Pros and Cons of Two Types of Anti-Aging Stem Cell Therapy
Autologous Stem Cells (Patient’s Own Cells)
Pros:
The primary advantage of autologous stem cell therapy is that the patient’s own cells are used. This ensures full biological compatibility. Since the cells come from the patient, they are absorbed by the body in the most effective way, reducing the risk of rejection or immune response.
Cons:
The main drawback of this therapy is the time required to cultivate the cells. After blood or adipose tissue is collected, it takes about 7 days to expand the stem cells to the required quantity for injections. This means that the patient will either need to visit Barcelona twice with a 6-7 day interval, or stay in the city for an entire week.
The process of collecting and cultivating the cells can be time-consuming, which makes it less suitable for patients who cannot spend an extended period in Barcelona.
Donor Stem Cells , “Pure Line” Stem Cells (or Umbilical Cord Stem Cells)
Pros:
The main advantage of donor stem cells is their immediate availability. The clinic has fresh, quality-tested stem cells ready for use. This allows patients to come for the necessary number of days for injections without waiting for cultivation.
Donor cells can be used for different types of injections: intravenous or intradermal for the face or neck. Intravenous injections require a higher dose — from 25 to 50, or even 100 million cells, while for facial skin, 10-20 million cells are sufficient.
This method is ideal for patients who need a quick procedure, as it reduces the total clinic stay to just a few days.
Cons:
Since donor cells are used, there is a minimal risk of an immune response, though most donor cells are processed and tested to minimize these risks.
Autologous cells are best suited for those who seek maximum biocompatibility, whereas donor stem cells offer a faster anti-aging results option without the need for prolonged waiting.
STEM CELLS PROCESSING
AUTOLOGOUS STEM CELLS
The process of blood collection for the use of stem cells begins with the patient’s first visit to the clinic, which typically takes around 1.5-2 hours. During this visit, a standard blood draw is performed, where blood is taken from a vein in the patient’s arm. Once collected, the blood samples are sent to a laboratory for further processing.
In the laboratory, a 24-hour process begins to isolate and cultivate the stem cells from the blood. Specialists extract the stem cells and initiate their cultivation, multiplying their quantity millions of times through advanced techniques. This process takes approximately 7 days, during which the stem cells undergo several stages of multiplication and preparation.
At the end of the 7-day cultivation period, the laboratory produces the required dosage of stem cells for intravenous injections. Depending on the patient’s individual needs, the dosage can range from 25 to 50 million, or even up to 100 million stem cells.
DONOR ( OR UMBILICAL CORD) STEM CELLS
The process of using stem cells from donor cell cultures or stem cells from umbilical cord blood. Once received, the cells are transferred to our biotech laboratory, where specialists perform thorough quality and sterility checks to ensure they meet the highest safety and efficacy standards.
After verification, the cells undergo a cultivation process to multiply their numbers to the required dosage. This can range from 25 to 100 million stem cells, depending on the patient’s needs. This entire process eliminates the need for cell extraction from the patient since the cells are sourced from healthy donors or umbilical cord blood.
Once the cells are fully cultivated and prepared, they are ready for intravenous injection. Thanks to this streamlined process, the patient only needs a single visit to the clinic for the injection, without the need for multiple visits or additional biomaterial collection. The stem cells are then administered intravenously, where they begin their work on regenerating damaged tissues and organs.
Detailed Description of Stem Cell Anti-Aging Therapy Packages and Pricing
Cost of anti-aging stem cell therapy depends on the dosage of stem cells administered. This is due to the labor-intensive process involved in preparing stem cells. The extraction, cultivation, quality control, and preparation of the required dosage require specialized equipment, biotechnology expertise, and time. We offer three standard dosage packages designed for anti-aging therapy, with pricing structured according to the number of cells provided:
Minimum Dosage (25 million stem cells)
Description: This package includes a minimum dose of 25 million stem cells, suitable for patients who are seeking moderate rejuvenation effects. It covers both intravenous and local intradermal injections. This dosage is often recommended for early-stage anti-aging treatments or for patients who wish to start with a lighter procedure.
What’s Included:
Stem Cell Extraction: The process of isolating the stem cells from the patient or donor source.
Sterility Control: Ensures that the cells are free from contaminants.
Quality Control: Each batch of stem cells undergoes rigorous testing for viability, activity, and safety.
Dosing Control: Accurate preparation of the 25 million cell dose.
Intravenous and Local Injections Both systemic (IV) and targeted (intradermal) treatments are provided.
Standard Dosage (50 million stem cells)
Description: The standard dose of 50 million stem cells provides enhanced anti-aging benefits and is the most commonly selected package. This dosage significantly improves skin regeneration, enhances energy levels, and delivers more profound systemic rejuvenation. It is ideal for patients seeking both internal health benefits and visible skin improvement.
What’s Included:
Full stem cell preparation, sterility, and quality control process.
Intravenous injections: A higher dose for full-body rejuvenation and organ regeneration.
Local intradermal injections for skin revitalization, targeting areas such as the face, neck, or hands.
Maximum Dosage (100 million stem cells)
Description: This package provides the maximum dose of 100 million stem cells, offering the most potent regenerative and anti-aging effects. It is designed for patients looking to address deeper aging issues or who are undergoing significant skin and body rejuvenation. The higher dose enhances the repair and regeneration of tissues, organs, and skin, and provides long-lasting anti-aging benefits.
What’s Included:
Extensive extraction and preparation of 100 million stem cells.
Complete sterility, quality control, and dosing oversight.
Intravenous injections: Higher doses to target systemic aging and boost organ function.
Local intradermal injections to improve skin elasticity, tone, and appearance.
Additional Services and Procedures
While stem cell therapy is one of the most effective anti-aging treatments, we offer additional rejuvenation services to further enhance results. However, combining these immediately with stem cell therapy is not recommended. These can be done 2-3 months post-stem cell therapy, allowing the body to fully integrate and maximize the benefits of the stem cells before proceeding with further treatments. Some of the additional services include:
Laser Therapy: Skin resurfacing and tightening to complement the regenerative effects of stem cell therapy.
Apparatus-Based Treatments: Advanced aesthetic technologies for skin lifting and rejuvenation.
Hyaluronic Acid Fillers and PRP: For further skin hydration, volume, and collagen stimulation.
Plastic Surgery: Available upon request, although it is advised to wait until the full benefits of stem cell therapy have been realized before undergoing invasive procedures.
