Synopsis: Information and list of Longevity Clinics also known as Anti Aging Centers or Life Extension Institutes. Some researchers believe that future breakthroughs in tissue rejuvenation with stem cells, molecular repair, and organ replacement (such as with artificial organs or xenotransplantations) will eventually enable humans to have indefinite lifespans through complete rejuvenation to a healthy youthful condition. Longevity does not necessarily refer to living an extended lifespan. You may live to be a 100 but is it any good if you spend your last years suffering with sleep, wrinkled skin, reduced muscle and bone mass, hearing impairment and visual disability?

Main Item
Life extension science, also known as anti-aging medicine, experimental gerontology, or biomedical gerontology, is the study of slowing down or reversing the processes of aging to extend both the maximum and average lifespan. Some researchers believe that future breakthroughs in tissue rejuvenation with stem cells, molecular repair, and organ replacement (such as with artificial organs or xenotransplantations) will eventually enable humans to have indefinite lifespans through complete rejuvenation to a healthy youthful condition.
Longevity does not necessarily refer to living an extended lifespan. You may live to be a 100 but is it any good if you spend your last years suffering with sleep, wrinkled skin, reduced muscle and bone mass, hearing impairment and visual disability?
Ever thought about looking for anti aging doctors? Most of us consider seeing a doctor when we are sick and occasionally for preventive medical reasons. But now with Baby Boomers retiring or near retiring by the millions, more people are choosing to see doctors who specialize in anti-aging treatments and regenerative medicine so they can live out their golden years in excellent health.
Despite the current global economic situation people are still spending money to look and feel younger, and the market for those looking to keep their bodies and minds sharp into their old age has never been larger.
International opportunities for anti-aging and life extension treatments are also expanding rapidly. There are a wide range of medical treatments available around the world with anti aging drugs, medicines, and treatments being developed in many countries. Traveling Internationally for medical purposes is known as Medical Tourism.
