Stem Cell Therapy for Diabetes Complications in Seoul

Nanoori Stem Cell Center, Gangnam

Diabetes can affect nerves, blood flow, joints, tendons, and wound healing. You may have seen claims about stem cell therapy for diabetic complications. At Nanoori Stem Cell Center, our core expertise is orthopedic regenerative care. For diabetes-related complications, cell therapy remains investigational and is not a routine service. We focus on safe, hospital-based evaluation, musculoskeletal optimization, and coordinated care with endocrinology, vascular surgery, wound care, and podiatry partners.


Straight talk: We do not offer unregulated “IV stem cell” drips. Any cell-based therapy for diabetic complications must be within approved clinical protocols via the appropriate specialty team.

Who This Is For

  • Adults with diabetes who have joint/tendon pain limiting activity
  • Patients with early foot/ankle problems (stiffness, tendon pain, mild instability) impacting mobility
  • Individuals seeking evidence-based care first, with honest guidance about research options
  • International patients who want coordinated hospital care in Gangnam

What We Do (at Nanoori, case-by-case)

  • Orthopedic evaluation & imaging: Identify pain generators (knee/hip/foot/ankle/spine) that restrict healthy activity.
  • Regenerative orthopedics (when appropriate): Targeted, autologous musculoskeletal procedures for joints/tendons/ligaments—not systemic complications.
  • Mobility & strength program: Gait training, joint unloading, footwear/orthotics, and load management to protect feet and joints.
  • Care coordination: Fast referrals to endocrinology (glucose control/meds), vascular (circulation), wound clinic (ulcer care), podiatry (off-loading, callus/ulcer prevention), and neurology (neuropathy assessment).
  • Wellness supports (non-cell): Sleep, nutrition basics, graded activity; optional wellness IV (non-cell) after screening.

What We Do Not Offer

  • No “stem cell cures” for diabetes
  • No unregulated IV infusions or non-standard injections for neuropathy, nephropathy, or retinopathy
  • No replacement for glucose, blood-pressure, lipid, or antiplatelet management

Your Care Pathway

  1. Screening & Goal-Setting – History, meds, HbA1c and comorbidity review (bring recent labs), foot risk check.
  2. Orthopedic Plan – Address joint/tendon pain to enable safe walking and exercise.
  3. Specialty Coordination – Endocrine/vascular/wound/podiatry consults as indicated; footwear/off-loading plan.
  4. Follow-Up & Prevention – Mobility milestones, skin/foot checks, recurrence prevention, and travel-safe instructions for visitors.

Safety & Considerations

  • Hospital standards, sterile workflow, and doctor-supervised care
  • For active foot ulcers, infection, fever, or poor circulation, urgent specialty care comes first
  • Outcomes depend on glucose control, footwear, weight, and program adherence

FAQ

Can stem cells reverse diabetes?
No. Diabetes management relies on medication, lifestyle, and specialist care. Cell therapy for complications remains research-only.

Do you inject stem cells into diabetic nerves or vessels?
No. We don’t perform unapproved systemic or neurovascular cell procedures. We treat musculoskeletal issues and coordinate appropriate specialty care.

Can I start while visiting Seoul?
Yes. We can evaluate, initiate an orthopedic plan, and coordinate specialty appointments with clear at-home guidance.
