Frequently asked questions
What is stem cell therapy?
Stem cell therapy is a form of regenerative medicine that uses the body's natural healing mechanisms to repair damaged tissue and reduce inflammation. Stem cells have the unique ability to develop into different cell types, making them powerful tools for treating various conditions.
Is stem cell therapy safe?
Yes, when performed by qualified medical professionals using approved protocols. Our center follows strict FDA guidelines and safety standards. We use comprehensive screening, sterile processing, and quality control measures to ensure patient safety.
How long does treatment take?
The actual stem cell injection procedure typically takes 1-4 hours depending on the type of treatment. However, the complete process including consultation, preparation, and follow-up spans several weeks to months for optimal results.
What conditions can be treated with stem cell therapy?
We treat a wide range of conditions including osteoarthritis, joint pain, sports injuries, autoimmune disorders, neurological conditions, chronic diseases, and provide anti-aging treatments. Each case is evaluated individually to determine suitability.
General Information
Treatment Process
What can I expect during the procedure?
The procedure is minimally invasive and typically performed under local anesthesia. You may experience mild discomfort during harvesting (if using autologous cells) and injection. Most patients can return to light activities within 1-3 days.
How soon will I see results?
Results vary by individual and condition. Some patients notice improvement within weeks, while others may take 3-6 months to experience full benefits as the stem cells work to regenerate tissue. We monitor your progress with regular follow-ups.
Are multiple treatments needed?
This depends on your specific condition and treatment goals. Some patients achieve desired results with a single treatment, while others benefit from multiple sessions spaced several months apart. Your personalized treatment plan will be discussed during consultation.
What is the recovery time?
Most patients experience minimal downtime. You can typically resume normal daily activities within 1-3 days, though strenuous activities should be avoided for 1-2 weeks. We provide detailed aftercare instructions tailored to your specific treatment.
Am I a good candidate for stem cell therapy?
Good candidates typically have chronic conditions that haven't responded well to conventional treatments, or those seeking regenerative alternatives to surgery. We evaluate medical history, current health status, and treatment goals during consultation to determine suitability.
Are there any contraindications?
Certain conditions may make you ineligible, including active cancer, severe infections, or certain blood disorders. Pregnancy and some autoimmune conditions may also be contraindications. A thorough medical evaluation determines your eligibility.
What is the age limit for treatment?
There is no strict age limit. We have successfully treated patients from their 20s to their 90s. Treatment suitability is based on overall health status, specific condition, and treatment goals rather than age alone.
Eligibility & Suitability
Travel & Logistics
Do you treat international patients?
Yes, we welcome patients from around the world. Our location in Tijuana, Baja California, is easily accessible from the U.S. border. We provide assistance with travel planning, accommodations, and can coordinate with your local healthcare providers.
How long should I plan to stay?
Most patients stay 2-5 days depending on their treatment protocol. This includes initial consultation, procedure, and immediate follow-up. We can help arrange local accommodations and provide recommendations for comfortable recovery.
Are multiple treatments needed?
Follow-up typically includes scheduled check-ins at specific intervals (1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year). Many follow-ups can be conducted virtually, though some patients choose to return for in-person evaluations. We coordinate with your local physician as needed.
