Stem Cell Therapy - Your Complete Guide

Stem cells (Scs) are your body's natural repair kit- they reduce inflammation, repair damage, and regenerate tissue. Unlike regular cells, they can transform into the specific cell types your body needs for healing.

What are the types of Stem Cells

Mesenchymal SCs are the most widely used in therapy today. They can turn into cartilage, fat, and bone cells - making them powerful for repair and regeneration.

Adipose-Derived MSCs (Fat Tissue): Taken from your own fat, cultured (4 -6 weeks), then reinjected. Often used in anti-aging and orthopedic care.

Umbilical Cord MSCs: Donor-derived, young and highly potent, with strong anti-inflammatory and regenerative effects.

Where Can They Be Applied?
  • Skin & Anti-Aging: Improves tissue repair, reduces inflammation, and supports rejuvenation.
  • Diabetes: Helps restore insulin-producing beta cells.
  • Joint Regeneration: Repairs cartilage, reduces pain, and slows ostheoarthritis.
  • Eyesight: Protects and regenerates retinal and optic nerve cells.
Common and famous cases have been primarily around muscle and joint repair to reduce, eliminate, or avoid the need for surgery and long term reliance on medication.

What's Stem Cell Cultivation and Recovery Like?

Adipose MSCs: Require ~4 - 6 weeks of lab cultivation before reinjection. Patients schedule 2 visits with 1 for adipose collection and another for treatment.

Cord MSCs: Ready-to-use, procedure takes 45–60 minutes.

Downtime: Minimal, usually 2–3 days.

Results: Improvements appear gradually over weeks to months as cells repair and regenerate.

The Medical Agency's Clinics

Here are some of our choices:

Miracle Regenerative Center: Owned by Swiss Laboratories and led by the famous Dr Rowland, the clinic is affordable but has a formidable reputation of being one of the best clinics in Asia. This would be our go-to choice.

Rakan Clinic, Azabudai: Closely affiliated with Aman, Tokyo (Kim Kardashian's favourite hotel) - Rakan Clinic has boasted 3 of Japan's prime ministers as part of its client list. They specialise in Adipose stem cell therapy although they also have other options such as PRP or Exosome Therapy.

N2 Clinic, Chinzanso: Located in the middle of a Meiji-era Gardens and Hotel, this clinic would be our choice for a hyper-personalised experience. The clinic specialises in aesthetic surgery, particularly laser liposuction - but also does adipose stem cell therapy. The Medical Agency offers a special package (ends December, 2025) for complementary nights at The Chinzanso Hotel.

The Prevention Clinic / 9ru Clinic : The Imperial Gardens and The Peninsula Hotel is a statement within itself, but The Prevention Clinic / 9ru Clinic offer a full preventative health check and unlimited stem cell therapy for $120,000 USD. Although it sounds high, this would be great value for those looking to rejuvenate their hips, knees, or shoulders.
