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.

Methods we use
Cell therapy (SVF) from your own adipose tissue
The affected joint receives an injection of the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) — a set of cells involved in tissue repair, isolated from a small sample of your adipose tissue — combined with your own plasma.
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
We separate plasma rich in platelets and growth factors from a small quantity of your blood and inject it into the joint. There it helps quieten inflammation and sets up better conditions for tissue repair.
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
Whether the procedure suits you is decided once the doctor has examined your joint and reviewed your X-rays, MRI or ultrasound. If scans already exist, you can send them before visiting.
Blood sample for PRP
A vein provides a small amount of blood, which is later used to prepare platelet-rich plasma rich in growth factors.
The doctor tells you in advance which tests are needed.
Adipose tissue sample
Under local anaesthetic, a small portion of adipose tissue (about 30 ml) is taken through a puncture on the abdomen or inner thigh. No stitches are needed.
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
Ultrasound guidance helps position it precisely as the prepared material is injected directly into the affected joint.
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
Follow-up visits are there so the doctor can see the joint's response and adjust the plan. Expect pain to ease over the first month, mobility to improve over about three months and the full effect to develop over around 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 inflames the joints. Classic signs: pain when resting and at night, over 30 minutes of stiffness in the morning, swelling, and a red, warm joint. Infections, gout, psoriasis and autoimmune conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis are among its causes.
Can PRP help with rheumatoid arthritis?
PRP is sometimes used in rheumatoid arthritis and other inflammatory arthritis to help reduce pain, swelling and local inflammation, since the growth factors released by platelets influence tissue repair and the immune response. It complements your rheumatologist's treatment rather than replacing it.
Can psoriatic arthritis be cured?
The aim with psoriatic arthritis, a chronic disease that cannot currently be cured completely, is long remission — controlling inflammation and stopping joint deformity. One part of that plan can be regenerative injections.
How does SVF work in autoimmune arthritis?
In SVF there are cells that can influence the local immune response and help damaged tissue in the joint to repair. The doctor will discuss realistic expectations for your type of arthritis, since research in this area is ongoing.
When is the treatment not suitable?
With an active joint infection, a severe flare, pregnancy, cancer or blood clotting disorders, the procedure is not done — the doctor either postpones it or suggests an alternative.
How is knee arthritis different from osteoarthritis?
Knee arthritis is inflammation caused by an autoimmune reaction, infection or gout: redness, warmth, marked swelling and tenderness to touch. Osteoarthritis is wear of the cartilage and usually shows as a dry crunch and aching pain on movement.
Why does an arthritic joint hurt even at rest?
Because inflammation keeps the joint's pain receptors stimulated all the time — moving, resting or at night — treatment aimed at reducing it, including PRP and SVF, can ease the pain.
Can joint injections be done during pregnancy?
No. Pregnancy is a contraindication to joint injections, including PRP and SVF. Arthritis treatment during pregnancy is decided only together with a rheumatologist and an obstetrician.
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?
If it is not treated, it may cause permanent deformity of the joint, loss of function, osteoporosis and damage to internal organs — the heart, lungs and kidneys among them. Treating it in time helps prevent these complications.
