Stem Cells
Stem cells are your body’s master repair cells. They can replicate and turn into other types of cells (bone, muscle, cartilage, etc.). In therapy, they’re injected into damaged areas to stimulate healing, reduce inflammation, and regenerate tissue.
Exosomes are tiny messengers released by stem cells. They don’t become new cells themselves—they tell your existing cells how to repair, regenerate, and calm inflammation. They’re like the software; stem cells are the hardware.
Currently, the FDA has not approved stem cell or exosome therapies for general clinical use, outside of certain conditions like blood disorders. However, these treatments are allowed under regenerative medicine exemption pathways, and many clinics (like ours) operate within strict regulatory and ethical frameworks using compliant, lab-tested biologics.
At Miami Stem Cell, we use:
Yes—when done right. We only use purified, lab-verified biologics and perform treatments in a controlled clinical environment. Side effects are minimal and typically limited to mild soreness or swelling at the injection site.
It depends on your condition. Some patients respond well to one session, while others may need a series of treatments over weeks or months. We tailor your protocol based on your body, goals, and progress.
Most patients notice improvement within 2 to 12 weeks—though tissue regeneration continues for up to 6 months. This isn’t a quick fix. It’s long-term healing.
Regenerative therapy addresses the root cause—damaged tissue—not just the symptoms. Unlike surgery or steroid shots, stem cells and exosomes aim to repair rather than replace or suppress. In many cases, patients use this to avoid surgery altogether.
No. The exosomes and stem cells we use are immuno-privileged, meaning your body won’t see them as foreign. This keeps rejection risk extremely low.
Because they want to sell you a $30,000 “medical vacation.” While it’s true some countries offer looser regulations, many top-tier treatments are available legally and safely in the U.S.—if you go to the right clinic.
Here’s a short list:
Unfortunately, no. These therapies are not covered by insurance yet, as they’re still considered investigational. But many patients find them worth the investment when looking to avoid surgery, downtime, or chronic pain.
Hair Loss
MSC Exosome and Stem Cell
Therapy is an advanced regenerative treatment that uses umbilical cord
-
derived mesenchymal
stem cells (MSCs) and exosomes to stimulate dormant hair follicles, reduce inflammation, and
improve scalp health. This non
-
surgical, mini
mally invasive approach helps restore hair
thickness, density, and overall vitality.
Exosomes and MSCs are packed with growth factors, proteins, and anti
-
inflammatory molecules. When applied to the scalp, they deliver regenerative sign
als to hair
follicles, waking up inactive ones and supporting active follicles to grow healthier, stronger hair.
This therapy is effective for various types of
hair loss, including:
Yes, the treatment uses ethically sourced, medical
-
grade umbilical
cord stem cells and exosomes. These are screened, tested, and processed according to
rigorous clinical safety protocols. Most patients experience minimal side effects such as mild
redness
or sensitivity at the application site.
This phased approach allows your scalp to heal and
optimizes the regenerative effect of each
treatment.
Initial signs of improvement may be visible after the secondsession, with continued progress over the next 3–8 months. Results include improved density,reduced shedding, and thicker, healthier strands
The procedure involves microneedling, which may cause mild discomfort. A
numbing cream or local anesthetic is typically used to ensure comfort.
There is little to no downtime. You can resume most normal activities
immediately, but it’s recommended to avoid washing your hair for 24 hours and to refrain from
intense physical activity for 48 hours.
Ideal candidates include:
Yes. Avoid blood
-
thinning medications, alcohol,
and smoking for at least a week before
treatment. Wash your hair with a mild shampoo on the
day of the session and avoid using styling products.
Avoid washing the scalp for 24 hours. Use gentle,
sulfate
-
free shampoos afterward. Stay out of the sun, avoid str
enuous workouts, and don’t
apply heat or chemicals to your hair for at least one week post
-
treatment
Absolutely. Many patients enhance their
outcomes by using exosome

based hair care products at home or incorp
orating red light
therapy. Your provider can recommend a customized protocol.
