Ask the doctor or medical staff from where they are harvesting the healthy stem cells used in your treatment. If the answer isn’t your own bone marrow, this should be cause for alarm and a sign you’re dealing with an unqualified stem cell clinic.
The FDA has said that only bone marrow stem cells can be used for approved stem cell treatments. There are a lot of studies showing their efficacy and safety. The reasons for this are many and complex, but partially this is because only trained medical professionals are able to properly harvest stem cells from bone marrow with the expertise needed for such a procedure.
Please note that Regenerative Medicine including PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) and Stem Cell injection therapy is NOT FDA Approved.
