Top 5 Questions We Get About Regenerative Medicine in Hawaii

Written By Kaylee Lin

Wondering if Regenerative Medicine Is Right for You?

Regenerative medicine is transforming the way we treat joint and nerve pain without surgery or pain medications. But we know this approach can raise questions, especially if you're new to it. At NexGenEsis Healthcare in Honolulu, we hear these 5 questions all the time from our local patients.

1. What Exactly Is Regenerative Medicine?

Regenerative medicine focuses on stimulating your body’s natural healing abilities to repair damaged tissue, reduce inflammation, and restore function.

Rather than masking symptoms, it aims to repair the root cause of your pain—whether it’s from arthritis, injury, or nerve damage.

Common regenerative treatments include:

  • PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma)

  • BMAC (Bone Marrow Concentrate)

  • A2M therapy

  • Laser therapy and shockwave

2. What Conditions Can It Help With?

We treat a wide range of joint and nerve conditions, including:

  • Knee pain and arthritis

  • Shoulder injuries (like rotator cuff tears)

  • Hip degeneration

  • Neuropathy and nerve-related pain

  • Bone-on-bone arthritis

  • Lower back pain

If you've been told to “just live with the pain” or consider surgery, this may be your alternative.

3. Is It Safe?

Yes, these treatments are generally very safe. Most use your own blood or bone marrow, which reduces risk of reaction or rejection. We also follow strict medical protocols, and all procedures are done by licensed healthcare professionals specializing in regenerative care.

4. Is It Covered by Insurance?

Most regenerative medicine procedures are not covered by insurance, but many patients tell us it was worth every penny compared to ongoing surgeries, medications, or downtime. We offer flexible payment options to help make treatment accessible.

5. How Long Before I Feel Results?

Every body heals differently, but many patients start noticing improvements within 4 to 12 weeks—especially with proper movement and lifestyle support. That’s why our programs include guided exercise plans, check-ins, and wellness support for 12 months+.
