This 15-day experimental protocol aims to preserve the body's remaining insulin-producing cells. It is led by Prof. Dr. Erdal Karaöz. He has performed over 1,100 cellular treatments in his 50-year career. The therapy uses cells from a licensed, GMP-standard laboratory for safety.

The treatment typically ranges from $24,000 to $36,000. The package is designed for convenience and comprehensive care.