Sexual Wellness
Our regenerative therapies are effective for a range of male and female sexual health concerns, including:
have the unique ability to repair damaged tissue, reduce inflammation, stimulate blood vessel growth (angiogenesis), and support nerve regeneration. Exosomes are powerful cellular messengers derived from stem cells that enhance this repair process by signaling healing pathways and boosting cellular communication. Together, they promote regeneration in the tissues essential for sexual function.
Yes, the protocols are tailored based on each patient’s anatomy and goals.
All protocols are personalized after a detailed consultation.
Yes. MSCs used at Miami Stem Cell are ethically sourced from Wharton’s Jelly (umbilical cord tissue) and rigorously tested for purity and safety. Exosomes are also pharmaceutical-grade and processed in FDA-registered labs. Our physicians follow strict clinical guidelines to ensure optimal patient outcomes.
Most treatments are performed in-office and take under an hour. There is minimal to no downtime—most patients resume normal activities the same day. Some may experience mild local soreness for 24–48 hours.
While some patients notice improvement within a few weeks, most experience gradual, sustained results over 2–3 months as the body regenerates naturally. Continued improvements can be seen for up to 6 months post-treatment.
Typically, one treatment delivers significant results, but depending on age, severity, and overall health, some patients benefit from a series of 2–3 sessions spaced a few months apart. Your plan will be customized during your consultation.
No, regenerative therapies like MSCs and exosomes are not currently covered by insurance. We offer flexible payment plans and financing options to make advanced sexual wellness care accessible.
Anti Aging
Traditional microneedling stimulates your skin’s healing response by creating micro-injuries. That’s great—but we take it much further. By adding Wharton’s Jelly-derived MSC stem cells and exosomes, we supercharge the repair process with actual regenerative signals your aging skin cells have forgotten. It's the difference between poking your skin to wake up… and giving it the tools to rebuild from the inside out.
Yes, they're safe—and sterile, ethically sourced, and rigorously tested. We use mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from Wharton’s Jelly, a component of umbilical cords collected during full-term, healthy births. These MSCs are immune-privileged, meaning your body doesn’t see them as foreign—just helpful.
Exosomes are tiny messengers released by stem cells that carry growth factors, proteins, and RNA. Think of them as biological text messages telling your skin to regenerate, repair, and produce collagen. In anti-aging, they’re the MVPs—boosting cellular communication where it’s been breaking down for decades.
Most patients notice a visible glow and tighter skin after just one session, but for sustained anti-aging and deeper rejuvenation, we recommend a series of 3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Your results will continue to improve for weeks after each session, thanks to ongoing cellular signaling.
There’s minimal downtime. You may experience redness and slight swelling for 24–48 hours, similar to a mild sunburn. Because we use stem cells and exosomes, the healing process is actually faster than with standard microneedling. You’ll be glowing by day three—and thriving by week two.
Absolutely. In fact, many of our patients layer this protocol with Botox, fillers, and PRP for a comprehensive approach. Think of stem cell microneedling as your foundational treatment—restoring your skin's health so everything else looks better, lasts longer, and requires less maintenance.
Anyone over 30 who wants to age proactively, reduce fine lines, boost collagen, tighten pores, or fade pigmentation. It’s especially powerful for those who've hit a plateau with traditional skin treatments and want real, regenerative results.
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) uses growth factors from your own blood. While effective, it’s limited by the quality of your own platelets. Our MSC stem cells and exosomes are lab-purified, highly concentrated, and engineered for peak regeneration, giving you a much more powerful, consistent result.
IV
Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) are multipotent cells that can differentiate into various types of cells such as bone, cartilage, and fat cells. Exosomes are small extracellular vesicles derived from stem cells that help with cell communication, tissue repair, and inflammation reduction.
Both MSC Stem Cells and Exosomes are administered intravenously (IV). Once in the bloodstream, they migrate to areas of injury or inflammation, aiding in tissue regeneration and reducing inflammation.
These therapies are beneficial for conditions such as osteoarthritis, cardiovascular diseases, autoimmune disorders, sports injuries, neurodegenerative diseases (like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s), chronic inflammation, post-surgical recovery, and skin aging.
MSC Stem Cell therapy offers benefits like tissue regeneration, immune modulation, and neurological support, promoting the repair of damaged tissues, reducing inflammation, and aiding in recovery from neurological conditions.
