What is arthritis
and when does this treatment fit?
With arthritis, a joint is inflamed. Signs to watch for: pain while resting and at night, morning stiffness lasting more than half an hour, swelling, redness and warmth over the joint. There are several causes — autoimmune conditions (rheumatoid, psoriatic arthritis), gout, infection or an injury from the past.
Reducing inflammation and pain and supporting the tissues in the joint is what PRP and SVF can offer — not a replacement for rheumatology care of a systemic disease. With an active joint infection or a severe flare the procedure waits: first the doctor confirms the arthritis type and selects the moment.

Methods we use
Cell therapy (SVF) from your own adipose tissue
The stromal vascular fraction (SVF) — a blend of cells involved in repairing tissue — is isolated by processing a small sample of your adipose tissue. Mixed with your own plasma, it goes into the affected joint by injection.
In inflammatory arthritis, after the acute flare has passed, it is chosen for how it acts on local inflammation and tissue repair.
PRP — platelet-rich plasma from your own blood
Your blood, in a small amount, provides plasma rich in platelets and growth factors; injected into the joint, it helps ease inflammation and creates better conditions for repair of the tissues.
Recommended in some cases of rheumatoid and other inflammatory arthritis, it is one part of a broader treatment plan.
How the procedure goes: step by step
Consultation and scan review
If you already have scans, send them before the visit: the doctor examines the joint, reviews your X-rays, MRI or ultrasound and decides whether the procedure suits you.
Blood sample for PRP
Only a small amount of venous blood is taken; it is later used to prepare platelet-rich plasma with growth factors.
The doctor tells you in advance which tests are needed.
Adipose tissue sample
A puncture on the abdomen or inner thigh, local anaesthetic and about 30 ml of adipose tissue taken — the site needs no stitches.
Processing in a centrifuge
The sample is placed in a centrifuge, where it splits into layers. From these the stromal vascular fraction is isolated and combined with the platelet-rich plasma.
The whole procedure is done in one day.
Injection into the joint
Direct injection into the affected joint under ultrasound guidance helps the prepared material land exactly where it is needed.
Follow-up
No crutches and no hospital stay. The doctor stays in touch after the procedure and follows how the joint responds.

Follow-up visits
Follow-up visits let the doctor see how the joint responds and adjust the plan — pain usually eases over the first month, mobility improves over about three months, and the full effect develops over around six months.

After the procedure
Most patients return home the same day and to normal activity within a day or two; small dressings are put over the puncture sites. The first week may bring slightly more aching in the joint, which is an expected reaction. During the first month the pain tends to ease, during about three months mobility and activity improve, and over around six months the full effect develops. How long it lasts depends on the person — the stage of the condition, body weight, activity and other factors — so a fixed result cannot be promised by anyone. Do not stop medication prescribed by your rheumatologist without talking to them first.

Joint treatment: frequently asked questions
What is arthritis and what are its symptoms?
An inflammatory disease of the joints, arthritis typically causes resting and night-time pain, morning stiffness beyond 30 minutes, swelling, redness and warmth. Causes range from autoimmune conditions, for example rheumatoid arthritis, to infections, gout and psoriasis.
Can PRP help with rheumatoid arthritis?
PRP may help with local inflammation, pain and swelling in rheumatoid and other inflammatory arthritis. The platelets release growth factors that affect tissue repair and the immune response. Your rheumatologist's treatment stays in place — PRP complements it and does not replace it.
Can psoriatic arthritis be cured?
Psoriatic arthritis is chronic and, for now, cannot be cured completely. Treatment therefore aims at long remission, controlling inflammation and preventing the joints from deforming. Regenerative injections may be one part of that plan.
How does SVF work in autoimmune arthritis?
The cells SVF contains can modulate local immunity and support repair of damaged tissue inside the joint. With research in this area ongoing, your doctor will discuss what is realistic to expect for your type of arthritis.
When is the treatment not suitable?
The procedure is not performed during an active joint infection, a severe flare, pregnancy, cancer or blood clotting disorders; in such cases the doctor postpones it or suggests another option.
How is knee arthritis different from osteoarthritis?
Knee arthritis is an inflammation, driven by an autoimmune reaction, infection or gout, that shows as redness, warmth, marked swelling and tenderness to the touch. Osteoarthritis means worn cartilage and usually presents as aching pain and a dry crunch on movement.
Why does an arthritic joint hurt even at rest?
PRP, SVF and other treatment aimed at reducing inflammation can ease this pain, because inflammation keeps stimulating the joint's pain receptors all the time — at rest, on movement and at night.
Can joint injections be done during pregnancy?
No. Joint injections — PRP and SVF too — are not given in pregnancy, as it is a contraindication. A rheumatologist and an obstetrician decide on arthritis treatment during pregnancy together.
Can I get a second opinion on my tests and scans?
Yes. A doctor will review your X-rays, MRI, ultrasound or blood test results free of charge and tell you if regenerative treatment could suit your type of arthritis — just send them.
What happens if rheumatoid arthritis is not treated?
Without treatment, it may lead to lasting deformity of the joint, loss of function, osteoporosis and harm to internal organs such as the kidneys, lungs and heart. Treating it in time prevents these complications.
