Before considering an artificial joint, don’t hesitate to reach out to us to learn about Stem Cell Treatment.
Consider Stem Cell Treatment as an alternative to ongoing hyaluronic acid injections.
Stem Cell Treatment requires no complicated surgery, involves fewer hospital visits, making it ideal for the elderly.
Stem cells help reduce joint inflammation, promote cartilage repair and regeneration, and can potentially restore joint structures while alleviating pain. They are also effective in healing damaged ligaments and muscles, which is why top athletes worldwide are seeking this treatment.
The "components" secreted by stem cells have regenerative and repairing effects similar to those of the stem cells themselves. These components are much smaller in size, allowing them to reach deeper areas of the body and promote tissue regeneration more effectively.
A license is required to provide regenerative medicine In order to provide regenerative medicine, based on the Act on Ensuring the Safety of Regenerative Medicine, a specific authorized regenerative medicine committee has It must be reviewed by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare and accepted by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare. Artisan Clinic Hibiya is a medical institution that has been accepted by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare for a provision plan for knee joint stem cell administration.
Regenerative medicine promotes recovery by using the body’s own cells to heal tissues and organs damaged by disease. Stem cells, responsible for tissue development and regeneration, can replenish somatic cells that decline with age, making them a key component in regenerative medicine.
At Artisan Clinic Hibiya, we culture the patient's own stem cells in a state-of-the-art laboratory, adhering to strict hygiene standards, and administer them directly to the knee joint for effective treatment.

Skin sampling is done under local anesthesia, similar to a dental procedure. The skin collected is about 5 mm, and after a month, it becomes almost unnoticeable you can't even tell where it was taken.
The effectiveness of stem cell therapy can vary significantly between individuals, but a general guideline is that results may be seen within 3 to 6 months.
The generally recommended number of cells for knee treatment is around 100 million. In many regenerative medicine clinics in Japan, the typical range is between 20 million to 100 million per knee. Artisan Clinic Hibiya uses 100 million cells per knee for optimal results.
Stem cells are distributed throughout the body. While adipose (fat) tissue has traditionally been known for its high concentration of stem cells, advancements in cultivation technology now allow for equal or even greater stem cell yields from skin and subcutaneous fat. Recognizing that patients may be hesitant about liposuction, our clinic instead collects stem cells from subcutaneous fat under the skin.
Under the Regenerative Medicine Safety Assurance Act, treatments that undergo review and approval by a third-party committee are accepted by the Ministry of Health, Labor, and Welfare.
