A regenerative medicine center in Medellín offering expanded mesenchymal stem cell procedures to international patients, with imaging-guided delivery and published starting prices.
Stem Cells Colombia is a regenerative medicine center based in the El Poblado district of Medellín, Colombia. The clinic works primarily with mesenchymal stem cells derived from Wharton's jelly — the connective tissue of the umbilical cord — and states that it delivers these at what it calls passage three, meaning the cells have been culture-expanded in a laboratory before administration.
Procedures are performed in an operating room setting using imaging guidance, with ultrasound used for joint injections and fluoroscopy for spinal work including intradiscal, epidural and facet joint delivery. The clinic also offers exosome preparations, hyperbaric oxygen therapy and intravenous nutrient protocols alongside cell procedures.
The clinic positions itself around a regulatory distinction: Colombia permits laboratory expansion of stem cells before administration, which is restricted in the United States. Patients considering treatment abroad should understand that this difference in regulation also means a difference in the oversight applied to the product being administered. The clinic reports having performed more than 8,000 procedures, a figure it publishes itself and which has not been independently verified.
The clinic identifies the following cell sources and supporting technologies on its website.
