Introduction

In recent years, advancements in the field of regenerative medicine have opened new avenues for treating various conditions, with stem cell therapy and steroid injections emerging as two of the most viable options to treat knee osteoarthritis.1 In this blog post we will delve into a scientific comparison of these two approaches, focusing on their benefits, and shedding light on the availability and affordability of such treatments, particularly at Novastem in Tijuana.

Stem Cell Therapy

Stem cell therapy represents a cutting-edge medical intervention that harnesses the regenerative potential of stem cells. Scientific studies have highlighted its efficacy in promoting tissue repair, reducing inflammation, and modulating the immune system. Stem cell injections offer a promising alternative to traditional treatments.

Benefits of Stem Cell Therapy

  • Regenerative Potential: Stem cells possess the unique ability to differentiate into various cell types, facilitating tissue repair and regeneration.2
  • Anti-Inflammatory Effects: Studies indicate that stem cell therapy can significantly reduce inflammation, providing relief to individuals suffering from inflammatory conditions.3
  • Immunomodulation: Stem cells play a crucial role in modulating the immune response, potentially addressing autoimmune disorders.4
  • Minimal Side Effects: Unlike some traditional treatments, stem cell therapy has demonstrated a favorable safety profile with minimal side effects.5

You might be wondering, what are platelet-rich plasma injections?

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a therapy that uses injections of a concentrate of a patient’s own platelets to accelerate the healing of injured tendons, ligaments, muscles, and joints. 

In this way, PRP injections use the patient’s own healing system to improve their condition, so it is a safe therapy that helps patients with musculoskeletal problems. (2). 

This treatment is highly recommended to patients with any kind of injuries derived from accidents, strong trauma or sports.

The treatment is safe and there are no adverse reactions, this gives the body the extra help that is required to heal the injuries that sometimes the body can’t heal by itself.
