Orthobiologics: Harnessing the Body’s Natural Healing Power

Orthobiologics is revolutionising regenerative medicine by leveraging the body’s natural abilities to repair and rejuvenate damaged tissues. Dr. Thineshchandar’s team specialises in these therapies to address conditions such as osteoarthritis, tendon injuries, and degenerative joint disorders.

Types of Orthobiologic Treatments

Each treatment is carefully recommended following a thorough consultation, designed to address the patient’s unique needs and medical history.

1. Hyaluronic Acid Injections

A natural lubricant, hyaluronic acid reduces pain and enhances joint movement for patients with osteoarthritis.

  • Procedure: Quick, in-office injections into the affected joint.
  • Duration: Typically 15-30 minutes, with multiple sessions based on severity.
  • Results: Relief that can last up to a year.

2. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy

Concentrated platelets from the patient’s blood encourage tissue regeneration, ideal for tendonitis and ligament injuries.

  • Procedure: Blood is drawn, processed to concentrate platelets, then injected into the injured area.
  • Duration: 30-45 minutes.
  • Results: Often visible within weeks; may require several sessions.

3. Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC)

Stem cells from the patient’s bone marrow are concentrated and injected into affected areas for accelerated healing of joint issues.

  • Procedure: Bone marrow is aspirated, processed, and re-injected.
  • Duration: 30-60 minutes, typically in-office.
  • Results: Improvement typically observed within a few months.

4. Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF)

Stem cells from fat tissue provide a powerful regenerative solution for joint and soft tissue injuries.

  • Procedure: Fat tissue is harvested, processed, and injected.
  • Duration: 1-2 hours in an outpatient setting.
  • Results: Benefits are usually seen over several months.

Note : These therapies are advised only after a thorough consultation and tailored to each patient’s needs.
