| Kardashian Flies to Mexico for "Game-Changer" Stem Cell Treatment |
Kim Kardashian has once again made headlines, this time for a medical journey that took her and her sister Khloé to Mexico to undergo a stem cell treatment not available in the United States. The reality star and entrepreneur, 44, shared the details of her "stem cell journey" on her Instagram account, praising the procedure for providing her with profound relief from years of chronic pain.
According to Kardashian's posts, the treatment, which uses "Dezawa Muse" cells, was a "game-changer" for both a shoulder injury she sustained two years ago while weightlifting and long-term back pain. The therapy was performed by Dr. Adeel Khan at the Eterna clinic in Los Cabos, Mexico.
Kardashian recounted her experience, stating that after her shoulder injury, she tried numerous treatments in the U.S. without success. She found relief after her first stem cell treatment with Dr. Khan, regaining full range of motion and feeling "completely normal." Encouraged by this success, she recently returned to the clinic to address her back pain, which she described as "unbearable." She shared photos of herself at the clinic, including one with Khloé and Dr. Khan, and others showing what appeared to be blood on her back from the procedure.
The specific type of stem cell therapy Kardashian received is not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for general use, which is why she had to travel abroad for the procedure. The FDA has approved some stem cell uses, primarily for blood-forming cells to treat blood disorders, but many other therapies remain experimental and face regulatory scrutiny due to safety concerns and a lack of long-term data.
Kardashian's social media post, while intended to share her positive experience, has also sparked a debate about the accessibility and cost of such treatments. Commenters on her post pointed out the privilege required to travel internationally for an expensive and unapproved medical procedure. The cost of such a procedure can range from thousands to tens of thousands of dollars, a barrier that puts it out of reach for most people.
While acknowledging her own privilege, Kardashian expressed hope that scientific advancements will eventually make these treatments more widely available. She advised her followers to do their own research and consult with medical professionals before considering similar therapies.