Exosome therapy enhances cellular communication, supports tissue repair, reduces inflammation, and accelerates the body’s natural healing processes. It can improve conditions related to chronic inflammation, degeneration, and recovery post-surgery.
Ideal candidates include those with chronic inflammatory conditions (like arthritis or lupus), sports injuries, degenerative joint diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, and those recovering from surgery or dealing with skin aging.
People with active infections, active malignancies (cancer), blood disorders, pregnant or breastfeeding women, or those with unrealistic expectations should avoid MSC Stem Cell and Exosome IV treatments.
Each batch of exosomes undergoes thorough testing, including purity verification, potency assessment, sterility assurance, identity confirmation, and endotoxin testing to ensure safety and efficacy.
The timeline for seeing results varies depending on the individual and the condition being treated. Some people may experience improvements within weeks, while for others, it may take several months.
Arthritis
MSCs are multipotent cells capable of differentiating into various cell types, including cartilage, bone, and fat cells. In arthritis treatment, MSCs can potentially aid in repairing damaged joint tissues by promoting cartilage regeneration and reducing inflammation. Wikipedia
Exosomes are tiny extracellular vesicles secreted by cells, rich in proteins and RNA. They play a crucial role in cell communication. In arthritis, exosome therapy aims to reduce inflammation and promote tissue repair by delivering these bioactive molecules directly to the affected joints. BioRestore Health
BMAC is derived from a patient's own bone marrow and contains a concentration of stem cells and growth factors. When injected into arthritic joints, BMAC may help reduce pain and improve function by promoting tissue regeneration and modulating inflammation.
Clarix® FLO is an injectable amniotic membrane and umbilical cord particulate used to alleviate pain and improve function in patients with knee osteoarthritis. It works by modulating inflammation and promoting tissue healing. PMC+2PMC+2BioTissue+2
A2M is a naturally occurring protein in the blood that inhibits enzymes responsible for cartilage breakdown. In arthritis treatment, concentrated A2M is injected into the joint to neutralize these enzymes, potentially slowing disease progression and alleviating symptoms.

The availability and approval of these therapies vary by region and are subject to ongoing research and regulatory review. It's essential to consult with a healthcare provider to understand the current status and suitability of these treatments for your condition.
While generally considered safe, potential risks may include infection, pain at the injection site, and unintended tissue effects. Discussing these risks with your healthcare provider is crucial to make an informed decision.
The timeframe for experiencing benefits can vary. Some patients may notice improvements within weeks, while others might require several months. Individual factors and the specific therapy used play significant roles in the outcome.
These therapies are primarily explored for osteoarthritis. Their applicability to other forms of arthritis, like rheumatoid arthritis, is still under investigation.

No, regenerative therapies are not covered by insurances, but we do offer financing plans.
USA VS OVERSEAS
No, you don’t need to travel overseas for stem cell treatments. High-quality Mesenchymal Stem Cell (MSC) therapies are available in the U.S., and they are regulated for safety and effectiveness.
Yes, U.S. stem cell treatments are highly regulated by the FDA. They follow strict safety guidelines, ensuring minimal manipulation of cells to preserve their potency and therapeutic effectiveness.
U.S. clinics comply with strict FDA regulations, ensuring safe, ethical, and effective treatments. Overseas clinics often lack oversight and may use risky practices like excessive manipulation of stem cells.
Overseas treatments may involve unregulated practices, like expanding stem cells without proper safeguards. This increases risks such as infections, tumors, and reduced effectiveness. Additionally, follow-up care may be limited.
In the U.S., stem cell therapy is used to treat orthopedic injuries, autoimmune diseases, neurological disorders, and blood disorders, among others.
In the U.S., stem cells are ethically sourced from bone marrow and adipose tissue. There are no controversial practices, like using embryonic stem cells.
It’s important to choose a U.S.-based clinic that follows FDA-approved protocols, uses minimal manipulation of stem cells, and offers ethical and effective treatment options. Ensure they provide proper follow-up care after your treatment.
Autism
Umbilical cord stem cells help reduce inflammation in the brain, which is common in children with autism. They also promote healing and support the creation of new neural connections. This can lead to improvements in language, behavior, focus, and emotional regulation.
