start decreasing by an average of 2% per year, and the skin begins to age within this process, leading to a gradual decline in skin elasticity, collagen production, and overall skin vitality. This results in visible signs of aging, such as wrinkles and sagging. Stem cell therapy replenishes lost stem cells, effectively turning back the clock on your skin by several years​.
Fibroblast cells diminish over time in the skin. First, wrinkles between the eyebrows and eye edge, called crow’s feet, and sagging start to appear. The person can see the lines caused by his/her gestures in time. With all these symptoms, sagging of the skin begins to appear as well.
What is the science behind stem cell therapy?
Stem cells can transform into various cell types, including fibroblasts (which produce collagen), keratinocytes (skin cells), and adipocytes (fat cells). Adipose stem cells (ASCs), typically harvested from areas like the abdomen, thighs, and flanks, are processed into different forms, such as macro fat, micro fat, and nano fat. After purification, these stem cells are reintroduced into targeted areas, such as the face and neck, to promote regeneration and enhance skin quality.
How Does a Stem Cell Therapy Procedure Work?
Stem cell therapy for skin rejuvenation is a three-step process: fat removal, processing, and injection into the treatment area. The treatment typically takes a couple of hours to perform. If needed, we’ll apply a local anesthetic to ensure your comfort.
First, Dr. Langdon will use gentle liposuction to remove about 20 CCs of fat from your abdomen, thighs, or flanks. This fat will then be processed to separate out the stem cells, which are placed into a special injection tool. From there, Dr. Langdon uses the tool to inject the stem cells into facial areas where rejuvenation is needed.
What is Recovery Like From Stem Cell Skin Rejuvenation?
The injection process of stem cell skin rejuvenation is a simple, non-surgical treatment and requires little to no recovery. You may have minor bruising and redness at the injection sites, which should fade within a few days.
However, patients may experience swelling and soreness at the donor sites where the fat was removed. Thanks to Dr. Langdon’s gentle technique, these side effects should be minimal and subside quickly. Most people can return to their normal activities within a day or two after the procedure.
What Results Can I Expect From Stem Cell Therapy?
Patients will see a noticeable difference in how their skin looks, with significant improvement in the texture and tone of facial skin. You can expect to look more refreshed and rejuvenated, especially if the treatment is used in the undereye region.
The stem cells help your body replace damaged, aged collagen and elastin with healthy new fibers, improving skin structure and producing a smoother, brighter complexion. Stem cell therapy results develop gradually over several weeks.
Keep in mind that if you’re using stem cell skin rejuvenation to treat dark circles, these areas may appear darker before they get lighter. That’s because stem cells inhibit melanin in order to clear dark circles away.
Am I a Candidate for Stem Cell Therapy?
You’re a good candidate for stem cell skin rejuvenation if you’ve noticed dark circles, under-eye hollows, or dull facial skin. Stem cell therapy is a good choice for people who want comprehensive, long-term results with a convenient, minimally invasive treatment. During a detailed consultation, Dr. Langdon will evaluate your skin and goals to help you determine if this is the best treatment for you.
