What is arthritis
and when does this treatment fit?

In arthritis the joint is inflamed. People typically notice pain even at rest or at night, stiffness on waking that goes on for more than half an hour, swelling, and a red, warm joint. Behind it may be an autoimmune condition such as rheumatoid or psoriatic arthritis, gout, an infection or old trauma.

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.

Joints we treat

Large and small joints are treated, with the doctor choosing the joint, method and number of injections based on your scans

Methods we use

Cell therapy (SVF) from your own adipose tissue

SVF, or stromal vascular fraction, is a mix of cells involved in tissue repair, isolated by processing a small amount of your adipose tissue. It is combined with plasma from your own blood and injected into the affected joint.

In inflammatory arthritis it is used for its effect on local inflammation and tissue repair, once the acute flare has settled.

PRP — platelet-rich plasma from your own blood

Injected into the joint, plasma rich in platelets and growth factors — separated from a small amount of your blood — helps calm inflammation and makes conditions for tissue repair better.

It may form one part of the overall treatment plan in rheumatoid and other types of inflammatory arthritis.

How the procedure goes: step by step

Consultation and scan review

The doctor examines the joint, reviews your X-rays, MRI or ultrasound and decides whether the procedure suits you. If you already have scans, you can send them before 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

With local anaesthetic, a small amount of adipose tissue — about 30 ml — is collected through a puncture on the inner thigh or abdomen, and no stitches are required.

Processing in a centrifuge

Centrifuging the sample separates it into layers, after which the stromal vascular fraction is isolated and mixed into the platelet-rich plasma.
The whole procedure is done in one day.

Injection into the joint

Using ultrasound guidance to place it precisely, the prepared material is injected directly into the joint that is affected.

Follow-up

There are no crutches and no hospital stay. After the procedure the doctor keeps in touch and follows how the joint responds.

Follow-up visits

After 1 month
3 months
6 months

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

Small dressings are placed over the puncture sites, and most people leave the same day, returning to everyday activity within a day or two. A little more aching in the joint during the first week is an expected reaction. Over the first month pain generally eases; mobility and activity improve over about three months; the full effect develops over around six months. The duration differs between people and depends on the stage of the condition, body weight, activity and more, so a fixed result cannot be promised. Under a rheumatologist's care? Keep taking your prescribed medication unless you have discussed stopping it with them.

Joint treatment: frequently asked questions

Arthritis in Bikaner: types, methods and price

Regenerative injections are not done during an active joint infection or a severe flare. In Bikaner, the doctor chooses the right moment, usually once the acute inflammation has settled.

Follow-up visits help the doctor see how the joint responds and adjust the plan. In Bikaner, you receive recommendations on load and activity for the first weeks after the procedure.

Joint inflammation that does not settle? Book a free consultation in Bikaner: the doctor reviews your case and suggests whether PRP or SVF makes sense now. The price is set individually.
