What is arthritis
and when does this treatment fit?
Arthritis refers to inflammation within a joint. Typical complaints are resting and night-time pain, morning stiffness beyond half an hour, swelling, redness and warmth. It may be driven by autoimmune disease like rheumatoid or psoriatic arthritis, by gout, by an infection or by a former injury.
PRP and SVF may help ease inflammation and pain and support the tissues within the joint, yet they are no substitute for a rheumatologist's care of a systemic disease. We do not carry out the procedure during an active joint infection or a severe flare — the doctor first confirms which arthritis you have and picks the right moment.

Methods we use
Cell therapy (SVF) from your own adipose tissue
We take a small sample of your adipose tissue and process it to isolate the stromal vascular fraction (SVF), a mix of cells that take part in tissue repair. It is then combined with your own plasma and injected into the affected joint.
Once the acute flare has settled, it is used in inflammatory arthritis for its effect on tissue repair and local inflammation.
PRP — platelet-rich plasma from your own blood
Separated from a small volume of your blood, plasma rich in platelets and growth factors is injected into the joint to help calm inflammation and create better conditions for tissue repair.
In rheumatoid and other inflammatory arthritis, the doctor may recommend it as one piece of the overall treatment plan.
How the procedure goes: step by step
Consultation and scan review
After examining the joint and reviewing your X-rays, MRI or ultrasound, the doctor decides whether the procedure is right for you. Scans you already have can be sent ahead of the visit.
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
The doctor numbs the area with local anaesthetic and takes about 30 ml of adipose tissue through a puncture on the abdomen or inner thigh; stitches are not needed.
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
Under ultrasound guidance, which helps with precise placement, the prepared material is injected straight into the affected joint.
Follow-up
Crutches and a hospital stay are not needed. The doctor keeps in contact afterwards and monitors how the joint is responding.

Follow-up visits
Follow-up visits allow the doctor to track the joint's response and fine-tune the plan: pain generally eases over the first month, mobility improves in about three months, and the full effect develops over roughly six months.

After the procedure
Most people go home the same day and return to normal daily activity within a day or two; the puncture sites are covered with small dressings. During the first week the joint may ache a little more — this is an expected reaction. Over the first month the pain usually eases, over about three months mobility and activity improve, and the full effect develops over around six months. How long it lasts differs from person to person and depends on the stage of the condition, body weight, activity and other factors — no one can promise a fixed result. If you are being treated by a rheumatologist, do not stop your prescribed medication without talking to them.

Joint treatment: frequently asked questions
What is arthritis and what are its symptoms?
Arthritis is an inflammatory disease of the joints. Typical signs are pain at rest and at night, morning stiffness lasting more than 30 minutes, swelling, redness and warmth over the joint. Causes include autoimmune conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, infections, gout and psoriasis.
Can PRP help with rheumatoid arthritis?
In inflammatory arthritis, rheumatoid included, PRP may help cut local inflammation, pain and swelling. Growth factors released by the platelets shape the immune response and support tissue repair. It is a complement to, not a substitute for, your rheumatologist's treatment.
Can psoriatic arthritis be cured?
As a chronic disease, psoriatic arthritis cannot yet be cured completely; treatment works towards long remission, controlled inflammation and prevention of joint deformity. Regenerative injections can be part of that plan.
How does SVF work in autoimmune arthritis?
SVF includes cells that can modulate the immune response at the site and support the repair of damaged joint tissue. Since research in this field is still ongoing, the doctor will discuss realistic expectations for your form of arthritis.
When is the treatment not suitable?
The procedure is off the table during an active joint infection, a severe flare or pregnancy, and with cancer or blood clotting disorders — the doctor postpones it or suggests another option instead.
How is knee arthritis different from osteoarthritis?
Osteoarthritis is wear of the cartilage, usually showing as aching pain and a dry crunch with movement. Knee arthritis is inflammation from an autoimmune reaction, infection or gout, with redness, warmth, marked swelling and tenderness to touch.
Why does an arthritic joint hurt even at rest?
Inflammation never stops stimulating the pain receptors of the joint, whether you move, rest or sleep at night. Treatment that targets inflammation, including PRP and SVF, can help ease this pain.
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 looks at your X-rays, MRI, ultrasound or blood tests free of charge and says whether regenerative treatment could suit your type of arthritis — simply send them.
What happens if rheumatoid arthritis is not treated?
Permanent joint deformity, loss of function, osteoporosis and damage to internal organs such as the heart, lungs and kidneys can follow if it goes untreated. Timely treatment is needed to prevent this.
