What is regenerative
joint treatment?
Your blood provides platelet-rich plasma (PRP), and a small sample of adipose tissue provides the stromal vascular fraction (SVF). In regenerative joint treatment this material goes into the affected joint by injection, helping to reduce pain and inflammation and to support the tissues inside it.
It is an alternative for those with sore joints who prefer not to have surgery yet, or at all, and for those told they need a joint replacement. Earlier stages give a better chance of a durable effect; your scans show the doctor where you stand.

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
Elbow
Pain from overuse or sports strain, worn joint surfaces
Hand and wrist joints
Finger and wrist joints that feel stiff and painful
Knee
Wear of the cartilage, meniscus problems, pain on the stairs and after walks
Hip
Early hip osteoarthritis, groin pain, limited rotation
Ankle
Pain and stiffness after sprains and old injuries
Shoulder
Pain on lifting the arm, wear of the joint and nearby tendons
Methods we use
Cell therapy (SVF) from your own adipose tissue
The method starts with a small adipose tissue sample, which is processed to separate the stromal vascular fraction (SVF), a mix of cells active in tissue repair. With your own plasma added, it is injected into the affected joint.
When the joint has more noticeable changes and you want the effect to last longer, this is the usual choice.
PRP — platelet-rich plasma from your own blood
Plasma containing many platelets and growth factors is prepared from a small amount of your blood and injected into the joint, helping inflammation settle and creating better conditions for repair.
It is suitable as a separate injection course or in combination with SVF.
How the procedure goes: step by step
Consultation and scan review
Your joint is examined and the doctor studies your X-rays, MRI or ultrasound to judge whether the procedure is suitable. Existing scans can be sent before the appointment.
Blood sample for PRP
A small blood draw from a vein provides the material from which platelet-rich plasma with growth factors is later prepared.
The doctor tells you in advance which tests are needed.
Adipose tissue sample
With local anaesthetic, a small amount of adipose tissue (around 30 ml) is taken via a puncture on the abdomen or inner thigh — without stitches.
Processing in a centrifuge
In a centrifuge the sample separates into layers. The stromal vascular fraction is then isolated and combined with the platelet-rich plasma.
The whole procedure is done in one day.
Injection into the joint
The prepared material is injected directly into the affected joint under ultrasound guidance, which helps 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
During follow-up visits the doctor checks the joint's response and adapts the plan: pain usually subsides in the first month, movement improves over about three months and the full effect develops over around six months.

After the procedure
Most people go home the same day and return to normal daily activity within a day or two; the puncture sites are covered with small dressings. During the first week the joint may ache a little more — this is an expected reaction. Over the first month the pain usually eases, over about three months mobility and activity improve, and the full effect develops over around six months. How long it lasts differs from person to person and depends on the stage of the condition, body weight, activity and other factors — no one can promise a fixed result. The doctor gives you individual advice on exercise and load for the first weeks.

Joint treatment: frequently asked questions
What is the difference between PRP and SVF?
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is prepared from your blood, while SVF is a cell fraction taken from a small adipose tissue sample. Because they work differently, they are often combined to strengthen the regenerative effect in the joint.
Is the treatment safe?
With both methods the tissue is your own, so the chance of rejection or an allergic reaction is very low. Any injection can bring temporary pain, swelling or bruising, and infection is rare. The doctor talks you through the risks in your case at the consultation.
How long does the effect last?
It varies. After PRP the effect often lasts from several months to about a year; after SVF it can last longer. Duration depends on the stage of the condition and on your body, so no one can promise a fixed result.
Who should not have the procedure?
It is not carried out if you have cancer, an acute infection or a blood clotting disorder, if you are pregnant, or during a flare-up of a serious chronic illness. The doctor checks this at the consultation.
Is treating coxarthrosis (hip osteoarthritis) possible without surgery?
In early stages, a combination of PRP or SVF injections, exercise therapy and physiotherapy can reduce pain and improve movement. Where the joint is already badly damaged, replacement may be more realistic; the doctor will be honest with you once your scans are reviewed.
Can avascular necrosis of the hip be treated?
Stages 1–2 are early enough for SVF therapy to be considered, supporting blood supply to the femoral head and delaying joint replacement. At later stages, surgery is usually unavoidable.
Why try to avoid joint replacement?
Keep in mind that replacement is major surgery with long rehabilitation, risks such as infection and implants that may eventually be redone. When changes are early or moderate, trying to preserve your own joint first often makes sense.
Can I get a second opinion on my scans?
Of course. Send the X-rays, MRI, CT or medical reports you have; a doctor reviews them free and tells you if the procedure could suit you and what further steps may be needed.
How soon can I return to normal life?
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.
Does the treatment help with shoulder pain?
PRP is an option for rotator cuff and shoulder joint problems, and SVF can be considered for more advanced arthritis of the shoulder. The doctor first pins down the cause of the pain, and suitability depends on it.
