Frequently Asked Questions
Clear starting points for a more specific conversation with the clinical team.
Is regenerative medicine the same as stem cells?
Stem-cell approaches are one part of a broader set that can also include PRP, BMAC, A2M, exosomes, and prolotherapy.
Will I know which treatment I need before the visit?
Not necessarily. Imaging, exam findings, and goals guide which biologic—if any—is appropriate.
How soon do results appear?
Timelines vary by treatment and condition. Your clinician will set expectations for your situation.
Are these treatments surgical?
Most regenerative options discussed here are injection- or clinic-based rather than open surgery.
