What is regenerative
joint treatment?

Everything used in regenerative joint treatment comes from you: platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is made from your blood, and the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) from a little adipose tissue. The doctor injects it into the painful joint to lessen inflammation and pain and to support the joint's inner tissues.

Joint pain and a wish to avoid or put off surgery, or a verdict that replacement is the only route — these are the typical reasons people come. An earlier stage of the condition means a better chance of lasting relief, and the doctor assesses it from your scans.

Joints we treat

Large and small joints can be treated; the doctor settles the joint, the method and the injection count after checking your scans

Methods we use

Cell therapy (SVF) from your own adipose tissue

Cell therapy (SVF) from your own adipose tissue

Processing a small sample of adipose tissue yields the stromal vascular fraction (SVF), a blend of cells that help tissue repair. The doctor combines it with your plasma and injects it into the problem joint.

The usual reason to choose it: more pronounced changes in the joint and the goal of a longer-lasting effect.

PRP — platelet-rich plasma from your own blood

PRP — platelet-rich plasma from your own blood

The doctor separates plasma rich in platelets and growth factors from a small amount of your blood and injects it into the joint. This helps to calm inflammation and supports tissue repair.

Used by itself as an injection course, or together with SVF.

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

A small amount of blood is taken from a vein. Platelet-rich plasma with growth factors is later prepared from it.
 
The doctor tells you in advance which tests are needed.

Adipose tissue sample

Under local anaesthetic, a small portion of adipose tissue (about 30 ml) is taken through a puncture on the abdomen or inner thigh. No stitches are needed.

Processing in a centrifuge

Once spun in a centrifuge, the sample separates into layers, and the stromal vascular fraction isolated from it is mixed with platelet-rich plasma.
The whole procedure is done in one day.

Injection into the joint

The finished material is injected into the affected joint itself, guided by ultrasound so that it lands precisely.

Follow-up

You go without crutches and without a hospital stay; the doctor keeps in contact after the procedure and follows your joint's progress.

Follow-up visits

After 1 month
3 months
6 months

The doctor uses follow-up visits to see the joint's response and change the plan if needed. Usually pain eases during the first month, mobility gets better over about three months, and the full effect takes around six months.

After the procedure

The puncture sites are covered with small dressings, and most patients go home the same day, returning to normal daily life within a day or two. A little extra aching in the joint during the first week is an expected reaction. Pain generally eases in the first month, mobility and activity improve over about three months, and the full effect develops over around six months. How long the effect lasts differs from person to person — it depends on the stage of the condition, body weight, activity and other factors, and no one can promise a fixed result. For the first weeks, the doctor gives you individual advice on exercise and load.

  1. 1 week
  2. 1 month
  3. ~3 months
  4. ~6 months

Joint treatment: frequently asked questions

About non-surgical joint treatment for patients from Khartoum

The earlier the stage, the better the chance of a lasting effect. That is why patients from Khartoum start with a review of their X-rays or MRI: the doctor assesses the joint and tells you honestly whether SVF or PRP is likely to help or whether another option is more realistic.

Most patients from Khartoum 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. Pain usually eases over the first month.

Patients from Khartoum can start with a free second opinion: send your X-rays, MRI, CT or reports, and a doctor will tell you whether SVF or PRP could help. The price of treatment is named at the consultation.
