Viscosupplementation

It is a procedure that involves infiltrating high-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid into a joint to improve the characteristics of synovial fluid, relieving pain and optimizing joint function.

Synovial fluid is a viscous fluid within joints that lubricates, absorbs energy, and nourishes the cartilage.

This procedure is ideal for large joints, such as the knee, hip, shoulder, and ankle, and has limited use in small joints.
