Regenerative Medicine

Regenerative medicine uses your pet’s own natural healing tools to repair damaged tissue, reduce inflammation and ease pain. Because the treatment comes from your pet’s own body, there is very little risk of rejection or allergic reaction.

Stem Cell Therapy

Stem cells are the body’s repair cells. They help calm inflammation, support healing and encourage damaged tissue to rebuild.

To collect them, we take a small sample of fat, usually from the belly or shoulder area, while your pet is under a short anaesthetic or sedation. The sample is processed to concentrate the stem cells, which are then injected directly into the problem area, such as an arthritic joint or an injured ligament. Any remaining cells can often be stored for future treatments, so your pet won’t need another collection.

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Therapy

Platelets are best known for helping blood clot, but they also release growth factors that kick-start the body’s natural repair process.

PRP treatment begins with a simple blood sample, much like a routine blood test. We spin the blood in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelets, then inject this platelet-rich plasma into the affected area. The whole process is usually completed in a single visit.

Better Together

Stem cells and PRP are often used together. The growth factors in PRP help the stem cells work more effectively, which can lead to a stronger healing response.

What to Expect

Most pets go home the same day. Many owners notice improvements in comfort and mobility within a few weeks, with benefits often continuing to build over two to three months. Some pets benefit from repeat treatments, and your vet will create a plan tailored to your pet’s needs.

Every pet is different, and results vary depending on the condition and its severity. Book a consultation and we’ll let you know whether regenerative treatment is right for your pet.
