FAQs Literature Refs I wasn't sure what to expect when I first used the stem cells, so I was shocked to see how rapidly the new tendon tissue filled what was lacking there just 30 days prior. I have had my fair share of tendon problems, but nothing has been as dramatic as with the healing help of the stem cells. Hearsay is one thing, but it is hard to argue with results.
