BMAC (Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate) injection is an advanced regenerative therapy offered at the London Cartilage Clinic. This cutting-edge treatment utilizes the healing properties of the patient's own bone marrow cells to treat various knee conditions, including osteoarthritis, sports injuries, and cartilage damage. BMAC injections are minimally invasive and provide a promising alternative to more extensive knee surgeries.

How BMAC injection works from marrow to treatment site

BMAC therapy uses your own bone marrow aspirate, concentrated to increase the cellular and growth-factor components delivered to the affected area.

  • Bone marrow is aspirated under sterile, controlled conditions.
  • The sample is processed to concentrate regenerative components.
  • Prepared BMAC is injected with targeted image guidance.

This approach aims to reduce inflammation, improve function, and support tissue repair while avoiding more invasive surgery in selected cases.

Why choose BMAC for knee pain management

BMAC is often selected for patients seeking a biologic, minimally invasive option for degenerative or sports-related knee conditions.

  • Potential improvement in pain, mobility, and activity tolerance.
  • Lower procedural burden than major reconstructive surgery.
  • Can be incorporated into a wider rehabilitation and injection pathway.

At London Cartilage Clinic, BMAC protocols are specialist-led and individualised to your pathology, imaging findings, and recovery goals.
