Osteoarthritis (Stages 0–3) Cartilage defects Meniscus wear Post-injury degeneration Chronic knee pain

Ultrasound or NanoScope visualization identifies the precise cartilage defect A small access portal allows insertion of an 18-gauge cannula 1550 nm fractional laser energy is delivered to stimulate cartilage activity Optional regenerative biologics, PRP, bone marrow concentrate (BMC), or microfragmented adipose tissue (MFAT) may be added to support long-term healing Treatment planning may incorporate BioProfile™ diagnostics and OxeFit™ performance data to personalize biologic selection and recovery strategy

Minimal downtime Walk the same day Light movement encouraged shortly after treatment Return to daily activity in days, depending on individual response Healing cascade may remain active for 8–12 weeks

Reduction in pain and swelling Improved cartilage quality and joint function Increased joint space in appropriate candidates May help delay or avoid knee replacement surgery

Degenerative disc disease Recurrent disc herniation Chronic low-back pain limiting activity or performance

Using image guidance, fractional laser energy is applied to targeted disc cartilage to stimulate collagen activity, cellular repair, and improved hydration without open spine surgery or lengthy hospital recovery. Advanced biologic profiling and objective performance analytics may be used to guide treatment decisions and post-procedure recovery.

Minimally invasive, outpatient procedure Supports disc tissue health and function Reduces pain and improves mobility in appropriate candidates Faster return to work and daily activity compared to surgery

Our Services

CartiNova offers minimally invasive, image-guided regenerative procedures designed to support cartilage repair, reduce inflammation, and restore mobility, without traditional orthopedic surgery.

Knee Regeneration

CartiNova’s knee regeneration approach addresses both cartilage damage and the biological factors that influence joint healing and durability.

Spine Disc Regeneration

CartiNova’s spine regeneration approach targets degenerative disc changes while accounting for the biological processes that affect spinal healing and long-term function.

Precision Diagnostics & Performance Intelligence

BioProfile™

Structural findings alone do not explain why tissue degenerates or how well it will heal. We use the BioProfile to evaluate key biological factors that influence cartilage and disc health, including inflammation, cellular repair capacity, metabolic efficiency, and biologic aging pathways.

By combining advanced diagnostics with AI-assisted analysis, the BioProfile™ helps inform treatment planning, biologic selection, and recovery strategy so care is designed around how each patient’s body is most likely to respond.

OxeFit™ Performance & Recovery Analytics

Regeneration does not end with a procedure. CartiNova integrates OxeFit™ performance analytics to objectively measure strength, load tolerance, range of motion, and neuromuscular efficiency throughout recovery.

These data-driven insights allow care teams to adjust rehabilitation and activity progression in real time, supporting safer return to movement, reduced compensations, and improved long-term durability.

Biologic Enhancements

CartiNova integrates regenerative biologic therapies that may be paired with laser treatment to optimize outcomes. These therapies use the body’s own biologic materials to support tissue repair.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP): Supports collagen production and tissue repair
Bone Marrow Concentrate (BMC): Concentrated cellular therapy for structural support
Microfragmented Adipose Tissue (MFAT): Adipose-derived biologic material commonly used in joint preservation care

Your physician will determine the most appropriate approach based on diagnostic imaging, clinical findings, activity goals, and overall candidacy.

Optional Biologic Preservation (in partnership with Forever Labs)

For select patients undergoing BMC or MFAT procedures, CartiNova works with Forever Labs, a certified biobank, to offer the option of preserving a portion of harvested biologic material. This allows patients to retain access to their own cells for potential future physician-directed therapies as regenerative medicine continues to evolve.

Biologic preservation is optional and not required for treatment.
