BMAC (Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate) in Tampa, FL
Concentrated Healing Signals From Your Own Bone Marrow
If wear or injury in your spine, a joint, or soft tissue is limiting your movement, you deserve options that go beyond covering up the pain. BMAC is a regenerative treatment Dr. Myrdalis Díaz-Ramírez may recommend after reviewing your case.
What it is
BMAC stands for Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate. It is a regenerative treatment made from a small sample of your own bone marrow. Bone marrow contains cells and natural signals that support repair and renewal. After the sample is collected, it is processed to concentrate those helpful cells and signals, then placed where your body needs support.
How it works
The area is numbed for your comfort.
A small sample of bone marrow is collected, often from the back of the pelvis, using imaging for guidance.
The sample is processed to concentrate the cells and natural healing signals.
The concentrate is injected into the affected disc, joint, tendon, ligament, or other structure, guided by imaging for accuracy.
Delivery options
Image-guided harvest and injection.
What it may help with
BMAC may be considered for spine structures, joints, tendons, ligaments, and other areas affected by wear or injury. It is designed to help reduce inflammation and support recovery. Because it uses your own tissue, it is an autologous treatment.
What to expect
BMAC is performed in the office. Your care team will explain aftercare and whether more than one session may help. Results vary by person, and not everyone is a candidate.
Who may be a candidate
BMAC may be an option for people looking for regenerative approaches to spine or joint concerns, especially those hoping to avoid or delay surgery. Candidacy is determined after a full evaluation.
