Team prep
Your case is reviewed by the specialist physician who will perform your procedure. Cell type, dose, and delivery route are decided around your specific diagnosis — never from a template.
Every protocol below is a starting point, not a sales offer. The cell type, dose, and delivery route are decisions made after the specialist physician reviews your case. Many protocols use Muse™ cells — a stress-enduring, pluripotent subpopulation of mesenchymal stem cells. Learn about Muse cells →

We treat your right knee, left knee, or both.
Cells are injected directly into the knee to calm inflammation, support cartilage, and ease the everyday movements that hurt first — stairs, kneeling, getting in and out of a chair.
We treat your right hip, left hip, or both — including the joint itself and the bone within.
Used for hip osteoarthritis and avascular necrosis (AVN). The goal is to reduce stiffness, protect the joint surface, and delay or avoid replacement surgery.
We treat the main shoulder joint, the AC joint at the top of the shoulder, and the SC joint near the collarbone — on either side.
Helpful for rotator-cuff injury, early arthritis, and persistent shoulder pain that limits reach, sleep position, or overhead movement.
We treat your right ankle, left ankle, or both.
Used for ankle arthritis, old sprains that never fully healed, and cartilage damage (OCD lesions) — to restore stability and reduce the daily pain that comes with every step.
We treat the neck (cervical), mid-back (thoracic), and lower back (lumbar) — including the small facet joints that run alongside the spine.
Cells are delivered into discs, facet joints, or the epidural space, depending on whether your pain comes from disc degeneration, joint inflammation, or pinched nerves (radiculopathy).
We treat the sacroiliac joints — where your lower spine meets the pelvis — one side or both.
Often the hidden cause of low-back, hip, or buttock pain that travels down the leg. Direct injection calms inflammation and restores comfortable movement.
We treat the jaw joint on one side or both.
Helpful for clicking, locking, chronic jaw pain, and disc problems that make eating, speaking, or even smiling uncomfortable.
We treat the wrist, the knuckle joints (MCP and PIP), and the thumb's base joint (CMC) — on either hand.
For arthritis in the small joints, thumb pain that makes pinching and gripping difficult, and tendon irritation like De Quervain's. The goal is to keep your hands strong for the things you do every day.
We treat one or both elbows.
Used for tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, and arthritis — to calm tendon inflammation and restore the pain-free bend and grip you've been missing.
We treat the forefoot joints, the big-toe joint, and the plantar fascia along the bottom of the foot.
Helpful for big-toe arthritis (hallux rigidus), plantar fasciitis, and the chronic foot pain that quietly changes how you walk and stand.
We treat the full face, under-eye area, neck, décolleté, and the backs of the hands.
A regenerative approach to texture, fine lines, and overall radiance — working with your skin's own repair signals instead of adding volume or freezing muscles.
We treat the crown, hairline, beard, and eyebrows.
Stimulates dormant follicles to support thicker growth and slow further loss. Best for early-to-moderate thinning — not a substitute for transplant once follicles are gone.
We treat acne scarring, stretch marks, burn scars, and surgical scars.
Regenerative signals are delivered into the damaged skin layers to remodel scar tissue and soften the look of indents, marks, and uneven tone over a series of sessions.
Whole-body protocols supporting energy, sleep, sexual wellness, and graceful aging.
Delivered intravenously to address systemic inflammation and cellular aging — for people who already feel well, but want to feel sharper, recover faster, and age on their own terms.
For rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and Sjögren's.
MSCs help recalibrate an overactive immune system — easing joint pain, swelling, and morning stiffness, and often reducing reliance on long-term immunosuppressants.
For lupus (SLE), scleroderma, psoriasis, and severe eczema.
Targets the immune-driven inflammation behind skin and connective-tissue flares — often improving both how things look on the surface and what the labs show underneath.
For Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, IBS-D, and post-celiac inflammation.
Helps restore the gut lining and quiet the immune response that drives chronic GI symptoms — bloating, urgency, pain, and the fatigue that comes with malabsorption.
For Hashimoto's thyroiditis, Graves' disease, type 1 diabetes, and chronic fatigue.
