An integrated medical platform that encompasses fat stem cell research and clinical practice was established by domestic regenerative medical and local medical experts.

The official launch of the 'Korea Fat Stem Cellology Society" involving prominent domestic regenerative medical figures.

The association announced on the 13th that it will announce the launch of the association through the inaugural general meeting of the Korean Local Stem Cellology Association held at Grand Mercure Ambassador Imperial Palace in Seoul on the 2nd and start full-scale activities. Kim Jong-un, chairman of the 365mc All New Gangnam headquarters, was elected as the first chairman of the day, and Cho Min-young, chairman of the Ttuk Clinic (Pengwon) was appointed as the vice chairman.




In addition, specialists in various clinical subjects such as family medicine, orthopedic surgery, rehabilitation medicine, general surgery, and plastic surgery, which actively use fat stem cells for regenerative treatment, will participate as executive directors to lay the foundation for the society.

First Chairman Kim Jong-un said in a greeting "The Korean Society of Fat Stem Cellology sees fat as a key resource for human regeneration and aims to become an academic venue where research results are shared from basic to clinical.""We intend to lead the standardization of adipose stem cell therapy and global academic development, with scientific evidence and safety as the top priority.""

In addition, Professor Heo Chang-hoon of the Department of Dermatology at Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, honorary professor Seo Hong-seok of Korea University Medical School (circulatory internal medicine specialist), as well as researchers at major university hospitals in Korea and experts in regenerative medicine will participate as advisors and advisory professors. On this day, the association officials discussed the clinical application of adipose stem cells and future research directions, and agreed that the launch of the association will be a turning point in the development of regenerative medicine in Korea.




Fat is reported to contain about 500 times more stem cells than bone marrow and 25,000 times more than cord blood. Thanks to the high cell yield, it is attracting attention as a realistic treatment alternative even in domestic medical environments where stem cell culture is legally limited. In addition, it has been reported that fat stem cells can be stored frozen for a long time through banking and can be stored for up to 23 years.

Chairman Kim said, `The Korean Association of Fat Stem Cells will promote the safety verification of fat stem cells, clinical guidelines, and technology standardization through regular academic conferences and research consultative bodies.' `We will continue our philosophy of maximizing human health recovery through the association and strengthen academic exchange and research support to contribute to the promotion of public health and medical development.'
