Durolane is a stabilised hyaluronic acid injection that restores lubrication and shock absorption in osteoarthritic joints, especially the knee.
It is commonly chosen when conservative care is insufficient but surgery is not yet indicated.
Durolane offers a practical balance of efficacy and convenience, particularly for patients who prefer a low-burden, non-surgical treatment plan.
Our specialist team uses diagnosis-led injection planning so treatment fits your joint pathology, activity level, and long-term goals.
Durolane’s unique formulation provides longer-lasting relief compared to some other hyaluronic acid treatments, making it a preferred choice for knee osteoarthritis management.
Many patients experience improvement in pain and mobility within a few weeks after receiving the Durolane Injection.
As with any medical procedure, there are potential side effects, but Durolane is generally well-tolerated. Our specialists will discuss any concerns you may have during your consultation.
The main symptoms of osteoarthritis are pain and stiffness that’s localised to certain joints. However, it can also include:
It’s normal for patients to experience slight discomfort during the injection, although this can simply be avoided through the use of a numbing agent or localised anaesthetic.
The exact duration of effectiveness of Durolane injections will depend on a range of factors, such as age, degree of injury, the joints affected, and underlying health conditions. A medical professional will be able to provide an accurate forecast during a consultation. However, Durolane is considered a long lasting treatment for relieving knee pain and restoring mobility relative to other options.

Full-thickness knee cartilage defects—lesions down to bone—are repaired with cell-seeded scaffolds. MACI outperforms microfracture for defects of 3 cm² or larger; single-stage STACi achieves this in one operation rather than two.
ChondroFiller is a Class III medical device costing £3,000 per box at London Cartilage Clinic as an all-inclusive fee, with the collagen scaffold implant itself accounting for most of the expense.
The hip's labrum acts as a gasket seal, maintaining a pressurised fluid film; years of friction from bone shape deformities gradually tear it, and once torn, cartilage wear accelerates.
