Qualifications

With 3,000+ stem cell cases personally managed across approximately 20 countries, Dr. Yuichi Wakabayashi leads regenerative medicine at the clinic in Osaka with an unusually hands-on workflow. The international process is structured to start before travel: patients submit medical history via email or WhatsApp, then Dr. Wakabayashi personally reviews eligibility and expected protocol before a written reply is sent. He can communicate directly with international patients in English, and the clinic describes ongoing remote follow-up by WhatsApp or email after in-person visits. At the clinic, the treatment pathway is built around a staged timeline. On the first Osaka visit (1 day), patients undergo blood tests and a mini adipose tissue harvesting under local anesthesia (about 30 minutes). Stem cell cultivation then takes about 7 weeks at the clinic’s certified Cell Processing Center (CPC), where cells are expanded to 100–200 million and tested for viability (98%+ mentioned), with infectious-agent screening and a certificate of quality. The second Osaka visit (1 day) includes cultured stem cell infusion via IV or targeted injection, followed by remote follow-up at set intervals.
