When considering regenerative medicine, one of the most common and important questions we hear is: “Are umbilical cord stem cells safe?”
At THE RE/ CLINIC, located in Sandy, Utah, we understand that safety is your top concern—especially if you’re considering traveling from out of state or even abroad to receive cutting-edge care. Whether you’re navigating chronic pain, recovering from injury, or simply looking to optimize your long-term wellness, we want you to feel confident, informed, and in control.
What Are Umbilical Cord Stem Cells—and Where Do They Come From?
Umbilical cord stem cells are mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from the Wharton’s Jelly of donated umbilical cords after healthy, full-term births. These tissues are donated voluntarily and ethically, with informed maternal consent, and would otherwise be discarded.
Unlike embryonic stem cells, no fetus is harmed or involved in any stage of collection. This makes them a widely accepted and ethically sound option in modern regenerative medicine.
Why Are They Used in Regenerative Medicine?
Umbilical cord stem cells are rich in growth factors, cytokines, and signaling molecules that support the repair and regeneration of damaged tissues.
Think of them as specialized repair crews:
Just as emergency responders rush to a disaster site, these cells migrate to areas of inflammation, degeneration, or injury—delivering regenerative support and calming immune responses.
They’re used in a wide range of conditions, from orthopedic injuries and arthritis to autoimmune conditions and anti-aging therapies.
How Is Safety Ensured?
Safety starts at the source. At THE RE/ CLINIC, all umbilical cord stem cell products are:
- Ethically sourced from U.S.-based, FDA-registered tissue banks
- Screened for infectious diseases (including HIV, Hepatitis B & C, syphilis, CMV, and more)
- Processed in GMP-compliant, ISO-certified labs
- Tested for viability, sterility, and potency before ever reaching a patient
This rigorous quality control ensures each product meets the highest safety standards in the U.S.
Additionally, treatments at THE RE/ CLINIC are performed under the supervision of experienced clinicians who follow strict protocols and prioritize patient monitoring and personalized care.
