Viscosupplementation

At Advanced Center for Orthopedics & Sports Medicine, we are committed to providing our patients with access to the latest and most advanced nonsurgical treatment options. As a part of this commitment, our specialty-trained doctors offer viscosupplementation.

Viscosupplementation is a nonsurgical procedure that involves injecting a gel-like fluid into a joint, most commonly the knee joint. This gel-like fluid acts as a lubricant as well as a shock absorber, which not only helps the joint move smoothly but also bear weight.

Additionally, viscosupplementation can help patients:

• Avoid or delay surgery
• Decrease pain
• Improve mobility
• Reduce swelling and inflammation
