Our story
StemMedical® has spent years modifying and perfecting a commercially viable stem cell-enriched fat grafting solution for cosmetic treatments and now expanding into regenerative therapies and anti-inflammatory conditions.
Our founder, Dr. Stig-Frederik Trojahn Kølle, acknowledged the benefits of using a patient’s own fat for cosmetic treatments (e.g., breast augmentation, facial filling, wrinkle treatment and skin rejuvenation), as this material will always be biocompatible, natural appearing, non-immunogenic and versatile.
However, the transplanted fat graft is unpredictable and often has low survival. Thus, several procedures are needed to achieve an acceptable cosmetic outcome. Moreover, such transplants may not result in patient satisfaction and may not be a viable option for all people (e.g., thin people).
Inspired by scientific findings, StemMedical® was established in 2014 in Copenhagen, Denmark to begin modifying and perfecting a commercially viable stem cell-enriched fat grafting solution for various cosmetic treatments.
After targeted developmental work, we are now able to offer what we believe is a safe, natural, reliable, effective, and permanent fat grafting solution tailored to and around the individual patient. This treatment solution provides huge advantages over current artificial, synthetic, temporary, and unreliable cosmetic solutions.
We are proud to be pioneers of this new treatment regimen in modern plastic surgery and are committed to serving our patients and customers at the highest standards to always ensure satisfaction across the board while working hard to make the innovative treatments accessible to as many people as possible both geographically and economically.
