In some cases, it may be a combination of more than one treatment protocol. However, in some instances, the complete protocol for treatment involves the administration of a series of injections during several treatment sessions. The choice of treatment is made at the discretion of the Consultant, depending on your unique case.  

In general, Regenerative Medica Stem Cells Therapies can be utilized by anyone, regardless of age, race, or gender. However, to determine if you are the right candidate and will benefit the most from Regenerative treatment, you will need to schedule an appointment with our clinic. Our Consultant will review your medical records and determine if you are a suitable candidate for our Therapy. The choice of treatment is then at the discretion of the Consultant based on your unique case.

Several studies published about Regenerative medicine demonstrate the efficacy of Regenerative treatments. At Medica Stem Cells, we have been using the innovative Stem Cell Therapy for more than five years with excellent results. Our patients have testified to see a marked reduction in pain as well as improvement in cartilage quality. The trials concerning Regenerative therapies are widely published online (ex. on PubMed) and readily available for all to access. These treatments allow the body to heal and regenerate in ways that were impossible before. Regenerative technology provides a natural alternative to the use of medication and surgeries, which may be more harmful and invasive.

Regenerative therapy procedures are quickly becoming the first line of treatment for chronic pain, degenerative joint disease, like arthritis or osteoarthritis. With Regenerative Treatment, we provide you with a minimally invasive option to avoid invasive surgical repair and other various conditions. There are many Medica Stem Cell testimonials on our website from patients who have experienced significant improvements in their health for You to view.

Regenerative Therapy only takes a 1-2 hours to complete. Being an outpatient procedure, it takes only a 1-2 hours to finish the treatment. We do not administer general anaesthesia during the procedure, and most of our patients don’t need post-operative pain medication. Patients will be able to go home almost immediately after the injection. Since this Therapy is an orthobiological treatment, it requires some time for the cells to restore the damaged areas the patients will not feel the effect of the injection immediately. Most of the patient’s experience reduced pain and improved mobility over time mostly, due to the strong anti-inflammatory effect and the growth factors associated with adult mesenchymal cells and SVF.

For the first few days after the treatment, you might experience mild discomfort at the injection site. But the pain is not restrictive, mild pain in the treatment area may persist for a day or two. The pain is mild and manageable with rest, and if needed, simple pain killers can be taken as advised by the Consultant.

Sports injuries or conditions may or may not require repeat treatment. Typically, it is best to wait 3-6 months before considering it.

Reviews of your progress may extend up to 6 months following the procedure. Reviews can be through clinic visits or for your ease by video/phone call.

During the period of follow up, you need to keep an accurate record of your progress. The follow-up session helps the Consultant to track your improvement. 

The outcome of the treatment and extent of improvement varies from one patient to another. The results mostly depend on the type and severity of the condition, age, etc.