We use stem cells from the umbilical cord blood and tissue.
The Umbilical Cord Blood (UCB) Stem Cells contain five types of healing cells—hematopoietic, neural, endothelial, epithelial, and mesenchymal stem cells.
The Umbilical Cord Tissue (Wharton’s Jelly) Stem Cells contains 100% mesenchymal stem cells (compared to UCB, which has only ~3% mesenchymal stem cells).
Yes, the treatment is generally very safe. There are no known long-term side effects from using umbilical cord stem cells.
No, there are no known long-term risks associated with umbilical cord stem cell therapy. These cells have been used safely for over 60 years in treating more than 80 diseases that is approved by the FDA. The product is carefully screened, and the safety profile is excellent.
People of every age can benefit from UCB stem cells. We have treated over 700 patients from 2 to 88 years old. We do stem cell therapy for autism, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), osteoarthritis (OA), traumatic brain injury (TBI), diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, wound repair, general health/anti-aging and more.
Many studies show that children with autism have significant brain inflammation. This has been confirmed through spinal fluid testing, PET scans, and even autopsies. While inflammation isn't the only factor, it's a major one—and it’s something we can treat medically.
The stem cells are administered through an IV all at once. Once the IV line is secured, we will run some saline, bring the stem cells to room temperature (which takes about 7 minutes), then inject them directly into the IV line. You can expect the entire appointment to be about an hour.
If the stem cells are for a child, we can do the procedure with or without sedation. Using sedation will add about an hour to your appointment time. Sedation options are available at no additional charge.
We use Ketamine and/or Versed (Midazolam) via an intramuscular shot. Due to its safe profile. Both drugs have amnestic properties which helps to make the process less traumatic for kids.
Most young children—especially those with sensory issues or anxiety—do better with light sedation. The sedation is quick, safe, and wears off within an hour. We use it in about 80% of cases to ensure a calm and smooth experience.
Dosage is based on your child’s weight. Studies show that more than 1 million stem cells per kilogram of body weight are needed for results. For example, one vial of cord blood contains 30 million cells—enough for a child weighing around 30 kilograms. Your doctor will calculate the appropriate amount.
We follow the Duke University protocol, which recommends starting with one treatment and observing the response. About 40% of families return for a second treatment after 6–7 months, especially if they see strong results and want to build on them. Any improvements made are permanent, no regression is observed.
The entire visit usually takes about one hour. That includes meeting with the doctor, reviewing the plan, and completing the treatment. Most children are awake and back to normal shortly afterward.
About 65–70% of children experience meaningful improvement after stem cell treatment. Some see dramatic gains in speech, focus, or social interaction. Others improve more gradually. Every child is different, but the potential is significant.
We have treated over 700 children.
Improvements may include better speech, increased eye contact, improved focus, reduced aggression, and less anxiety. Some kids start talking more, others sleep better, or engage more socially. Results vary, but many families see life-changing benefits.
Results are variable. We have seen results in as little as a few days, but it does take some time for the cells to set up residence in the body and start producing exosomes. We believe a reasonable time frame is 2-4 weeks but could take up to 2-3 months. Please note that results are not guaranteed, while 65-75% of people do see improvements, not everybody benefits.
Yes. Studies show that improvements in autistic symptoms typically begin around one month after treatment and continue to increase over the following six months. Around the six-month mark, progress tends to reach a plateau — meaning the gains stabilize — but importantly, there is no regression.
This suggests that the benefits of treatment are sustained over time, offering long-term improvements in areas like speech, behavior, focus, and emotional regulation.
Yes. Many parents report a noticeable reduction in anxiety after treatment. Children may become calmer, less rigid, and better able to handle transitions or frustration. This is likely due to the stem cells reducing brain inflammation and improving communication between brain regions.
No, it can help teens and even young adults. While younger brains tend to be more adaptable, we’ve seen significant progress in older children too—especially in areas like anxiety, social interaction, and executive function. Every case is evaluated individually.
Yes. Many children on the spectrum experience increased aggression during puberty due to hormonal changes and brain inflammation. Stem cell therapy can help reduce inflammation and improve emotional regulation, often leading to calmer behavior.
