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 may help ease inflammation and pain and support the tissues within the joint, yet they are no substitute for a rheumatologist's care of a systemic disease. We do not carry out the procedure during an active joint infection or a severe flare — the doctor first confirms which arthritis you have and picks the right moment.

Methods we use
Cell therapy (SVF) from your own adipose tissue
A little of your adipose tissue is collected and processed so that the stromal vascular fraction (SVF), a mixture of cells that help tissue repair, can be isolated. Together with your own plasma it is injected into the joint that is affected.
Inflammatory arthritis is one use for it, once the acute flare has settled — because it acts on local inflammation and tissue repair.
PRP — platelet-rich plasma from your own blood
Plasma rich in platelets and growth factors is separated from a small amount of your blood and injected into the joint. It helps calm inflammation and creates better conditions for tissue repair.
It may form one part of the overall treatment plan in rheumatoid and other types of inflammatory arthritis.
How the procedure goes: step by step
Consultation and scan review
After examining the joint and reviewing your X-rays, MRI or ultrasound, the doctor decides whether the procedure is right for you. Scans you already have can be sent ahead of 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
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
The prepared material is placed precisely: it is injected directly into the affected joint under ultrasound guidance.
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
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
Most patients return home the same day and to normal activity within a day or two; small dressings are put over the puncture sites. The first week may bring slightly more aching in the joint, which is an expected reaction. During the first month the pain tends to ease, during about three months mobility and activity improve, and over around six months the full effect develops. How long it lasts depends on the person — the stage of the condition, body weight, activity and other factors — so a fixed result cannot be promised by anyone. Do not stop medication prescribed by your rheumatologist without talking to them first.

Joint treatment: frequently asked questions
What is arthritis and what are its symptoms?
Arthritis is an inflammatory disease of the joints. Typical signs are pain at rest and at night, morning stiffness lasting more than 30 minutes, swelling, redness and warmth over the joint. Causes include autoimmune conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, infections, gout and psoriasis.
Can PRP help with rheumatoid arthritis?
In inflammatory arthritis, rheumatoid included, PRP may help cut local inflammation, pain and swelling. Growth factors released by the platelets shape the immune response and support tissue repair. It is a complement to, not a substitute for, your rheumatologist's treatment.
Can psoriatic arthritis be cured?
Psoriatic arthritis is chronic and, for now, cannot be cured completely. Treatment therefore aims at long remission, controlling inflammation and preventing the joints from deforming. Regenerative injections may be one part of that plan.
How does SVF work in autoimmune arthritis?
SVF brings cells able to modulate the immune response in the joint and to support repair of damaged tissue. This is an area of ongoing research, so expect the doctor to discuss realistic outcomes for your type of arthritis.
When is the treatment not suitable?
It is not done during an active infection of the joint, a severe flare, pregnancy, cancer or blood clotting disorders; instead the doctor postpones the procedure or proposes another option.
How is knee arthritis different from osteoarthritis?
Inflammation from an autoimmune reaction, infection or gout is knee arthritis — redness, warmth, marked swelling and a knee tender to touch. Cartilage wear is osteoarthritis, which usually shows as aching pain and a dry crunch when moving.
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. Send us the results of your X-rays, MRI, ultrasound or blood tests: a doctor reviews them free of charge and tells you if regenerative treatment could suit your type of arthritis.
What happens if rheumatoid arthritis is not treated?
Without treatment the condition can leave the joint permanently deformed, cause loss of function and osteoporosis, and damage internal organs like the heart, lungs and kidneys; timely treatment prevents these complications.

How PRP and SVF work in arthritis for Mosul residents
Knee arthritis differs from knee osteoarthritis. Arthritis shows redness, warmth, swelling and tenderness to touch; osteoarthritis shows a dry crunch and aching pain on movement. For patients from Mosul, the diagnosis comes first.
PRP may be given as a course of injections or together with SVF. The method and number of injections are chosen for each patient from Mosul after the examination.
How much does arthritis treatment cost in Mosul? The doctor names the price after confirming the type of arthritis and choosing PRP, SVF or a combination. Send a request or message us in any messenger.
