As the leader in stem cell therapy in Phoenix and Scottsdale metro for the past decade, R3 Stem Cell is in the best position to guide patients on these questions. With over 45 locations in 6 countries, R3 also knows very well how this compares to other countries too!

First off, let’s talk about the biologics used. They are definitely NOT the same from clinic to clinic! For example, many clinics use an off the shelf, radiated product that only has growth factors. The cost of “stem cell therapy” may be cheap at these clinics, maybe even under $1000.

But it’s definitely not a stem cell product, as they don’t survive long at room temperature. So best to avoid these clinics as they are mislabeling their procedures.

The other clinics to avoid are the ones who are offering a “stem cell therapy” with a very low cost, when it’s actually platelet rich plasma therapy! We’ve seen this many times both in the USA and internationally, where clinics advertise a stem cell procedure that involves taking your own blood and spinning it, then injecting it.

That’s not a stem cell procedure! That’s PRP therapy, and while it may help your joints/soft tissues there are VERY FEW if any stem cells involved.

So you need to keep that in mind when figuring out, what is the cost of stem cell therapy in Phoenix, Scottsdale, Chandler, Mesa, Surprise and surrounding areas? When R3 Stem Cell began in 2012, the cost of stem cell therapy was much higher that it is now. We routinely saw clinics charging $7000 per injection. Wow!

Unfortunately, there are still a LOT of clinics who think it’s appropriate to continue that type of price gouging. Not only that, they are using a biologic that is low quality and will not last patients a long time.
