Regenerative Medicine for joints takes a different approach than most conventional joint pain treatments: rather than masking pain, it aims to help the joint actually heal. The therapy uses Platelet-Rich Plasma, or PRP, drawn from your own blood, along with exosomes that support cell-to-cell communication, to stimulate tissue repair and calm the inflammation driving your pain. It is used for knees, hips, shoulders, and other joints affected by arthritis, tendonitis, and general wear from years of use or old injuries. Most patients begin noticing improvement within a few weeks to months, with results that can last from several months to years depending on the joint, the condition, and how the body responds.
For patients in Hot Springs, Hot Springs Village, and Lake Hamilton who have been managing joint pain for years, often being told that surgery or a joint replacement is the only real option left, this offers a genuinely different path. It is not right for every case, and we are honest about that at your consultation, but for many patients dealing with arthritis, tendonitis, or an old injury that never fully settled, it provides real relief without an operating room.
This is a fair question, and an honest one deserves an honest answer. For some patients, particularly those with early to moderate joint degeneration, regenerative therapy can meaningfully delay or even prevent the need for surgery. For patients with more advanced joint damage, it may buy meaningful time and comfort rather than replace surgery altogether. We will look at your specific joint, your imaging if available, and your goals, and tell you plainly which category you are likely to fall into rather than overselling what this treatment can do.
Adults dealing with joint pain from arthritis, tendonitis, or old injuries who want to explore an alternative to surgical intervention are strong candidates. The severity of joint damage matters, and we will review your specific situation honestly at a consultation before recommending this path.
Most patients notice improvements within a few weeks to a few months as the regenerative process takes hold, since this therapy works with your body’s own healing timeline rather than delivering an instant fix.
Results can last several months to years, varying based on the joint being treated, the underlying condition, and lifestyle factors like activity level and weight.
Downtime is minimal. Some temporary soreness or swelling at the injection site is common and typically resolves within a few days.
Avoid anti-inflammatory medications like ibuprofen before and after treatment, since these can interfere with the healing response the therapy relies on. We will provide complete pre- and post-treatment instructions specific to your joint and condition.
A straightforward injection of PRP and/or exosomes directly into the affected joint, generally well tolerated and completed within a single office visit.
