Another new client's first time out with CAREprp.
This (from this morning) right out of the centrifuge. Let it sit for a minute and the buffy coat/red blood cell layer settled nicely into a straight line.
Then, by rotating the bottom collar, pushed the buffy coat to the bottom of the neck of the tube, let it sit for another 30 seconds to settle some more and then slowly pushed a bit more (to where the top of the red blood cell layer was in the middle of the neck of the tube).
That way we captured the monocytes and lymphocytes along with some additional platelets and left the inconsequential neutrophils behind to serve as an additional barrier from the red blood cells; yielding a Monocyte-Rich PRP. Pushing a bit more would yield a Leukocyte-Rich PRP and less (to the bottom of the neck) for a Leukocyte-Poor PRP.
Not all systems are perfect all the time for every patient so we have our standard parameters and if, by chance, something doesn't come out right (variabilities from patient to patient) we can make some simple adjustments to the tube and spin again for 3 minutes.
The yield can be customized as can the process if needed.
Our weekly training keeps us well-educated and constantly evolving and we pass that on to you. Once internalized you can easily make these adjustments (in a matter of seconds) when needed.
Truly a system that can serve many patients quite well with the corresponding gratification of a job well done.
Thanks.

A brief summary of three CAREstream favorites (plus why CAREstream is a favorite) is -
CAREstream America - We exist to find the best solutions for you (even if not from us), are constantly evolving & learning and always put your needs before our own. We care more about you than about making a sale.
The Pro-Nox Nitrous Oxide System - Significantly improve patient retention and often declared as essential.
CAREprp - Save time optimizing platelet recovery.
Water-Assisted Liposuction (especially when harvesting fat for re-injection) - There is almost no destruction of fat cells or the surrounding tissues during the harvesting process.
Thank you as I enter my 34th year serving clients like you and will be available anytime over the next 40 years or so.
Sincerely,

This short video, I believe, captures the essence of what CAREstream America is all about. From the venerable Pro-Nox Nitrous Oxide System to CAREprp (which maximizes the potential of PRP) to the gentle Water-Assisted Liposuction System (which changes how liposuction is viewed) to the groundbreaking A*M system, VeinViewer, enormously popular Single-Use Injection Kits, Pharma Systems Anesthesia/Respiratory Filters & HCHs and Serres Surgical Fluid Management Disposable Suction Bags and Reusable Cannisters we consistently do what we do to the best of our ability; with weekly training and constant evolution to do even better.
Others do what they do best and we remain in our lane to be the best of the best in our respective arena.
There are some extraordinary new approaches to the CAREprp System that your local rep might like to show to you (especially if you're in NJ, DE or the eastern half of PA; because it's me) and the Water-Assisted Liposuction method is very rapidly becoming recognized for what it will allow you to do (with myself and our OUTSTANDING clinical specialist guiding you through patient trials to see for yourself before committing).
The entire team is exceptional and functions as a single unit. It's quite amazing and even though it took me 29 years to find such a company - better late than never.
Got sidetracked a bit. Here's the video -

I don't get easily excited, but sometimes do and now is one of those times. Just spent a few hours last week with our Water-Assisted Liposuction Clinical Specialist (who's a Nurse and an Engineer) and two Clients (and their entire Staff) to put the finishing touches on getting my head completely around the larger system.
The small one has been very popular because it's ideal for harvesting small volumes of fat for facial procedures; so it's "it" for Facial Plastic Surgeons.
The larger one (as pictured on the left) functions the same, but just has more functions and can do it all (to include small volumes).
You may be asking "Why Water-Assisted Liposuction" (vs. traditional methods and/or manual fat harvesting). A few highlights are:
- a gentle spray loosens fat and simultaneously aspirates/automatically micronizes with almost no destruction of fat cells or surrounding tissues
- much higher quality of harvested fat without harvesting unwanted tissues
- the quality/viability comes from the method of harvesting and not from processing - you begin with the best quality right from the start
- the survival rate of harvested fat is around 90%
- may complement an existing system, but is still easier on the patient when performing liposuction without fat grafting (no tumescence technique, shorter procedure times, general anesthesia not required, very high patient satisfaction, etc.).
Thank you and I would be THRILLED to serve you and your staff to give you another tremendous option for your patients.
We often begin with 1-3 patient trials and I can even share my notes from last week with you if you'd like to take a look.
In the meantime -
Available anytime at your convenience.

Please check out, if you like, the extensive updates on my site’s CAREstream page - https://eortho.com/carestream
A brief summary, too, of everyone’s favorites is -

The Pro-Nox Nitrous Oxide System
· Effectively and safely helps to manage pain and anxiety with close to 100% satisfaction.
· Significantly improve patient comfort during painful procedures; and, consequently, patient retention, practice growth and a more pleasant experience for everyone.
· Similar to conventional IV and opioid analgesia, but without the side effects.

CAREprp
· Designed to optimize platelet recovery, without red blood cell contamination (unless desired), yielding higher concentrations at lower volumes with less blood drawn.
· A short spin from a 23ml blood draw produces a result that allows you to create a yield that maximizes the potential of PRP.
· Unlimited thorough in-person training.

