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 are there to help calm inflammation and pain and to support the joint's tissues; they do not stand in for a rheumatologist treating a systemic disease. The doctor first confirms what kind of arthritis it is and chooses the right time — never during an active joint infection or a severe flare.

Joints we treat

Large and small joints — the doctor chooses the joint, the method and the number of injections after reviewing your scans

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.

It is used in inflammatory arthritis — once the acute flare is over — for its influence on local inflammation and the repair of tissue.

PRP — platelet-rich plasma from your own blood

A small amount of your blood is used to separate plasma rich in platelets and growth factors, which is then injected into the joint. It helps settle inflammation and gives tissue repair better conditions.

As a single element of the wider plan, it can be advised in rheumatoid and other inflammatory arthritis.

How the procedure goes: step by step

Consultation and scan review

Examination of the joint and a review of X-rays, MRI or ultrasound let the doctor decide whether the procedure is suitable for you; scans you already have can be sent beforehand.

Blood sample for PRP

From a small amount of blood drawn from a vein, platelet-rich plasma with growth factors is prepared later on.
 
The doctor tells you in advance which tests are needed.

Adipose tissue sample

Under local anaesthetic we take roughly 30 ml of adipose tissue through a single puncture on the abdomen or the inner thigh — no stitches required.

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

You need neither crutches nor a hospital stay. The doctor stays in contact after the procedure and watches the joint's response.

Follow-up visits

6 months

Pain usually eases over the first month, mobility improves over about three months and the full effect develops over around six months; follow-up visits let the doctor see the joint's response and adjust the plan.

After the procedure

Most people are home the same day and back to their usual routine within a day or two, the puncture sites covered with small dressings. The joint may ache a little more during the first week, as expected. Over the first month the pain usually eases, over about three months mobility and activity improve, and the full effect builds over around six months. How long it holds varies individually with the stage of the condition, body weight, activity and other factors, so no fixed result can be promised. If a rheumatologist treats you, do not drop your prescribed medication without consulting them.

Why patients choose City Medical Centre

Preserving your own joint, not replacing it, is the goal of our treatment without surgery

Your own tissue

Only material from your body — your blood and adipose tissue — and nothing synthetic or from a donor

No crutches

No long rehabilitation — just punctures instead of incisions and local anaesthetic

Second opinion

A doctor independently assesses the X-rays, MRI or reports you send — free of charge

Support after the procedure

We stay in touch after the procedure and follow the result, not just the day of the injection