Stem cell treatment may offer some benefit for children with genetic syndromes, particularly when inflammation or detoxification issues are involved. While research is still early, some families have reported improvements. Each case should be reviewed carefully with your doctor.
No, blood typing isn’t necessary. All red blood cells are removed from the stem cell product. The remaining solution contains only the active stem cells and plasma, making it safe for all children regardless of blood type.
No, we cannot use personally stored stem cells.
Yes. Most families fly home the next day. If you need to travel the same day, we recommend scheduling the treatment in the morning so there’s a few hours of observation before your flight or drive. There are no travel restrictions after the procedure.
The total cost depends on your child’s weight and the number of vials needed. For smaller children, the cost may be around $8,000. For older or heavier children requiring more cells, the cost can range up to $15,000. A detailed plan is provided after your consultation.
Currently, insurance does not cover umbilical cord blood stem cell therapy for autism, as it is still classified as an investigational treatment in the U.S.
However, we do offer flexible financing options through CareCredit. Depending on your family’s eligibility, you may be able to pay for treatment over a period of up to 36 months, making it more accessible and manageable.
The FRAT test (Folate Receptor Antibody Test) is a blood test that checks for antibodies that block your child’s ability to absorb folate, a critical nutrient for brain development and cellular function.
About 50% of autistic patients have autoantibodies to the folate receptor, making the incorporation of folate into the cells impossible. Folate is especially needed in brain cells for adequate function. Folinic acid (Leucovorin) enter the cell through a different mechanism, is converted to folate, and then folate metabolism can proceed normally. Multiple blinded placebo-controlled studies exist demonstrating benefit of folinic acid in this population.
If the test is positive through the FRAT test, we prescribe folinic acid (Leucovorin), a medical-grade supplement that bypasses the blocked pathway and helps restore normal brain chemistry. It’s often used in combination with stem cell therapy to enhance cognitive and behavioral outcomes.
If parents would like to have this test performed, we provide a physician order to the parents to purchase the test online.
Once ordered, the kit will be shipped to your home. Bring the kit with you on the day of the stem cell procedure — we can draw the blood sample at the same time, making the process easier for your child.
The gut health test is a simple urine test that checks for gut dysbiosis—an imbalance of bacteria in the digestive system. About 80% of kids with autism have it, and it’s linked to behaviors like anxiety, aggression, and hyperactivity. Treating gut dysbiosis can improve outcomes and make stem cell treatment more effective.
The test can be purchased online at www.analutos.com, perform the test, and mail back to the laboratory.
If gut dysbiosis is confirmed, it can be treated in a fairly simple way. Dysbiosis is treated with FMT (fecal microbial transfer), a simple procedure that includes oral antibiotic and anti-yeast that are not absorbed and stay in the GI tract; followed by oral microbes for 3-4 months. The results are amazing in early studies (95% reduction in gut symptoms, 47% reduction in autism symptoms).
Not always—but they help personalize the treatment plan. If blood draws are difficult, we can often begin folinic acid before the stem cell treatment and draw blood for the test during sedation on the day of treatment. The gut test is non-invasive and done at home, so it's easy to complete ahead of time.
Yes, stem cell treatment is legal in the United States and is an approved therapy for over 60 different medical conditions, including certain cancers, blood disorders, and immune deficiencies. When it comes to autism, stem cell therapy is considered off-label, meaning it’s not yet FDA-approved specifically for this condition. However, using FDA-regulated stem cell products in a medical setting under a physician’s supervision is fully legal and commonly practiced, especially when families are seeking innovative, personalized care options.
The key differences come down to safety, regulation, and scientific integrity.
In the U.S., our clinic uses FDA-regulated, minimally manipulated umbilical cord stem cell products. That means we do not expand, multiply, or alter the cells in any way — ensuring they remain as biologically safe and potent as when they were originally harvested from ethically donated, full-term births. Every batch is rigorously tested for sterility, viability, and potency.
In contrast, many overseas clinics expand or manipulate stem cells in ways that are not permitted in the U.S. Studies have shown that after a certain number of lab replications (called “passages”), stem cells can begin to mutate, potentially reducing their effectiveness — or worse, increasing safety risks.
