About Stem Cell Therapy
What exactly are stem cells and how do they work?

The Treatment Process
What happens during a stem cell treatment?
The process typically involves:
Medical evaluation – Your health history and tests
Cell preparation – Either extracting your cells or preparing donor cells
Injection – Cells delivered through IV or directly to the affected area
Recovery – Usually same-day discharge with minimal downtime
The entire process may take 2-4 hours. Some clinics spread it over multiple days.
