What is regenerative
joint treatment?
Regenerative joint treatment uses material from your own body — platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from blood and the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) from a small sample of adipose tissue. It is injected into the affected joint to reduce pain and inflammation and to support the tissues inside it.
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.

Methods we use
Cell therapy (SVF) from your own adipose tissue
From a small sample of your adipose tissue, the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) is isolated — cells that are involved in tissue repair. This fraction, combined with your plasma, is injected into the affected joint.
It is typically chosen for more pronounced joint changes, with a longer-lasting result in mind.
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 works either as a stand-alone course of injections or alongside 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
All it takes is a little venous blood; later on it becomes platelet-rich plasma containing growth factors.
The doctor tells you in advance which tests are needed.
Adipose tissue sample
A puncture on the abdomen or inner thigh, made under local anaesthetic, is used to take a small portion of adipose tissue, about 30 ml. No stitches follow.
Processing in a centrifuge
The centrifuge separates the sample into layers, the stromal vascular fraction is isolated, and it is then mixed with platelet-rich plasma.
The whole procedure is done in one day.
Injection into the joint
Ultrasound guidance allows the prepared material to be injected precisely, directly into the affected joint.
Follow-up
Afterwards there are no crutches and no hospital stay, and the doctor keeps in touch to follow how the joint is responding.

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
You will most likely go home on the day of the procedure and be back to normal daily activity in a day or two, with small dressings over the puncture sites. The joint may ache a little more for the first week, which is an expected reaction. Over the first month pain usually eases, mobility and activity improve over about three months, and it takes around six months for the full effect to develop. How long the effect lasts depends on the individual — the stage of the condition, body weight, activity and other factors — so nobody can promise a fixed result. The doctor gives you personal advice on exercise and load in the first weeks.

Joint treatment: frequently asked questions
What is the difference between PRP and SVF?
SVF is a cell fraction isolated from a small sample of your adipose tissue, whereas PRP is platelet-rich plasma prepared from your blood. They work differently and are frequently combined for a stronger regenerative effect in the joint.
Is the treatment safe?
Your own tissue is used in both methods, which keeps the risk of rejection or an allergic reaction very low. Any injection may cause temporary pain, swelling or bruising; infection is rare. The doctor explains your individual risks at the consultation.
How long does the effect last?
It is different for everyone: after PRP the effect frequently lasts from several months to roughly a year, and SVF can give a longer effect. The stage of the condition and your body decide the duration, so no fixed result can be promised.
Who should not have the procedure?
Cancer, acute infections, blood clotting disorders, pregnancy and a flare-up of a serious chronic illness all rule the procedure out. The doctor checks this at the consultation.
Can I treat hip osteoarthritis (coxarthrosis) without surgery?
At early stages, PRP or SVF injections combined with exercise therapy and physiotherapy can reduce pain and improve movement. If the joint is already badly damaged, replacement may be the more realistic option — the doctor will tell you honestly after seeing your scans.
Can avascular necrosis of the hip be treated?
At early stages (1–2), SVF therapy may be considered to support blood supply to the femoral head and delay the need for joint replacement. At later stages surgery is usually required.
Why try to avoid joint replacement?
Replacement means major surgery, a long rehabilitation, risks including infection and implants that may eventually have to 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?
Yes — send your X-rays, MRI, CT or medical reports, and a doctor will look at them free of charge, then tell you whether the procedure could suit you and what else may be needed.
How soon can I return to normal life?
Most people return within a day or two. There is no long rehabilitation and no need for crutches; the doctor gives advice on load and exercise for the first weeks.
Does the treatment help with shoulder pain?
PRP is applied to shoulder joint and rotator cuff problems, and SVF may be considered if arthritis of the shoulder is more advanced. Whether it suits you depends on the cause of the pain — the first thing the doctor establishes.

Everything about regenerative joint treatment in Seville
The method relies on your own tissue only, so there is no donor or synthetic material. Plasma is prepared from a small blood sample, and SVF from about 30 ml of adipose tissue taken through a puncture. This is how non-surgical joint treatment works for everyone in Seville.
Before the procedure, the doctor tells you which tests are needed. If you already have X-rays, MRI or ultrasound results, patients from Seville can send them in advance and receive a preliminary answer on whether the treatment could suit them.
Leave a request, and a coordinator will contact you to arrange a free consultation and scan review. The price of joint treatment in Seville is set individually and explained before any procedure.
