Stem cell treatment for Golfer's elbow or tennis elbow
Golfer's elbow and tennis elbow are conditions that occur due to overuse of the forearm and elbow muscles. This strain can lead to pain and discomfort in the area around the elbow, which is often caused by repetitive movements or activities. These conditions can affect people of different ages and have significant consequences for their daily lives. Our treatment for golfer's elbow and tennis elbow involves an individualized approach aimed at reducing pain and restoring functionality to the affected area. This can lead to an improvement in your overall well-being and quality of life.
How is our stem cell treatment for Golfer's elbow or tennis elbow performed in Istanbul?
At Istanbul Stamcel, we use mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from umbilical cord tissue, including Wharton’s jelly, and exosomes derived from these MSCs. For golfer’s or tennis elbow, the specialist discusses a treatment plan involving ultrasound-guided injections into the affected area and intravenous administration, tailored to your situation. The aim is to support the tendon’s repair processes. PRP is a separate treatment using platelet-rich plasma from your own blood; it is not a stem cell product.

Discuss your situationHow does our stem cell treatment for golfer’s elbow or tennis elbow 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 solely 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 Golfer's Elbow or Tennis Elbow, 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.

Let’s get acquainted
What should I prepare for the consultation?
Write down your main symptoms and goals, and list your medication and previous treatments. Have recent medical reports available. During the initial contact, we can clarify which documents are needed and how to share them securely.
What results can I expect?
Potential outcomes vary between people and treatment protocols. Your assessment should cover specific goals, the available research and the remaining uncertainties. Agree on when and how results will be assessed. Another patient’s experience cannot reliably predict your own outcome.
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.
