Hip Tendon Tear Recovery Without Surgery

Yes. At Regenexx we have successfully treated hip tendon tears without surgery. Whether a hip tendon tear is due to an acute injury or a degenerative condition, interventional orthopedic procedures can reduce pain and may help your body promote its own abilities to heal tendon tears without surgery. That means a shorter recovery time and fewer potential complications as compared with invasive hip surgeries.

How Does Regenexx Work?

Regenexx physicians use image guidance technology to precisely inject your own bone marrow concentrate — which contains stems cells — directly where it’s needed to repair damaged tissue in the hip joint structure.1-3 

The cells in your bone marrow concentrate work at the site of your injury to promote the growth of new, healthy tissue that aids in the stabilization of your hip joint for better function and mobility.4

Am I a candidate?

During appointments, Regenexx physicians examine your body in motion and may use ultrasound to observe the inner workings of the hip in real time. This gives them a more accurate picture of what’s contributing to your pain, how function is affected, and the root cause of the problem. 

Once you’ve been evaluated, your physician will customize a treatment plan based on your specific needs. Our treatments include:

Regenexx-SD: a patented protocol using bone marrow concentrate that contains stem cells

Regenexx-SCP: a proprietary formulation of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) that’s more concentrated than what a basic bedside centrifuge can produce

Regenexx-PL: platelet lysate, which is a highly specialized derivative of platelet-rich plasma (PRP)
