Melanoma Treatment in Giostar Stem Cell Therapy | Los Algodones Clinic

About the clinic

Melanoma care at GIOSTAR Mexico in Los Algodones, Mexico, includes cancer-focused cellular immunotherapy and regenerative therapies. The initial consultation is free, while a stem cell program with one application may start around $8,500. The clinic has a COFEPRIS-authorized, in-house ISO Class 5/7 cell-processing laboratory.

Assessment and treatment planning

The team reviews medical records before travel and checks candidacy through a health history review. Clinical, genetic, and functional tests are available, with laboratory exams scheduled the day before the first application. Dr. Daniel Garza, the clinic’s medical director since 2016, leads physician-supervised care.

Cancer-focused cell therapies

Cellular immunotherapy (NK cell therapy): Natural killer cells are expanded and activated to help the immune system recognize cancer cells. The clinic offers this as a personalized option alongside standard oncology care and for patients in remission. The protocol and number of sessions follow medical evaluation. No melanoma-specific protocol or price is published.
Allogeneic mesenchymal stem cell therapy: Donor cells from adipose tissue or umbilical cord are given intravenously or locally. Donors are aged 18–22 and undergo cytotoxicity and oncogenicity testing. The lab protocol activates cells to direct them toward affected tissue.
Autologous mesenchymal stem cell therapy: This option uses cells collected from the patient’s own fat tissue or bone marrow.

Supportive therapies and program details

A stem cell protocol may include 1–4 vials, containing 35–140 million cells, and 1–10 billion exosomes. The clinic also offers a supportive program for patients who have completed conventional cancer treatment.

Included with the one-application program: Lodging in Los Algodones, local shuttle service, oxygen therapy, nutritional IV preparation, medical consultation, laboratory exams, and dietitian follow-up.
Other supportive options: Exosome therapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, nutritional consultation, and physical therapy in selected cases.

The clinic’s own lab handles cell preparation and storage, using cryopreservation that preserves up to 95% cell viability. Patients can request a consultation through Bookimed to discuss whether an available option fits their care plan.

We researched a few places to get Stem Cell treatments for our Autistic grandson, so glad we choose this one !!! From the transportation from the airport and rides to and from his treatments everything has been 10 * we did 2 treatment with a 3 day break and what an amazing experience it's been! Giostar is top notch, clean, friendly, we had a dietician call and email us a meal plan and will follow us for 9 months ! Once we see his results we would definitely come back ❤️

We travelled to Playa Del Carmen last week and I received Stem Cell Therapy for both shoulders. The clinic is "state of the art" and the staff were very professional. The first day I had blood work taken and had oxygen administered as well as IV infusion of vitamins. The next day I received the stem cell infusion via IV as well as injections in each of my shoulders which was basically painless, I now must wait two to three months to see the results of the procedure. Special thanks to Dr Cristina Santana, Medical Director and Dr Karla Talvera who is the resident surgeon. Can't recommend this enough!

What a great experience! From the start everyone took such great care of me. Always starts with the wonderful drivers getting me to and from my days. Then upon arrival calming my nerves, finding my baby veins on the first try and explaining every step as we went. Couldn't have asked for a better team of professionals.

My husband has had rheumatoid arthritis since the age of 5 and the past 3 years he had tried several biologicals that didn’t work. 7 months ago the chronic pain became unbearable and we started looking in stem cell therapy. After months of research we decided to make our way to Giostar in Playa del Carmen on a leap of faith! Not knowing what to expect we were blown away with the care he received there. Once we arrived at Giostar our worries were eliminated! Dr. Cristina was a God send. While she couldn’t promise a miracle she told Rick she would do every thing in her power to help him. The staff was unbelievable. Edmund greeted us everyday with a smile on his face and asked if we wanted anything to eat or drink making us feel at home. It was great talking to him while my husband was busy. Ruby our nutritionist was very knowledgeable and luckily we had been following the Mediterranean diet for some time and answered so many questions about supplements and such to be taken. Our driver for most of the time, Alfredo was with us the whole week. We dearly enjoyed his company everyday and looked forward to seeing him. He really helped us through some difficult and happy times! He is literally one of the kindest men we have ever met in our lives and he will forever hold a special place in our hearts. We did receive a miracle here. My husband after 2 months has gone from a pain level of 11 to having normal aches after his physical therapy sessions. We have been taking long hikes together which would have never happened before this trip to Mexico! We look forward to helping others get the care they need here! Truly a time in our lives we will Never forget and we are internally grateful to have our lives back! Thank you so much!

I went for stem cell therapy for als here. The staff was excellent ! Dr.Santana gave us excellent info on the procedure and what it can do. The nurses Alma and Alejandro were gentle and terrific ! I was also very fortunate to have the best anesthesiologist ! I was nervous about the intrathecal injection. But there was NO pain. I didn’t feel a damn thing!! I have notice more mobility in me, more strength! Many thanks to the playa de Carmen !!
