beauty of it's story. Although the science behind the platform is complex and the result of decades hard work and hundreds of millions of dollars in R&D spending, the story is simple and has mass appeal to a John Q. Public. It's a story that can be broken down into a simple 4 step process.
- Extract fat from the body.
- Extract a concentration of stem and regenerative cells from a portion of the the fat.
- Mix those "miracle"regenerative cells back into the fat.
- Insert the enriched fat back into the body to cure or treat multiple afflictions.
Its a story that generates excitement and amazement and rightfully so. It's also a story that plays well into the media.

As always, everyone is obligated to do your their own due diligence.
