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

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. A thorough evaluation by a medical professional is necessary to determine suitability.San Diego Orthobiologics Medical Group+5Middlesex Orthopedic & Spine Associates+5Mass General Brigham+5
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.
