What is regenerative
joint treatment?

Material from your own body is at the heart of regenerative joint treatment — PRP, a platelet-rich plasma derived from blood, and SVF, the stromal vascular fraction derived from a small sample of adipose tissue. Placed into the affected joint by injection, it reduces pain and inflammation and supports the joint's tissues.

For someone with joint pain who wants to avoid surgery or delay it, or who has been told replacement is the only choice, this is worth considering. The doctor reviews your scans to assess the stage — earlier stages give a better chance of a lasting result.

Joints we treat

Both large and small joints are treated; the joint, the method and the number of injections are chosen by the doctor once your scans are reviewed

Methods we use

Cell therapy (SVF) from your own adipose tissue

A small sample of your adipose tissue is processed to isolate the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) — a mix of cells involved in tissue repair. Combined with your own plasma, it is injected into the affected 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

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.

As a course of injections it can be used alone, or it can be added to SVF.

How the procedure goes: step by step

Consultation and scan review

Before anything else, the doctor examines the joint and goes through your X-rays, MRI or ultrasound to see if the procedure is suitable. Scans can be sent to us ahead of time.

Blood sample for PRP

From a vein, a small amount of blood is taken. It is later used to prepare plasma rich in platelets and growth factors.
 
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

Spinning the sample in a centrifuge separates it into layers, after which the stromal vascular fraction is isolated and added to the platelet-rich plasma.
The whole procedure is done in one day.

Injection into the joint

The prepared material is injected straight into the affected joint under ultrasound guidance, which helps to place it precisely.

Follow-up

Neither a hospital stay nor crutches are required. The doctor stays in contact after the procedure and monitors how the joint responds.

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

Most patients return home that same day and get back to their usual daily activity in a day or two, with small dressings on the puncture sites. It is an expected reaction for the joint to ache slightly more in the first week. Over the first month the pain usually eases, over about three months mobility and activity get better, and over around six months the full effect develops. How long it lasts is individual — the stage of the condition, body weight, activity and other factors all play a part — and no one can promise a fixed result. In the first weeks, your doctor advises you individually on exercise and load.

Joint treatment: frequently asked questions

Joint treatment in Loni: a short guide

Non-surgical joint treatment is not for everyone. It is not done with cancer, acute infections, blood clotting disorders, during pregnancy or during a flare-up of a serious chronic illness. The doctor checks this for every patient in Loni at the consultation.

It starts with a consultation: the doctor examines the joint and reviews your X-rays, MRI or ultrasound. Then a small blood sample and an adipose tissue sample are taken, processed in a centrifuge and injected into the joint under ultrasound guidance. For patients from Loni, everything is done in one day.

The price depends on how many joints are treated and which method is chosen. For patients from Loni, the doctor explains the plan and the cost at the consultation, which is free.
