The NCES procedure involves three main steps:

1. Skin Harvesting: A small, healthy skin sample is harvested from an area like the thigh or upper arm, which has similar texture and pigment to the treatment area.
2. Cell Preparation: The harvested skin is processed into a suspension. The outermost layers of the skin (epidermis) are separated, and the cells, including melanocytes, keratinocytes, and other essential skin cells, are isolated to create a non-cultured suspension.
3. Application: The suspension is applied to the depigmented or damaged area, allowing these healthy cells to integrate and encourage pigmentation and healing. A dressing is then placed on the treated area to support recovery.

Conditions Treated by NCES at DERMAQURE

NCES is particularly effective for various skin disorders, including:

• Vitiligo: One of the most common applications for NCES. It helps restore lost pigment in depigmented patches of skin.
• Scars: NCES can improve the appearance of scars by promoting skin regeneration.
• Burns: It can be used to treat depigmented areas following burns.
• Hypopigmented Lesions: NCES works effectively on patches of skin that have lost color due to conditions like trauma or previous medical procedures.

Benefits of NCES

• Minimal Downtime: Patients can resume normal activities within a few days of the procedure.
• Natural Results: The use of the patient’s own skin cells ensures natural-looking results without the risk of rejection.
• Non-Cultured Approach: Since the cells are not cultured in a lab, the process is quicker, often completed within a single session.
• Safe and Effective: NCES has been clinically proven to be safe and effective for treating various forms of depigmentation and scarring.
