ORTHOBIOLOGICS
REGENERATE YOUR BODY FROM WITHIN
Orthobiologics are innovative treatments that harness the body's natural regenerative power to repair and regenerate damaged tissue, reduce inflammation, and relieve pain. They are formulated from the patient's own biological substances or from biotechnological sources, such as:
Platelet-derived growth factor-rich plasma (PRGF)
Mesenchymal stem cells obtained from fat or bone marrow
Heterologous adult stem cells (tissue bank)
Exosomes
These compounds are applied directly to the affected area using minimally invasive techniques, guided by ultrasound or fluoroscopy, to stimulate the repair of tissues such as cartilage, tendons, intervertebral discs, ligaments, and muscles.
What are its benefits?
-
They stimulate regeneration and prevent scarring of damaged tissue.
-
They reduce inflammation and pain in a sustained manner.
-
They improve joint mobility and function.
-
They prevent or delay major surgical interventions.
-
They are outpatient procedures and are safe.
-
They offer rapid recovery and minimal disability.
-
They have a low risk of adverse effects, as they are biocompatible.
-
Most common indications:
-
Osteoarthritis of the knee, hip, shoulder, spine, ankle, wrist
-
Sports injuries (tendinitis, tendinosis, sprains, tears)
-
Chronic joint pain
-
Plantar fasciitis
-
Epicondylitis (tennis elbow)
-
Rotator cuff injuries, labrum injuries, meniscal injuries
-
Degeneration of intervertebral discs
With orthobiologics, medicine is taking a step toward regeneration rather than replacement.
