Precise ultrasound-guided procedures to treat injuries and conditions with effectiveness and safety.
**Visco Plus** is an advanced approach that combines two innovative techniques—Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) and viscosupplementation—to promote joint regeneration and alleviate pain. Performed under ultrasound guidance, this combination offers a personalized and effective treatment for patients with joint conditions.
Visco Plus consists of the combined administration of PRP and hyaluronic acid into the affected joint. PRP, obtained from the patient's own blood, contains growth factors that stimulate tissue regeneration. On the other hand, viscosupplementation provides lubrication and structural support to the joints, improving their function.
Visco Plus is indicated for patients with osteoarthritis, joint injuries, tendinopathies, and other conditions affecting joint function.

Tudo o que precisas de saber.
Visco Plus is a combined injectable treatment that brings together hyaluronic acid and Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) in a single formulation. It combines the lubricating and protective properties of hyaluronic acid with the regenerative potential of PRP to support joint function and relieve symptoms.
Visco Plus may be a beneficial option for patients with moderate to advanced osteoarthritis, particularly when the goal is to combine the complementary benefits of hyaluronic acid and PRP in a single treatment session.
Not necessarily. The procedure is performed under ultrasound guidance on an outpatient basis, using a technique similar to that of conventional viscosupplementation.
Visco Plus is primarily used for the knee and hip, the major weight-bearing joints most commonly affected by osteoarthritis.
Recovery is generally brief and similar to that of other intra-articular injections. Mild local discomfort may occur for a few days after the procedure but typically resolves spontaneously.
