Microfracture surgery is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that is used to treat knee conditions such as cartilage damage and osteoarthritis. The procedure involves creating small holes in the bone beneath the damaged area of cartilage, which allows new cartilage to grow and fill in the damaged area. During the procedure, the surgeon uses a […]
Laser Therapy

Laser therapy for knees is a non-invasive regenerative medicine approach that involves using low-level laser therapy (LLLT) or high-power laser therapy (HPLT) to reduce pain and inflammation and promote tissue healing in the knee joint. During the procedure, a handheld device is used to apply laser energy to the affected area, such as the knee […]
Extracorporeal shock wave therapy

Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) is a non-invasive regenerative medicine approach that involves using shock waves to stimulate tissue repair and regeneration in damaged tissues, including the knee joint. During the procedure, a handheld device is used to deliver high-energy shock waves to the affected area, such as the knee joint. The shock waves trigger […]
Hyaluronic Acid Injections

Hyaluronic acid injections, also known as viscosupplementation, involve injecting a gel-like solution of hyaluronic acid into the knee joint in order to help lubricate the joint and reduce pain and inflammation. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance found in the body, particularly in the joints and connective tissues. It plays an important role in […]
Prolotherapy

Prolotherapy is a regenerative medicine approach that involves injecting a solution of irritant substances, such as dextrose or other natural substances, into damaged or injured tissues, including the knee joint, in order to stimulate tissue repair and regeneration. The injection of the irritant solution triggers a localized inflammatory response in the affected tissues, which can […]
Lipogems Technology

Lipogems technology is a minimally invasive regenerative medicine approach that involves using a patient’s own adipose (fat) tissue to promote tissue repair and regeneration in damaged tissues, including the knee joint. During the procedure, a small amount of adipose tissue is harvested from the patient, typically from the abdomen or thigh area, using a special […]
Growth factor injections

Growth factor injections involve using concentrated solutions of growth factors to stimulate tissue repair and regeneration in damaged tissues, including the knee joint. Growth factors are naturally occurring proteins in the body that play a critical role in tissue repair and regeneration. By injecting concentrated solutions of these growth factors directly into the affected area, […]
Stem cell therapy

Stem cell therapy is a regenerative medicine approach that involves using stem cells to promote the repair and regeneration of damaged tissues in the body, including the knee joint. Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that have the potential to develop into different types of cells in the body, including bone, cartilage, and muscle cells. In […]
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy
![](https://thekneesurgeon.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Block-9-1024x217.jpg)
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections involve using a concentrated solution of platelets, growth factors, and other bioactive proteins derived from the patient’s own blood to promote healing and tissue regeneration in damaged or injured tissues. During the procedure, a small amount of the patient’s blood is drawn and processed using a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich […]
Meniscal tear treatment

Meniscal tears are a common injury to the cartilage in the knee joint, usually caused by twisting or pivoting movements. The meniscus is a rubbery, C-shaped disc that cushions and stabilizes the knee joint. Meniscal tears can range from minor to severe, and treatment options depend on the type and severity of the tear, as […]
