Elbow pain? Understand your options before making a decision.
Many patients have more options than they realise. We offer treatments from simple injections to advanced cartilage care.
Our Approach to Elbow Treatment
Everything we do is aimed at relieving your elbow pain and restoring your movement. How we get there depends on your situation. Our clinical approach covers four areas of treatment. Many of our treatments work across more than one area depending on your condition and how they are applied. Your consultation determines exactly which combination is right for you.
Relieve
Everything below has the same primary goal: relieving your elbow pain and restoring your movement. The four approaches describe how we get there.
Preserve
Protect your elbow joint and manage arthritis or overuse conditions like tennis elbow. Injections and treatments that reduce pain and maintain function.
Repair
Fix structural damage. Ligament tears, loose bodies, or cartilage defects. Surgical procedures that restore elbow stability and movement.
Regenerate
Rebuild damaged elbow cartilage using advanced biological treatments. Restore tissue lost to injury or degeneration.
Replace
When other options are exhausted. Elbow replacement restores function, but only after we have explored every alternative.
Your Options

Preserve: Protect what you still have
Preserve your joint, your movement, and your quality of life. From immediate symptom management to treatments that slow degeneration and protect cartilage.
ChondroFiller
A collagen matrix that fills cartilage defects and supports the body in rebuilding. If you have a focal area of cartilage damage, this is a non-surgical regenerative option only available at LCC in the UK.
Arthrosamid
If you have knee osteoarthritis and want lasting relief without repeated injections, Arthrosamid is a single-dose hydrogel that cushions the joint long-term.
Hyaluronic Acid
Restores the natural lubrication your joint has lost. If your cartilage is wearing and movement feels stiff or grindy, HA reduces friction and eases daily pain.
mFat / Stem Cell
Your own fat tissue processed and injected for tissue regeneration.
Cartilage Micrograft
Harvests healthy cartilage cells from your own body and reimplants them at the damage site. Targets specific defects where the body needs a biological scaffold to rebuild.
Steroid Injection
Rapid relief for acute pain and inflammation. Often used as a first step to manage a flare-up, reduce swelling, and create a window for rehabilitation or further assessment.
PRP
Uses your own blood platelets to accelerate healing. Suited to patients with sports injuries, tendon damage, or early joint wear who want to support the body's natural repair.
PRF
A next-generation blood concentrate that releases growth factors slowly over time. Suited to patients who want longer-lasting biological support for healing tendons, cartilage, and soft tissue.

Take Our AssessmentRepair: Fix specific injuries
You have a specific injury that can be fixed. These treatments restore what is broken. Time is critical for repair - the sooner you act, the more options you have.

Harvests healthy cartilage cells from your own body and reimplants them at the damage site. Targets specific defects where the body needs a biological scaffold to rebuild.
BMAC
Concentrates stem cells from your own bone marrow and delivers them to the damaged area. Suited to patients with cartilage or tendon damage who want to support regeneration biologically.
Ligament Reconstruction
Surgical reconstruction of damaged ligaments to restore stability.
Plica
Removal or treatment of irritated plica tissue causing knee pain.
Cartilage Repair (Surgical)
Surgical cartilage repair techniques to restore joint surface.
