What is arthritis
and when does this treatment fit?
Put simply, arthritis is joint inflammation. The joint may hurt at rest and at night, feel stiff each morning for more than half an hour, swell, redden and feel warm. Causes include autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid or psoriatic arthritis, as well as gout, infection or an old injury.
PRP and SVF can lessen inflammation and pain and back up the tissues in the joint, but systemic disease remains the rheumatologist's job. The procedure is skipped while there is an active joint infection or a severe flare, and the doctor first confirms the form of arthritis before choosing when to proceed.

Methods we use
Cell therapy (SVF) from your own adipose tissue
The stromal vascular fraction (SVF) — a blend of cells involved in repairing tissue — is isolated by processing a small sample of your adipose tissue. Mixed with your own plasma, it goes into the affected joint by injection.
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
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.
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
If you already have scans, send them before the visit: the doctor examines the joint, reviews your X-rays, MRI or ultrasound and decides whether the procedure suits you.
Blood sample for PRP
Platelet-rich plasma with growth factors is prepared later from a small amount of blood taken from your vein.
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
In a centrifuge the sample separates into layers; the stromal vascular fraction is then isolated and mixed with the platelet-rich plasma.
The whole procedure is done in one day.
Injection into the joint
The affected joint receives the prepared material by direct injection under ultrasound guidance, for precise placement.
Follow-up
After the procedure there is no hospital stay and no need for crutches; the doctor stays in touch and follows the joint's progress.

Follow-up visits
The plan is adjusted at follow-up visits, where the doctor sees how the joint responds: pain tends to ease over the first month, mobility to improve over about three months, and the full effect to develop over roughly six months.

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?
Arthritis is an inflammatory joint disease. You may have pain at night or at rest, morning stiffness for longer than 30 minutes, swelling, and redness and warmth over the joint. The causes include infections, gout, psoriasis and autoimmune conditions, rheumatoid arthritis among them.
Can PRP help with rheumatoid arthritis?
For rheumatoid and other types of inflammatory arthritis, PRP may be used to help reduce swelling, pain and local inflammation; the growth factors platelets release influence the immune response and tissue repair. It complements the treatment from your rheumatologist but does not replace it.
Can psoriatic arthritis be cured?
At present psoriatic arthritis, a chronic disease, cannot be cured completely. Treatment aims at long remission by controlling inflammation and preventing deformity of the joints; regenerative injections may be one part of this plan.
How does SVF work in autoimmune arthritis?
SVF contains cells that can adjust the local immune response and help repair damaged tissue in the joint. Research here is still ongoing, so the doctor will talk through realistic expectations for your type of arthritis.
When is the treatment not suitable?
The doctor postpones the procedure or suggests another option in cases of active joint infection, a severe flare, pregnancy, cancer or blood clotting disorders, as it is not done then.
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 stimulates the joint's pain receptors non-stop: on movement, at rest, at night. Reducing the inflammation with treatment such as PRP and SVF can 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 will review your X-rays, MRI, ultrasound or blood test results free of charge and tell you if regenerative treatment could suit your type of arthritis — just 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.
