Lipogems Awarded for Breakthrough Technology

By: Lipogems
NORCROSS, Ga. - Aug. 11, 2016 - PRLog -- Lipogems, a global leader in regenerative medicine, has been named a recipient of Orthopedics This Week's "Best New Sports Medicine Technology of 2016" Award.

Judged by a panel of five highly acclaimed surgeons, this annual award acknowledges the most effective healthcare innovations for treating injured athletes. With over 40 products submitted for recognition, Lipogems was the only technology rewarded in the regenerative category.

The award was given to a company for providing a creative and innovative solution that is cost-effective, has long-term significance, and the potential to improve the standard of care in sports medicine by providing an adjunct or alternative to surgical intervention.

"What Dr. Tremolada (inventor and President, Lipogems International S.p.A.) has designed is truly ingenious. The construction of the apparatus takes advantage of the characteristics of adipose tissue and cleverly washes away all of the debris while concentrating the important components. This should be a highly successful therapeutic product," said Dr. Arnold Caplan, Professor of Biology and Director of the Skeletal Research Center at Case Western Reserve University.

The Lipogems® system, which has been FDA cleared for indications in orthopedic surgery, is a compliant option that employs:

• Point-of-care harvesting of a patient's own adipose tissue

• Closed-loop device for mechanical processing

• Subsequent lipofilling intended for the support and repair of soft tissue defects associated with sports injuries.
