At the London Cartilage Clinic, we offer a range of joint pain relief options, including traditional treatments like Synvisc and Synvisc One injections, as well as more modern, purely synthetic alternatives with improved molecular structures. Our aim is to provide the most effective and safe treatments tailored to each patient’s needs.
Synvisc, a well-known form of viscosupplementation, is a gel-like fluid similar to the body’s natural hyaluronic acid. It provides lubrication and cushioning in the joint, easing pain and improving mobility. Synvisc One, its advanced version, offers the same benefits with the convenience of a single injection. However, as Synvisc is not purely synthetic, it may cause allergic reactions in some individuals.
Recognising the limitations of traditional options like Synvisc, the London Cartilage Clinic also offers modern synthetic injections. These alternatives boast an improved molecular structure, providing enhanced safety and efficacy. They are ideal for patients seeking advanced, non-allergenic treatment options for joint pain.
Our clinic prides itself on offering a variety of joint pain relief options, from traditional treatments like Synvisc and Synvisc One to modern synthetic alternatives. We work closely with our patients to determine the most suitable treatment based on their individual needs and preferences.
The duration of pain relief varies between treatments. Synvisc One can offer relief for several months, while modern synthetic alternatives may provide a different duration of effectiveness, depending on the individual’s response.
While Synvisc injections are generally safe, there is a potential for allergic reactions due to its non-synthetic nature. Our clinic also offers purely synthetic alternatives to mitigate this risk.
Our specialists will conduct a thorough assessment to recommend the most suitable injection, whether it be Synvisc, Synvisc One, or a modern synthetic alternative, based on your specific condition and medical history.
