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 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.

Joints we treat

After going through your scans, the doctor selects the joint, the method and the number of injections — whether the joint is large or small

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.

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 small blood sample is taken from a vein. Later, platelet-rich plasma with growth factors is prepared from this blood.
 
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

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 affected joint receives the prepared material by direct injection under ultrasound guidance, for precise placement.

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

Follow-up visits let the doctor see how the joint responds and adjust the plan — pain usually eases over the first month, mobility improves over about three months, and the full effect develops over around six months.

After the procedure

You will most likely go home the same day and resume normal daily life within a day or two, with the punctures covered by small dressings. During the first week the joint may ache a bit more, which is expected. Pain tends to ease across the first month, mobility and activity improve over roughly three months, and the full effect takes around six months to develop. How long it lasts is individual — it depends on the stage of the condition, body weight, activity and other factors, and no one can promise a set result. If you see a rheumatologist, talk to them before stopping any prescribed medication.

Second opinion

A doctor will give you an independent assessment free of charge — just send your X-rays, MRI or reports

Support after the procedure

We remain in contact after the procedure and follow the result, well beyond the injection day
