Treatment Overview
What are regenerative injections? A safe, non-surgical option that involves a simple injection to stimulate healing, reduce inflammation, and restore function. The injection only takes 30 seconds, with no down time and no need for anesthesia.
Usually it's only 1 shot for years of relief. See the videos of real local Texarkana patients below.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take?
The regenerative medicine treatment typically involves just one injection. There’s no downtime required, so patients can return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure.
Will I feel relief right away?
Relief is not always immediate. These treatments are designed to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes, so improvements usually happen gradually over time. The timeline can vary depending on the patient.
Is it covered by insurance?
Most insurances pay for general charges of office visits, xrays, injection codes, but the actual injected material is not a medication. It is a tissue transplant similar to getting blood from the blood bank. So insurance does not pay for that part. The cost can range from $2500 to $3500 and we do have financing available to help spread that over 12-18 months if you need it. If you are an Arkansas resident and not disabled, you may be able to get a grant from the state of Arkansas.
What are the risks?
The clinic emphasizes that regenerative medicine avoids the common risks associated with surgery. There’s no anesthesia, no surgical infection risk, and no required downtime. Since it uses your existing knee, patients also retain full motion. In contrast, traditional surgery involves higher costs, weeks of rehab, and greater risk for complications.
