SVF and PRP Joint Therapy in Nyala

One is plasma, one is cells: PRP is platelet-rich plasma from your blood, SVF a cell fraction from a small adipose tissue sample. As they act in different ways, doctors often combine them to boost the regenerative effect in the joint.

Using your own tissue in both methods means a very low risk of rejection or an allergic reaction. Temporary pain, swelling or bruising can happen with any injection, and infection is rare. The doctor explains the risks for your case during the consultation.

Results vary. The effect of PRP often holds for several months to about a year; SVF can keep working longer. How long it lasts depends on the stage of the condition and your own body — no one can promise a fixed result.

We do not perform the procedure in cases of cancer, acute infection, blood clotting disorders, pregnancy or a flare-up of a serious chronic illness. The doctor checks all of this at the consultation.

At early stages, pain can be reduced and movement improved with PRP or SVF injections combined with exercise therapy and physiotherapy. Should the joint already be badly damaged, a replacement may be more realistic — the doctor tells you honestly after looking at your scans.

At stages 1–2, SVF therapy can be considered to help the blood supply to the femoral head and delay joint replacement; at later stages surgery is usually necessary.

Major surgery, long rehabilitation, risks like infection and implants that may need to be redone eventually — that is what a replacement involves. With early or moderate changes, preserving your own joint first is often sensible.

Yes. A doctor will review your X-rays, MRI, CT or medical reports free of charge once you send them, and explain whether the procedure could suit you and what else might be needed.

Usually a day or two is enough. There is no long rehabilitation and no crutches, and in the first weeks you follow the doctor's recommendations on load and exercise.

PRP is used for problems with the shoulder joint and rotator cuff, while SVF may be considered for more advanced shoulder arthritis. Whether it suits you depends on what causes the pain, which the doctor establishes first.
