Best Medicine for Cartilage Repair

At the London Cartilage Clinic, exploring the optimal medicines for cartilage repair is a key area of focus. Our approach integrates advanced medical treatments with regenerative therapies to effectively address cartilage damage and promote healing. From hyaluronic acid injections to stem cell therapy, we offer a variety of options tailored to each patient's needs.

Advanced Treatments for Cartilage Repair

Our clinic specialises in innovative treatments for cartilage repair, including Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRF), therapy, stem cell treatment, fat cells, exsomsomes, Arthrosamid and hyaluronic acid injections. These therapies are designed to enhance the body's natural healing processes, offering effective alternatives to more invasive surgical methods. In addition to these, we also utilise surgical approaches such as liquid cartilage, autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI), Matrix-induced Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation (MACI), and Scaffold-based Tissue-engineered Autologous Chondrocytes Implantation (STACI). With advancements in technology, these methods have become highly effective in cartilage regeneration.

Each patient’s cartilage injury is unique, demanding a bespoke treatment approach. We provide personalised medical plans based on a thorough assessment of the injury, taking into account factors like age, activity level, and the specific nature of the cartilage damage. This tailored approach ensures the most efficacious treatment for each individual.

Why microfracture and ChondroFiller outcomes diverge

Microfracture repairs with fibrocartilage that peaks at twelve months but deteriorates by year three as secondary bone changes develop beneath the repair; ChondroFiller injection sustains improvement at three years by avoiding subchondral bone disruption.

Who qualifies for ChondroFiller injection

ChondroFiller is indicated for the full cartilage-wear spectrum—from early lesions to Grade IV (bone-on-bone) osteoarthritis—with no age limit and no defect-size ceiling; candidacy hinges on joint stability, not disease severity.