Water-Assisted Liposuction (for Aesthetics and/or Regenerative Medicine)
· Gentle spray to loosen fat/simultaneously aspirate to maximize fat cell viability with almost no destruction of fat cells or surrounding tissues during the harvesting process.
· Quality comes from method of harvesting and you will not be harvesting any unwanted tissue. Centrifugation of harvested fat is not required. You begin with the best quality right from the start.
· You are harvesting and micronizing fat in one single step.
· General anesthesia is not required.

Thank you very much and please don’t hesitate anytime.

The attached are a few pics of fat harvested using our smaller Water-Assisted Liposuction system along with a Guide that I put together following training with our Clinical Specialist and adjusted from input with Clients.
The following are the top reasons why Water-Assisted Liposuction is the best method for harvesting fat for reinjection (whether for Aesthetic and/or Regenerative purposes).
For harvesting fat there simply is no equal. When liposuction-only there are several good systems, but Water-Assisted is still often preferred for several reasons. Some will stick with what they're familiar with, but Water-Assisted remains an option -
The Water-Jet Method is a well-established liposuction procedure to harvest fat. With the use of a gentle spray (to loosen fat and simultaneously aspirate) there is almost no destruction of fat cells or surrounding tissues during the harvesting process.
· Tumescence is Not Required
· Procedure Times are Shorter
· Change of Cannulas for Infiltration/Aspiration is Not Required
· Centrifugation of harvested fat is not required. Much higher
quality of harvested fat; without harvesting unwanted tissue.
· General Anesthesia is Not Required
· Very High Patient Satisfaction
You are harvesting and micronizing fat in one single step. The quality/viability comes from the method of harvesting and not from processing. You begin with the best quality from the start.
- Almost all procedures may be performed under local anesthesia.
- Patients experience less pain during the procedure and after surgery; and have shorter recovery times/less swelling and bruising.
- Harvested fat is ready for reinjection without processing.
The survival rate of fat cells is very high - typically around 90%.
Thank you and the entire team is available at your convenience; and we typically begin with 1-3 patient trials.

Happy New Year for what promises to be a very exciting 2025.
The following are three premier offerings that drive exceptional results and am available anytime for unwavering support as you explore their potential -

The Pro-Nox Nitrous Oxide System
· Effectively and safely helps to manage pain and anxiety with close to 100% satisfaction.
· Significantly improve patient comfort during painful procedures; and, consequently, patient retention and practice growth (along with procedure time management).
· Similar to conventional IV and opioid analgesia, but without the side effects.

CAREprp
· Designed to optimize platelet recovery, without red blood cell contamination (unless desired), yielding higher concentrations at lower volumes with less blood drawn.
· A 3 or 4-minute spin from a 23ml blood draw produces a result that very simply allows you to create a yield with or without monocytes/lymphocytes, neutrophils and/or red blood cells.
· Unlimited thorough in-person training to ensure that you can easily customize your PRP preparation for your exact needs.
· While some are exploring PRF and PRFM I’ve found that most experienced PRP specialists do not use PRFM and that PRF, in particular, may significantly diminish the viability of your PRP.
· Available anytime to discuss and I suggest trying first if interested.

Water-Assisted Liposuction (for Aesthetics and/or Regenerative Medicine)
· Gentle spray to loosen fat/simultaneously aspirate to maximize fat cell viability while minimizing damage to the surrounding tissues.
· Quality comes from method of harvesting - not from processing; and you will not be harvesting any unwanted tissue.
You’re preserving the integrity of harvested fat for optimal outcomes.
· Procedure times are shorter and general anesthesia is not required.
· Some will add Water-Assisted Liposuction to complement existing systems.
· The Water-Jet Method is becoming the standard for Lipedema treatment due to the lymph-sparing gentle technique.
· We always begin the journey with 1-3 no-obligation patient trials and I will gladly coordinate everything for you.

Thank you very much and please don’t hesitate to reach out anytime to see how I can possibly assist in helping you to make 2025 your best year yet.

Once in awhile a Veteran will ask me about a career choice and I'll mention sales. They'll often not know a thing about (what they think) is sales so I'll further explain and occasionally a lightbulb will go off.
Teachers and nurses often make GREAT sales people. That's because they genuinely care about others.
The following leadership traits are why Veterans are also often exceptional.
Real sales is often not what we think (thanks to short-term self-serving non-caring attitudes) and injecting world-class leadership into a sales career is the highest calling of the profession.
The following, really, applies to anything and the 11th item sort of covers it all.
Without further ado -
Leadership - Helping Others to Do Their Best
Maximize Your Sales with Military Leadership:
- Set the Example
- Keep Your Word
- Have the Courage to Stand Up for What’s Right
- Be on Time
- Do the Job Without Being Told
- Be Friendly and Respectful
- Treat Everyone Equally
- Be Enthusiastic and Let Others Do What They Do Best
- Be Neat and Clean
- Share Unpleasant Tasks
- Put the Needs of Others Before Your Own - THIS ONE
- Privately Correct Others When They’re Wrong
- Help Someone Who’s in Trouble
- Weight the Facts with Good Judgement
- Only Present a Problem with a Corresponding Solution
- Humility, Good Character and Intelligence Will Go a Long Way
- Focus on Peoples’ Strengths
- Those with Purpose, Goals and Vision Have No Time for Drama
- You Have Arrived When Your People Can Perform at Their Best Without You
