What is arthritis
and when does this treatment fit?
An inflamed joint is the core of arthritis. Look for pain at night or when resting, stiffness in the morning for longer than half an hour, swelling, and a joint that is red and warm. The cause can be autoimmune (rheumatoid or psoriatic arthritis), gout, infection or a long-past injury.
While PRP and SVF can lower inflammation and pain and help the joint's inner tissues, a systemic disease still needs a rheumatologist — these injections do not take their place. They are never given during an active joint infection or a strong flare; the doctor first establishes the type of arthritis and times the procedure.

Methods we use
Cell therapy (SVF) from your own adipose tissue
A small sample of your adipose tissue is processed to isolate the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) — a mix of cells involved in tissue repair. Combined with your own plasma, it is injected into the affected joint.
For inflammatory arthritis it is applied after the acute flare has calmed, because of its effect on local inflammation and on tissue repair.
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.
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
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
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
A small portion of adipose tissue (about 30 ml) is collected under local anaesthetic through a puncture on the abdomen or inner thigh, with no stitches needed.
Processing in a centrifuge
Separated into layers by spinning in a centrifuge, the sample yields the stromal vascular fraction, which is isolated and mixed 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
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
At each follow-up visit the doctor checks the joint's response and adjusts the plan — over the first month pain usually eases, over about three months mobility improves, and over around six months the full effect develops.

After the procedure
Small dressings cover the punctures, and most people go home that same day, getting back to everyday activity within a day or two. Expect the joint to ache a little more in the first week — a normal reaction. Pain usually eases over the first month, mobility and activity improve over about three months, and the full effect develops over around six months. How long the result lasts varies with the stage of the condition, body weight, activity and other factors; no one can promise a fixed outcome. If you are being treated by a rheumatologist, keep your prescribed medication unless you have talked it over with them.

Joint treatment: frequently asked questions
What is arthritis and what are its symptoms?
In arthritis the joints are inflamed. People usually notice pain at night and at rest, stiffness in the morning that lasts more than 30 minutes, swelling, and redness and heat over the joint. It can be caused by autoimmune conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, by infections, by gout or by psoriasis.
Can PRP help with rheumatoid arthritis?
PRP may be used in rheumatoid and other inflammatory arthritis to help reduce local inflammation, pain and swelling. Growth factors released by platelets influence the immune response and tissue repair. It complements, but does not replace, the treatment prescribed by your rheumatologist.
Can psoriatic arthritis be cured?
Psoriatic arthritis is a chronic disease that cannot currently be cured completely. The aim is long remission: controlling inflammation and preventing joint deformity. Regenerative injections can be one part of that plan.
How does SVF work in autoimmune arthritis?
The cells in SVF can modulate the immune response locally and support repair of damaged joint tissue. As research in this area continues, the doctor will discuss what you can realistically expect for your type of arthritis.
When is the treatment not suitable?
If you have an active joint infection, a severe flare, cancer or a blood clotting disorder, or are pregnant, the procedure is not done; the doctor postpones it or offers another option.
How is knee arthritis different from osteoarthritis?
In knee arthritis the inflammation comes from an autoimmune reaction, infection or gout: the knee is red, warm, markedly swollen and tender to touch. Osteoarthritis, by contrast, is cartilage wear, usually felt as a dry crunch and aching pain when moving.
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 — pregnancy is a contraindication to any joint injections, PRP and SVF among them. During pregnancy, arthritis treatment is decided only with a rheumatologist and an obstetrician together.
Can I get a second opinion on my tests and scans?
Yes. Once you send your X-rays, MRI, ultrasound or blood test results, a doctor reviews them at no cost and says whether regenerative treatment could suit your type of arthritis.
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.
