What if your body could help heal itself naturally and effectively? That’s the idea behind orthobiologics. These treatments use your own cells, platelets, or growth factors to support recovery from orthopedic conditions.
Because the cells are extracted from your body, there’s no risk of rejection or allergic reaction.
Unlike traditional treatments that only manage symptoms, orthobiologics focus on treating the underlying cause of pain by reducing inflammation and promoting repair.
Many people notice improved movement with minimal downtime and low risk. At Resilience Orthopedics, we offer several orthobiologic options, each designed to support healing in a unique way. These include:
Book a Consultation with Dr. Pamela Mehta, MD
The Best Orthopedic Surgeon in San Jose
Dr. Mehta is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon who can help you recover from your joint condition. If you:
- Are Suffering From Pain and Mobility Issues
- Need Orthopedic Assessment and Advice
- Want Treatment From a Top Orthopedic Doctor
We Can Help
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
PRP uses a small sample of your blood to concentrate platelets. These platelets are injected into the injured area to reduce pain and support natural recovery.
Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC)
Bone marrow contains stem cells that help repair cartilage, bone, and tendons. BMAC delivers these cells directly to the areas that need repair most.
Stem Cell Therapy
Stem cell therapy may support tissue repair in joints, muscles, and ligaments affected by injury or wear and tear.
Lipogems® Therapy
Lipogems® uses fat-based tissue to support sore joints and soft tissues. It reduces discomfort and helps you move more comfortably.
What Orthobiologics Can Treat
Orthobiologic treatments help the body heal many common musculoskeletal issues:
Joint Pain
These therapies are often used in major joints like the knee, hip, and shoulder to:
- Reduce inflammation around the joint
- Improve range of motion
- Relieve pain so movement feels comfortable
Tendon or Ligament Injuries
Orthobiologics treat common overuse injuries such as rotator cuff tears, tennis elbow, meniscus tears, and Achilles tendonitis. The therapy delivers healing cells to support repair, build strength, and often avoid the need for surgery.
Degenerative Conditions like Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis stiffens joints and wears down cartilage. Orthobiologic therapies may help:
- Add support to worn-out cartilage
- Slow the breakdown process
- Make everyday movement easier
Every injury is different. That’s why Dr. Mehta carefully assesses your condition and pain to determine if orthobiologic therapy is right for you.
Your treatment plan is tailored to your body, so healing feels natural and lasting.
How Orthobiologics Can Help You Heal
Orthobiologic therapies use your body’s own healing power. A small sample, usually blood, bone marrow, or fat tissue, is taken from your body and processed to concentrate growth factors and repair cells.
These cells are then carefully injected into the affected area to stimulate repair and reduce inflammation.
Here’s what the process looks like:
Step 1: Consultation and Imaging
Your visit starts with a review of your imaging and a conversation about the pain you’ve been experiencing.
Dr. Mehta listens carefully to understand what’s going on and helps you find the treatment that’s right for you.
Step 2: Personalized Treatment Plan
After reviewing your condition, Dr. Mehta creates a personalized treatment. Each part of your treatment is carefully selected to fit your specific injury and support your everyday life.
Step 3: The Injection Procedure
Healing cells and growth factors are carefully collected from your own blood, bone marrow, or fat tissue. These concentrated cells are then injected into the injured area using advanced image guidance.
Step 4: Recovery and Follow-Up Care
Most people return to daily activities within days. As you heal, Dr. Mehta closely tracks your progress and adjusts your treatment plan. This supports your body’s natural recovery and strength.
This minimally invasive approach helps you experience:
- Natural healing
- Faster recovery
- Lasting relief
With orthobiologics, you can get back to life without the long downtime often associated with surgery.
