London Cartilage Clinic (0330-043-2571) has introduced a stem cell therapy program to treat knee pain, offering shorter recovery periods compared to conventional surgical methods.
-- The new stem cell therapy program provides patients with a minimally invasive alternative to traditional surgery, and is now available at the facility's private clinic on Harley Street in London.

According to the State of Musculoskeletal Health 2024 report by Versus Arthritis, 5.4 million people in the UK are affected by knee osteoarthritis—the leading cause of chronic knee pain. The report also states that more than 20 million people live with musculoskeletal conditions, with knee-related pain among the most common complaints.
London Cartilage Clinic uses Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) derived from the patient's own body. Once extracted, the cells are processed and re-injected into the affected knee. Rather than forming new cartilage directly, the MSCs release signals that stimulate the body's natural repair mechanisms, encouraging existing cartilage cells to regenerate.
"This approach improves mobility and relieves pain by activating the body's own healing response," said a London Cartilage Clinic representative.
The procedure targets a range of knee conditions, including osteoarthritis, cartilage damage, and sports-related injuries. Patients typically experience shorter recovery times compared to those undergoing joint surgery, allowing many to resume normal activities more quickly.
The new therapy aims to reduce patients' reliance on surgical interventions, especially joint replacements. By using the patient's own cells, the risk of complications or rejection is significantly reduced.
