Stem cell treatment for Degenerative disc disease
The term 'degenerative' suggests worsening over time, yet this isn't always the case with degenerative disc disease. Contrary to common belief, the back pain caused by this condition can improve over time. It's vital to understand that disc degeneration is a natural aging process, with the degree of degeneration varying among individuals. Stem cell research brings new hope in treating degenerative disc disease, offering strategies to halt further degeneration and potentially restore damaged discs. Transplanted stem cells have the unique ability to develop into disc cells and form new disc tissue, offering the possibility to reverse existing damage.

How does our stem cell treatment for degenerative disc disease work?
All our stem cell treatments in Istanbul are assessed and administered by specialists in the field, trained in the United States and Turkey, and not by general practitioners. We do this to ensure the highest level of precision, understanding of the condition and quality of treatment for our patients. We are 100% open and honest with our patients. Not everyone is eligible for our stem cell treatments.
We decline treatment for many patients after our specialist reviews their current health and medical history and determines that treatment is unsuitable. This avoids false promises or expectations when the risks outweigh the benefits. For this reason, and to ensure patient safety in all our treatments, each patient is assessed by the specialist before they can plan their treatment.
- Step 1.
Specialist assessment
For patients with Degenerative Disc Disease, our specialist will need to know the patient's age and previous medical treatments. In addition, he will need to review the test results you will be asked to provide.
- Step 2.
Free telephone consultation with the specialist
Once the specialist has reviewed the medical records and confirmed your suitability, we will present treatment options and pricing. We also offer a free telephone consultation to discuss your questions and concerns.
- Step 3.
Stem cell preparation
Once you decide to undergo our treatment, we will send a deposit invoice to begin the process of stem cell preparation so that it is ready for your planned treatment. This process can take 5-10 days, depending on current demand and availability.
- Step 4.
Treatment day
On the day of treatment you can choose to come to our hospital location or use our free transportation to and from our clinic in Istanbul. Our driver will pick you up at your desired location and accompany you to our clinic, where the specialist will administer the treatment, and then take you safely back.
- Step 5.
Follow-up care
Our follow-up specialist will contact you according to our follow-up schedule to ensure you have all the resources you need for maximum benefits. Your well-being and satisfaction are our top priority.
Frequently asked questions
How much does treatment cost, and what is included?
Costs depend on your assessment and the proposed treatment plan. Request an itemised quotation before making a decision.
The existing treatment information includes transport to and from the clinic, specialist treatment, a personal contact and follow-up. Confirm the exact arrangements in your quotation.
Before booking, request a written quotation covering treatment, tests, transport and follow-up. Confirm whether travel, accommodation, extra sessions and additional care are included. Insurance reimbursement is not automatic; check this with your insurer in advance.
How is my suitability assessed?
Medical assessment comes before treatment planning. Share your diagnosis, current symptoms, medication, previous treatments and available test results. The specialist considers potential benefits, risks and alternatives. Further assessment may be needed, and treatment may not be appropriate.
Can stem cell therapy cure my Degenerative Disc Disease?
An improvement in symptoms is different from a cure. Whether stem cell therapy is a reasonable option for you depends on your diagnosis, previous treatment and the evidence for the proposed protocol. Discuss realistic goals and how progress would be measured; an individual outcome cannot be guaranteed.
Discuss pain, mobility and activity tolerance separately. Less pain does not automatically mean that cartilage, a tendon or other tissue has demonstrably regenerated.
Which risks and side effects should I discuss?
Risks depend on the cell product, the administration method and your health. Ask the doctor to explain possible side effects and complications, how they would be managed and whom to contact after returning home. Injections and infusions are not risk-free.
