Alcoholic Liver Disease

Supporting recovery once drinking has stopped, honestly and directly.

Care for alcoholic liver disease at Bangkok Stem Cell Center

What is Alcoholic Liver Disease?

Years of heavy drinking take a cumulative toll on the liver, moving through fatty change, inflammation and, in some people, towards cirrhosis. It often shows up as fatigue, a tender liver, digestive changes or abnormal bloodwork picked up almost by accident. Where you sit on that spectrum changes everything about what's realistic, which is why we don't treat this as one condition.

How regenerative medicine supports it

We start with imaging and liver function tests to establish severity, and we're direct that ongoing alcohol use undermines anything we do, so abstinence or genuine reduction is part of the conversation from day one. For earlier-stage damage, we use IV therapies aimed at reducing liver inflammation and oxidative stress, retesting function every couple of months. Where scarring is already established, our role is supportive alongside a hepatologist, not a treatment for the cirrhosis itself.

If the evidence for treating alcoholic liver disease this way is thin, we will tell you before you book — and the review is not billed.

Alcoholic Liver Disease — Questions Patients Ask

Will this let me keep drinking as before?

No, and we won't pretend it does — continued heavy drinking will outpace anything we offer, so meaningful reduction or stopping is part of any plan we agree on.

Can you reverse the damage that's already been done?

Early fatty change and inflammation can often improve significantly once drinking stops, but established scarring doesn't reverse, and we'll tell you plainly which category you're in based on your results.

How do you know how bad my liver damage is?

We use imaging, elastography where available and a full liver panel, since guessing from symptoms alone isn't reliable enough to build a safe plan.

Is it safe to have IV therapy if my liver enzymes are very high?

Not always immediately — very elevated enzymes may need to settle first, and in some cases we'll ask you to be seen by a hepatologist before we begin anything here.

What if I already have cirrhosis?

We can offer supportive therapy alongside your hepatologist's ongoing care, but cirrhosis needs specialist management we're not positioned to replace.
