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.

Helping to reduce inflammation and pain and to support tissue inside the joint — that is the role of PRP and SVF, alongside, not instead of, a rheumatologist's care for a systemic disease. The doctor first confirms the type of arthritis and waits for the right moment, never acting during a severe flare or an active joint infection.

Joints we treat

Any size of joint, large or small: your scans are reviewed first, then the doctor settles on the joint, the method and the number of injections

Methods we use

Cell therapy (SVF) from your own adipose tissue

To obtain the stromal vascular fraction (SVF), a mix of cells that support tissue repair, a small sample of your adipose tissue is processed. The SVF is combined with your own plasma and injected into the affected joint.

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

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 be recommended for rheumatoid and other inflammatory arthritis as one part of the overall treatment plan.

How the procedure goes: step by step

Consultation and scan review

Your X-rays, MRI or ultrasound are reviewed and the joint is examined, after which the doctor decides whether this procedure suits you. Already have scans? You can send them in advance.

Blood sample for PRP

Blood is taken from a vein in a small amount, later to be turned into platelet-rich plasma with growth factors.
 
The doctor tells you in advance which tests are needed.

Adipose tissue sample

A puncture on the abdomen or inner thigh, local anaesthetic and about 30 ml of adipose tissue taken — the site needs no stitches.

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

The prepared material goes directly into the affected joint, with ultrasound guidance helping to place it accurately.

Follow-up

You go without crutches or a hospital stay, while the doctor keeps in touch after the procedure and follows the joint's response.

Follow-up visits

After 1 month
3 months
6 months

With follow-up visits the doctor can see how the joint responds and change the plan if needed. As a rule, pain eases in the first month, mobility improves across about three months, and the full effect takes around six months to develop.

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.

Joint treatment: frequently asked questions

Arthritis treatment in Kalaburagi: a short guide

Arthritis treatment in Kalaburagi uses your own tissue: platelet-rich plasma from a small blood sample and the stromal vascular fraction from a small adipose tissue sample. There is no donor or synthetic material.

Most patients in Kalaburagi go home the same day and return to normal daily activity within a day or two. During the first week the joint may ache a little more — this is an expected reaction.

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