Frequently Asked Questions

Stem cells are unique in the body for their ability to transform into different types of specialized cells. They play an essential role in growth, development, and tissue repair. The adult stem cells we use have the potential to regenerate and restore damaged tissues, making them key in various medical treatments, especially in the field of regenerative medicine.

Stem cell therapy uses cells capable of regenerating tissues to treat various diseases and injuries. It works as follows:

• Autologous stem cells (from the patient) or allogeneic stem cells (from a donor) are applied.

• These cells target the affected area to:

  • Regenerate damaged tissues.

  • Reduce inflammation.

  • Stimulate healing at the cellular level.

Unlike other treatments, stem cell therapy not only relieves symptoms but also promotes repair from the root of the problem.

At our clinic, mesenchymal stem cells are obtained from the healthy tissue of the umbilical cord (Wharton’s Jelly) and the placenta, collected safely after birth.

These cells undergo rigorous cultivation and laboratory testing to ensure their viability and purity. Thanks to their ability to transform into different types of cells—such as neurons, bone tissue, cartilage, liver, or heart cells—they are a key tool in regenerative medicine.

Yes, stem cell treatment at StemLife Clinic is safe and well tolerated by patients. We use mesenchymal stem cells extracted from tissues such as the umbilical cord, which are biocompatible and do not cause rejection, as they do not trigger aggressive immune responses.

Side effects are rare and, when they occur, are usually mild and temporary, such as pain at the injection site, mild swelling, or temporary fatigue. Our medical team conducts a comprehensive assessment before treatment to ensure it is suitable for you, and you are supported every step of the way.

In short, it is a minimally invasive, safe treatment with a low risk of complications, offering a real alternative to improve quality of life in a variety of health conditions.

Stem cell treatments are not a “magic cure,” but they do represent an innovative alternative that can help reduce symptoms, improve quality of life, and support recovery and regeneration processes in different conditions. Each person responds differently, which is why we conduct a personalized medical evaluation before recommending any therapy.

Results are not immediate, as they depend on the condition being treated and the response of each body. Some patients notice positive changes within weeks, while for others, improvements become more evident over months. At Stem Life Clinic, we provide close follow-up for each case to monitor progress and adjust treatment as needed.

The number of therapies required depends on your specific condition and health goals. However, in most cases, at StemLife Clinic, it’s possible to complete the entire treatment in a single visit, as we administer high doses of up to 300 million stem cells in a single session. This reduces the need for multiple trips and makes the process easier for our international patients.

Some patients with chronic or degenerative conditions may require a second session after several months, but this is assessed on a personalized basis. Our medical team will provide you with a clear plan from the first consultation, and we always strive to offer the most effective, safe, and convenient solution for you.

Yes, you can! Stem cell treatment at StemLife Clinic is minimally invasive, and most patients feel well enough to resume light activities, including sightseeing. However, we recommend that major sightseeing activities be completed before the procedure. After treatment, it’s best to take a day of rest and avoid strenuous physical exertion to promote a better recovery.

Many of our international patients enjoy exploring Guadalajara before their appointment, then take the opportunity to relax in the city for a few days before returning home. Our team will guide you through specific care options based on your case.

The benefits of stem cell therapies can vary from person to person. Factors such as lifestyle, disease severity, and medical follow-up directly influence the duration of the effects.

Our goal is not only to offer you results, but also to help you maintain them over time.

At StemLife, patient care doesn’t end when you leave our facility. We provide personalized follow-up care to monitor your progress and address any questions. We also offer recommendations designed to support your recovery and extend the benefits of treatment long-term.

We care about your overall well-being, and we are with you every step of the way.

The main difference lies in the quality of the procedure and the quantity of cells administered. At Stem Life Guadalajara, we use advanced cryopreservation and cell expansion techniques that allow us to administer much higher doses, up to 300 million stem cells in a single session. In comparison, many clinics in the United States administer around 40 million, which can limit the regenerative potential of the treatment.

Additionally, at our clinic, you receive highly specialized care at a much more affordable cost, without sacrificing quality. This allows us to provide better clinical results, with greater efficacy in tissue regeneration and a more comprehensive recovery for our patients.

Stem Life Guadalajara is the ideal choice if you are looking for the best in regenerative medicine, with advanced technology and a smart investment in your health.
