orthobiologic regenerative therapy

Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF) is an advanced regenerative therapy used in orthopaedics to treat joint, tendon, ligament, and cartilage injuries. SVF is derived from a patient’s own adipose (fat) tissue, which contains a rich mix of regenerative cells, including mesenchymal stem cells, growth factors, and immune-modulating cells. The process involves extracting a small amount of fat—typically from the abdomen or thigh—then processing it to isolate the SVF. This concentrated cell solution is then injected into the affected area to reduce inflammation, support tissue repair, and promote healing. SVF therapy is commonly used for conditions like osteoarthritis, tendonitis, and cartilage degeneration. It is minimally invasive and may delay or even reduce the need for surgery in some patients. Because it uses the patient’s own cells, SVF treatment carries a low risk of adverse reaction. It is often considered part of the broader field of orthobiologics and regenerative medicine, aimed at enhancing the body’s natural healing processes.
