An Advanced
Regenerative
Medicine Approach
At Ortho Las Vegas, we believe in combining advanced regenerative medicine approaches with proven orthopedic care to help patients regain mobility and reduce pain. One of the most promising regenerative procedures we offer is BMAC, short for Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate. You might see it referred to as “cellular therapy”—or even called a type of stem cell therapy—but we want to clear up any confusion around those terms so you can make an informed decision about your health. If you’re in Las Vegas, Henderson, Summerlin, Paradise, or nearby communities, our team is here to answer your questions about BMAC, how it works, and whether it could be right for your specific joint or tendon problem.

What Is BMAC (Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate)?
BMAC stands for Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate
The treatment begins with a small sample of bone marrow—usually taken from the pelvic bone—collected under local or general anesthesia. That sample is then placed in a specialized centrifuge to separate and concentrate beneficial cells, which typically include adult stem cells, platelets, and growth factors.
Is This “Stem Cell Therapy”?
Yes and no. BMAC is one of the recognized medical methods for harnessing adult stem cells from your own body. However, there’s a world of difference between evidence-based BMAC and the unregulated “stem cell” treatments often advertised by fly-by-night clinics. At Ortho Las Vegas, we use cellular therapy strictly for appropriate indications and according to peer-reviewed research. Everything we do is also closely aligned with FDA guidelines, meaning you can trust that our protocols are both safe and ethical.

Benefits & Potential Outcomes
For many, PRP can be a big step forward compared to relying solely on medications, braces, or ongoing physical therapy. Results vary from person to person—factors like overall health, injury severity, and post-injection rehab efforts all play a role. But when combined with a comprehensive treatment plan, PRP has shown positive outcomes for many patients. We’ll discuss the results and research studies that match your particular issue to give you a sense of what benefits you might get from PRP treatment.
Some of the benefits our
patients report:
Natural Healing Approach
We use your own cells, which can be less invasive than surgical options.
Pain Relief & Inflammation Control
Over time, many patients notice improved function and reduced discomfort in the affected area.
Possible Delay of Major Surgery
BMAC may help certain patients put off joint replacements or more invasive procedures.
Backed by Peer-Reviewed Research
We’re not experimenting; we rely on clinical evidence to guide patient care.
