  • Why is Auragens in Panama when there are stem cell clinics in the US?

    The treatment capabilities are vastly different than what can be done in the US. We administer umbilical cord stem cells (hUC-MSCs) which are brand-new, pristine cells that have not been exposed to genetic defect, environmental toxins or aging. They are at full capacity in terms of their ability to regenerate. We maintain a sterile environment and ISO laboratory throughout the life cycle of the procedure and do not perform same day procedures so the risk of a bacterial infection is minimized. We customize the cells with optimized surface markers that provide specific individualized therapeutic benefit to the condition of the patient. We can expand a targeted single cell lineage into millions of identical cell types. We concentrate dosing, guarantee viability and provide data sheets that show the exact cell count, type and quality. We use Flow Cytometry and 2D & 3D culture techniques to identify the highest quality cells and contain them in the same environment for optimal growth. We also can treat for a variety of conditions such as autoimmune disease, pulmonary disease, cardiovascular disease, neurological disorder and autism which are not currently approved in the US.

  • What makes Auragens different than other international “stem cell clinics?”

    Auragens is a destination treatment and wellness center that goes far beyond the scope of traditional stem cell clinics. They take a holistic approach to healing and incorporate the “triangle of homeostasis” method where the mental, physical, and nutritional aspects of the treatment are curated to balance the self. Our medicine is the best in the world and we take tremendous pride in our treatment enhancement offerings and hosted experiences in Panama.

  • When will I see the results of the treatments?

    Timing of results varies by patient and it is important to speak with your Auragens doctors regarding possible outcomes. Some patients will report significant results during their time, while others may not see results for several weeks following treatment. It is impossible to guarantee the exact timing of results or if they will occur at all, as age, diet and lifestyle play a major role in treatment efficacy.

  • Is this treatment approved by the FDA?

    Stem Cell treatment is not governed by the FDA since we are located outside of the United States. Regardless, we operate under Title 21 of the United States Code of Federal Regulations regarding CGMP (Continued Good Manufacturing Practices) and GTP (Good Tissue Practice).

  • Are the procedures safe?

    Yes. The type of treatments we offer do not illicit an immune response from the body, therefore has an extremely low risk of any type of complications. Our cells are health tested to the highest level of scientific scrutiny by our medical staff before they are administered.

  • Where do the stem cells come from?

    Auragens is partnered with local hospitals in Panama and our stem cells are donated by healthy mothers giving birth via caesarian section. Both the mother and the cord itself undergo a series of tests by our medical staff to ensure safety and quality.

  • Are pharmaceutical drugs involved in the treatments?

    No, our treatments are completely non-pharmaceutical.

  • Can I bring a friend or family member?

    Absolutely! We offer travel partners a Companion Experience. Please ask your Patient Experience Executive for more information.

  • How far is the Treatment Center from the airport and hotel?

    Auragens is 25 minutes away from the airport.

  • Are Life Stem Cell treatments covered by insurance?

    Treatments are not covered by insurance and payment is due prior to service.