Used to calm autoimmune attacks on endocrine glands and support metabolic recovery. Works best alongside your endocrinology care, not in place of it.
For recovery from ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, and for vascular dementia.
Best started within the first months after the event. Cells support neuroplasticity and circulation in the brain tissue around the injury — working alongside, not replacing, physical and speech rehab.
For Parkinson's, ALS, multiple sclerosis, and early Alzheimer's or mild cognitive impairment (MCI).
The aim is to slow progression and reduce neuroinflammation. A realistic goal is preservation of function — not reversal — and earlier intervention tends to help most.
For spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, concussion aftereffects, and post-surgical recovery.
Combines IV and intrathecal (spinal fluid) delivery to support nerve repair and reduce the chronic inflammation that lingers long after the initial injury heals.
For diabetic and chemotherapy-induced neuropathy, idiopathic neuropathy, and complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS).
Targets damaged peripheral nerves to restore sensation and reduce the burning, tingling, or chronic pain that standard medications often can't fully reach.
No two patients arrive with the same case — so no two protocols leave our clinic identical. Here is how a TrueCell treatment moves from your first conversation to your last follow-up call.
Your case is reviewed by the specialist physician who will perform your procedure. Cell type, dose, and delivery route are decided around your specific diagnosis — never from a template.
A written protocol is built for your case: cell line, viable cell count, route of administration, and any adjuncts. You see it before you board the plane.
Your cells are prepared at GenNova Labs in Guadalajara — an accredited Mexican cell bank — and flown to Tijuana the morning of your procedure. Never frozen on a shelf.
Every procedure is delivered by a dedicated three-person team assigned to your case: the specialist physician, a nurse, and an anesthesiologist on standby for comfort or pain response. Not shared, not rotating.
1–3 days of post-treatment monitoring at your accommodation, then 24/7 reachability with your case manager and the TrueCell team for three full years.
Stem-cell therapy is not the right answer for everyone, and we say so out loud. We turn down candidates whose imaging suggests structural damage past what cells can address — cases where joint replacement or another surgical option will serve them better. We do not treat patients with active malignancy, untreated systemic infection, or uncontrolled coagulopathy.
If we don't believe we can help, we tell you on the consultation call — and where we can, we point you toward the specialist who can. Honest "no" answers are how the "yes" earns its weight.

+1 858-988-5257Tijuana, Mexico — twenty minutes from San Diego International.
Av. Pacifico 951Private pickup from SAN. We coordinate lodging and aftercare.
If your question isn't here, our concierge will reply within one business day — no forms, no chase.
Submit the consultation form with your imaging and history. Our concierge confirms a time within one business day; the consult itself is complimentary and conducted by a board-certified physician.
Single-joint UC-MSC protocols typically begin in the mid-five-figure range; high-dose IV and multi-joint packages are quoted on the consult call once your physician has confirmed the plan. We provide an itemized quote before anything is scheduled.
Most patients see meaningful improvement from a single visit. Some indications — chronic autoimmune, advanced OA — benefit from a booster at 9–12 months. Your physician will share the expected trajectory during consultation.
Yes. Multi-joint and articular-plus-systemic combinations are common and often more efficient. See our multi-joint packages for typical pairings; custom combinations are quoted on consult.
Twenty minutes from San Diego International. We arrange private transfer, English-fluent escort, and a curated recovery suite. Most patients need 2–4 nights for a single protocol; multi-joint visits 4–7 nights.
By indication, severity, imaging, and patient size — not by tier. UC-MSC dosing typically ranges from 20M (early OA) to 100M+ (AVN, high-dose systemic). Your physician documents the rationale on your protocol sheet.
No legitimate regenerative practice will guarantee outcomes. We share aggregate response rates honestly: 84% pain reduction at 6 months, 92% sustained at 12 months. We will tell you if your case is unlikely to respond before you book.
Physician consultation, cell preparation, in-clinic procedure, recovery suite, and structured follow-up at 2, 6, and 12 weeks. Travel and lodging are arranged separately by concierge at preferred rates.
