Using molecular technology to repair the worn joint surfaces of patients with knee osteoarthritis, this method does not require medication, surgery, or recovery time, allowing individuals to maintain their daily activities throughout the treatment process.
Currently, there are a variety of medical options available for treatment, such as PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and synthetic joint lubricants. Each treatment option must be considered based on the patient’s symptoms and severity on an individual basis to determine the most suitable approach for each problem.
Q: What type of patients are suitable for treatment with synthetic joint injections?
A: Patients with knee osteoarthritis who do not respond to medication but are not yet in need of surgery may benefit from synthetic joint injections. This treatment option can help extend the functionality of the joint by approximately six months. Additionally, it is suitable for those with surface injuries, such as patellar injuries, and can also be used in rehabilitation after surgery to facilitate quicker recovery of injured joints.

Knee osteoarthritis is a condition where the knee joint degenerates over time due to factors such as daily activities, excessive body weight, or underlying health conditions. This leads to the deterioration of the articular cartilage in the knee, causing it to wear away so that the cartilage cannot support weight as effectively as before. Additionally, the loss of synovial fluid in the knee joint results in noises when moving the joint, along with symptoms of pain, inflammation, swelling, and redness.
Non-surgical treatments focus on restoring the joint surface and reducing pain by using biomolecular technology to repair the worn cartilage. This method does not require surgery, medication, or steroids, thereby reducing risks and potential side effects.
This treatment program is tailored to each individual. Doctors and physiotherapists identify the causes of pain, assess injuries and degeneration to address problems directly, using modern equipment imported from abroad to enhance comprehensive treatment efficiency. This ensures effective knee osteoarthritis rehabilitation that meets the needs of each person.
An orthopedic specialist will diagnose the cause of knee pain, along with a physical assessment by expert physiotherapists to analyze individual movements, planning effective treatment for each patient.
Begin physiotherapy to rehabilitate muscles, ligaments, and nerves using modern medical equipment imported from abroad to balance and stimulate the repair of joint surfaces.
This involves injecting biomolecular substances that help restore the joint surface. This technology can repair and rejuvenate the worn cartilage in patients with knee osteoarthritis. The treatment is conducted by orthopedic specialists using standardized and safe procedures.
Analyze behaviors and risk factors that may contribute to knee osteoarthritis in each individual to plan behavioral modifications during treatment, making the results sustainable.
