Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC) Therapy in Delray Beach: A Regenerative Breakthrough in Orthopedic Care

If chronic joint pain, limited mobility, or sports injuries are interfering with your life, surgery isn’t your only path forward. At Tyrance Orthopedics & Sports Medicine in Delray Beach, we specialize in regenerative orthopedic therapies that support your body’s natural ability to heal. One of the most promising and advanced techniques we offer is Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC) therapy—a treatment often referred to as a “stem cell-based approach”—designed to help repair damaged tissue, reduce inflammation, and restore joint function.

BMAC (Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate) is a regenerative procedure that uses a concentrated sample of your own bone marrow. This sample contains a rich mix of cells, including hematopoietic cells, platelets, growth factors, and other components that support the healing and recovery process.

While BMAC is sometimes informally associated with “stem cell therapy,” it is important to understand that BMAC is not a stem cell product, drug, or FDA-approved treatment for specific diseases. Instead, it is a minimally manipulated autologous cell procedure that is used within the scope of orthopedic medicine to support natural tissue repair.

At Tyrance Orthopedics & Sports Medicine, BMAC therapy is performed as an outpatient procedure with the following steps:

1. Evaluation & Diagnosis
   A thorough exam and imaging (such as MRI or ultrasound) help determine if you’re a good candidate for BMAC therapy.
2. Bone Marrow Collection
   A small volume of bone marrow is collected from the iliac crest (pelvic bone) using local anesthesia.
3. Processing
   The sample is placed in a sterile centrifuge to concentrate the beneficial components into BMAC.
4. Guided Injection
   Using real-time imaging, the BMAC is carefully injected into the area of concern, such as a joint, tendon, or ligament.
5. Recovery
   Patients usually resume light activity shortly after treatment and continue to see improvements over several weeks as healing progresses.

BMAC is used in orthopedic care to support the healing of a variety of musculoskeletal issues, including:

• Knee osteoarthritis and chronic knee pain
• Hip joint degeneration
• Shoulder injuries, including rotator cuff strain
• Tendonitis in the elbow (tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow)
• Chronic low back pain
• Ligament and tendon injuries
• Early-stage cartilage damage

Patients in Delray Beach choose BMAC for several key reasons:

• Minimally Invasive: No incisions or lengthy recovery times
• Uses Your Own Cells: Reduces the risk of rejection or immune response
• Supports Healing Naturally: Helps promote repair rather than mask symptoms
• Integrates with Physical Therapy: Can be part of a larger recovery plan tailored to your needs

BMAC vs Traditional Orthopedic Treatments

Is BMAC therapy FDA-approved?
BMAC is a same-day procedure using your own cells and is considered a minimally manipulated autologous treatment. It is not FDA-approved as a drug or biologic product for any specific indication but is used within the orthopedic scope under current regulations.

Does BMAC therapy involve actual stem cells?
While bone marrow contains a small population of mesenchymal cells, BMAC is not a purified stem cell product. It includes a range of regenerative components, including platelets and signaling factors, that support tissue repair.

How soon will I feel results?
Many patients begin to notice improvements within weeks, with continued progress over a few months. Results vary depending on the condition and overall health.

For the best outcomes, orthobiologics is often integrated with a comprehensive rehabilitation program. Physical therapy, strength training, and flexibility exercises complement the regenerative effects of orthobiologic therapy, ensuring that athletes not only recover but also perform at their peak levels.
