You can verify that a clinic is authorized to provide stem cell therapy in Mexico by asking to see, and checking, four things: the sanitary license from COFEPRIS that applies to establishments handling stem cells; the licensing and quality standards of the laboratory that prepares the cells; the professional and…

At Stem Cell Mexico, choosing the right cell therapy for your condition involves more than choosing a type of cell.

It depends on the condition and the type of treatment. Based on what patients tell us, many people treated for knee, joint or spine pain begin to notice less pain within a few days to a few weeks after the application, with continued improvement over the following three to six months.

Many patients need only one application. At Stem Cell Mexico, our medical team usually recommends a single treatment first, followed by a period of follow-up to see how you respond before deciding anything else.

Stem cell therapy can help slow hair thinning and support the health of existing hair follicles, but it cannot fully prevent hereditary hair loss on its own.

Stem cell therapy is not a method for preventing hearing loss.

The cost of stem cell therapy at Stem Cell Mexico generally ranges from about $1,800 to $9,500 USD, depending on your condition, the number of cells your doctor recommends, the route of administration, the medical observation required and your logistics.

Direct injection places the stem cells, with ultrasound or fluoroscopy guidance, into the specific joint, disc or tissue that needs support. IV infusion delivers the cells into the bloodstream so they circulate through the body and interact with immune and inflammatory pathways.

Our cells come from Wharton's jelly, the gel-like connective tissue that surrounds the blood vessels inside the umbilical cord. The cords are donated after healthy, full-term births.

PRP, or platelet-rich plasma, is a concentrate of platelets prepared from a small sample of your own blood. Platelets carry growth factors that the body uses to start and organize healing.

Viability is the percentage of cells in a dose that are alive and intact. The mesenchymal stem cells we use are released by our partner laboratory with viability greater than 97%, and they are grown under hypoxic (low-oxygen) conditions that support viability of up to 98%.

Our Wharton's jelly mesenchymal stem cells are preserved through an advanced cryopreservation process, a controlled freezing and storage method, at our partner laboratory until they are needed.

Your doctor recommends a specific number of cells based on your condition, your imaging, the level of degeneration and inflammation, your mobility, your symptoms and your medical history.

Our mesenchymal stem cells come from Wharton's jelly, the connective tissue of umbilical cords donated after healthy, full-term births, with the mother's informed consent.

Yes. We offer exosomes derived from umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells.

No matching is needed. The mesenchymal stem cells we use, from Wharton's jelly of donated umbilical cords, have low immunogenicity: they carry very low levels of the molecules that usually trigger rejection, so there is no need for a blood type or DNA match before treatment.

For joint and spine treatments, yes: we ask for a recent MRI of the area to be treated, no older than three months, so the doctor can confirm the diagnosis, see the current level of damage and plan the exact application sites.

Some, yes, but never stop a prescribed medication without talking to our medical team and, when needed, to the doctor who prescribed it.

Tumor markers are part of the routine blood work on your arrival day, together with a complete blood count, a comprehensive metabolic panel and a urinalysis.

Yes. Come fasting on your arrival day, because blood samples are collected for your laboratory tests, and come fasting again on the morning of your stem cell procedure.

Many direct injection procedures in joints, the spine and other targeted areas are performed with sedation anesthesia, together with a local anesthetic, so you stay relaxed, comfortable and still while the specialist works with precision.

Our patients travel to Tijuana every week, and we organize the trip so you spend your time in the city's medical and business district with our team.

It depends on how long you have been in remission. For your safety, we require at least five years of documented cancer remission, supported by imaging reports and oncology follow-up notes, before considering cellular or exosome therapy.

After your stem cell treatment: avoid alcohol for at least 2 weeks, since it can harm the cells, and avoid cannabis and smoking.

Patients and companions should travel with a valid passport. To enter Mexico, a driver's license or ID is usually enough, but U.S. citizens returning to the United States from Mexico must present a valid passport or another accepted document.

The medical pass is a document we arrange for patients who use our transportation, so they can use the medical line, a faster lane, when crossing back into the United States after their treatment.
