Lightyears ahead of the USA

Although politics prevent these proven therapies from being mainstream in North American clinics, our COFEPRIS-licensed regenerative medicine clinic in Puerto Vallarta can administer over 800 million mesenchymal stem cells that can turn into any cell needed in the body with a 94% rate of viability! Our advanced medical procedures are based on world-class cellular regeneration techniques and gene therapy technology that yields 10x the results and costs 40% less for patients.

Regenerative medicine isn’t new. Stem cell therapy isn’t new. Our doctors have been using these regenerative medical procedures long before they gained hype and popularity in celebrity columns. The healing of the future began with us.

In terms of quality and treatment outcome, our cellular therapies exceed similar therapies available in the USA and Canada and are decades away from being adopted. While developed countries in Europe, Asia, and Oceania have implemented policies to adopt the same international stem cell standards used at our clinic, you won’t find this quality and quantity of pluripotent mesenchymal stem cells anywhere else but at our beautiful clinic in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.

Frequently Asked Questions
About Stem Cell Therapy in Mexico

Browse some of the main questions we get. Send us any additional questions to answer during your initial consultation held virtually or in-person.

At our clinic, we harvest stem cells typically from the hip bone, femur, or sternum of screened, healthy patients. If blood tests and other studies demonstrate that the patient's own bone marrow is not eligible for cell extraction, we will use a qualified donor who has been screened by our doctors.

L
p

The bone marrow is a spongy tissue found in the center of the bones. It functions like a "factory" for new cells and stores fat and certain types of stem cells.

The bone marrow is responsible for producing, maturing, and releasing into the bloodstream a variety of cell types when needed: white cells needed to fight infection, stem cells that make up the immune system, red blood cells needed to carry oxygen, platelets needed to stop bleeding, collagen needed for healthy skin, muscles, tendons, cartilage, and bones, glucosamine to combat osteoarthritis, relieve joint pain, and reduce inflammation in the joints, and more.

L
p

Researchers have confirmed that bone marrow contains rich reserves of stem cells, growth factors, cytokines, hyaluronic acid, exosomes, and other extracellular matrix components. Stem cells derived from the bone marrow can be transplanted into humans and become any type of cell to repair and regenerate the body!

Before it was popularized by celebrities, for over 35 years, our doctors have been harnessing the tissues in the bone marrow to reproduce and harvest stem cells to regenerate organs, rejuvenate cells, and treat diseases.

Where do mesenchymal stem cells come from?

At our stem cell therapy clinic in Mexico, stromal mesenchymal stem cells are extracted from healthy bone marrow tissue. In a clinical study complying with FDA and AATB standards, mesenchymal stem cells were determined to be safe and effective.

After extraction, these stem cells undergo a rigorous laboratory testing and cultivation process to produce billions of stem cells viable for use in regenerative medicine. Our lab and application centers abide by the highest international standards enforced by COFEPRIS and ISO class 5 and 6.

The resulting induced pluripotent mesenchymal stem cells can develop into virtually any type of cell in the body: neuron, nerve tissue, cartilage, bone, heart cell, liver cell, kidney cell, blood cell, and more. With stem cells and other treatments that are designed to regenerate damaged tissue, we can treat a variety of chronic degenerative illnesses and combat aging.

 

How much does stem cell therapy cost in Mexico?

Stem cell therapy in Mexico costs between $4000 USD to $25,000 USD depending on the condition being treated. You can get 10x the results and save up to 40% in total out-of-pocket costs compared to an equivalent stem cell treatment in the USA.

At Alternative Medicine By Bars, our all-inclusive stem cell treatment protocols can include doses of up to 300 million mesenchymal stem cells (way more than what you can get in the USA), doctor consultation fees, lab work, auxiliary medical treatments,  daily transportation, personalized prepared meals, and more!  

Even including plane tickets, lodging, and other expenses, our stem cell therapy protocol is more accessible than what you would have to pay for equivalent treatments with stem cells in the USA or Canada. So it’s worth it to get a vacation in Mexico while you receive treatments.

Every year, over 1 million tourists mainly from North America, Europe, and Asia undergo quality medical treatments that would cost twice or up to 5 times as much in their home countries. 

What type of stem cells do we use at our clinic?

At our stem cell clinic in Mexico, we use 100% ethically sourced human pluripotent mesenchymal stem cells derived from the healthy bone marrow of screened patients.

These types of stem cells are called pluripotent because they are the most powerful and versatile cells that can become any type of cell in the body: brain cell, heart cell, liver cell, bone cell, skin cell, muscle cell—whatever type of cell your body needs.  

Your doctor will review your lab work and current health condition to determine the best application technique and the right quantity and type of stem cells for your condition.

Is it safe to get stem cell therapy in Mexico?

Just as you would choose the most qualified surgeon to operate on you, you should endeavor to find a qualified doctor to administer your regenerative treatments. Every year, millions from all over the world travel to Mexico for dental surgery, plastic surgery, and many other specialized medical procedures for a fraction of the cost. Especially if you’re not familiar with the area, you’ll want to stay away from places close to the border, such as Tijuana.

At Alternative Medicine By Bars, our doctors and clinical team are committed to practicing safe medicine that is regulated by COFEPRIS, Mexico’s equivalent to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Our beautiful clinic is located in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, one of the safest and most prestigious and affluent cities of Mexico.

Is Alternative Medicine By Bars's stem cell therapy superior to the USA?

Thanks to the quality and quantity of cells transplanted, yes, our mesenchymal stem cell therapy is superior to therapies available in North America, hence why patients are traveling to Mexico to receive treatment.

  1. Quality of stem cells: our clinic and partners use international-caliber cellular expansion and cryopreservation techniques that yield mesenchymal stem cells that are about 10x more potent than others in North America. These procedures and our supplementary therapies ensure the stem cells from our clinic have a 94% viability rate for differentiation at the time our patients receive the cellular transplants.
  2. Quantity of stem cells: Thanks to these advanced procedures, you can receive up to 800 million mesenchymal stem cells in a single dose at our clinic! Which is 20x more than clinics in North America and other countries that can only provide upwards of 40 million stem cells. Because they have not yet adopted these international standards, those cells are typically of low viability rate, are from controversial sources, and are permitted in only a few cases.

In fact, beyond the Americas, there are many other countries in Europe, Asia, and Oceania that use these superior techniques for stem cell therapy. Our stem cell clinic in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico is more accessible for travel, price, and quality.
