From first contact and paperwork to follow-up care back home
Quick answer
Thai guests planning stem cell care at Cellora should contact the clinic well in advance to secure an appointment, since it accepts a maximum of seven guests a day. Prepare your medical history, medication and supplement list and recent test results, confirm the timeline you must spend in Korea, and agree a follow-up channel before you travel.
Start by making contact and stating your goal clearly — resolving chronic fatigue, improving sleep, or anti-ageing focus — because different goals lead to different panels and programmes.
Second, prepare documents: recent health checks, blood results, a medication list using generic names, allergy history and surgical history. Translate Thai documents into English in advance.
Third, plan the time: the programme includes testing, waiting for results, cell preparation and treatment. Request a written timeline before booking flights and accommodation.
Fourth, prepare for language: ask whether interpretation or English documentation is available, because understanding the plan and its risks is a safety issue, not a convenience.
Fifth, plan continuity: request a written treatment summary, a list of what was administered and aftercare instructions so a Thai physician can continue care with full information.
On money: request an itemised quotation separating testing, treatment and follow-up costs, and ask the policy if the plan changes after results — this prevents misunderstandings later.
Visa and immigration requirements change, so verify with the Korean embassy or immigration authority before every trip, and ask whether the clinic can provide supporting documents if needed.
Wellness services and overseas cell therapy are generally outside standard policy coverage. Check the terms directly with your insurer before deciding.
