Cartilage Restoration

Cartilage restoration refers to medical procedures aimed at repairing or regenerating damaged cartilage, the smooth tissue that cushions joints. This damage can lead to pain, reduced mobility, and arthritis. Techniques for cartilage restoration include methods like microfracture, where tiny holes are created in the bone to stimulate new cartilage growth, and cartilage grafting, where cells from healthy cartilage are used to replace damaged areas. These approaches help restore function and alleviate pain, allowing individuals to return to their normal activities and improve their quality of life.
