This gentleman underwent Stromal vascular fraction ( SVF) treatment for knee arthritis instead of knee replacement. Listen to his story and then understand from this article how SVF treatment differs from total knee replacement.
SVF (Stromal Vascular Fraction) treatment differs from knee replacement in several ways:
- SVF treatment uses the patient’s own fat tissue to regenerate joint cells and improve joint function, while joint replacement uses artificial implants.
- SVF treatment is less invasive, with a faster recovery time, compared to knee replacement surgery.
- SVF treatment aims to promote natural healing and regeneration, while knee replacement only replaces the damaged joint with a synthetic one.
- SVF treatment has shown promising results for joint pain relief and improved joint function, but its long-term efficacy is still being studied, while joint replacement has a well-established track record.
- SVF treatment may be a good option for patients who are not suitable candidates for joint replacement surgery, due to age or other medical conditions..
