Chronic hip pain limits daily activities and reduces quality of life for many Hong Kong residents, and the high cost of private orthopaedic surgery in the territory adds to the challenge. Regenerative hip therapy uses fluoroscopy-guided biological treatments to address cartilage loss deep within the hip joint without surgery. Our Chiang Mai clinic, under three hours from HKIA, offers this non-surgical approach with Cantonese-speaking support and coordination with your Hong Kong medical team.
Hip regenerative therapy uses fluoroscopy-guided biological treatments to address cartilage loss, labral damage, and chronic hip joint inflammation. The fluoroscopy guidance ensures accurate delivery of regenerative agents to the deep hip joint, which cannot be safely accessed without imaging. Treatment includes comprehensive orthopaedic assessment with hip imaging, followed by fluoroscopy-guided injection of regenerative biologicals into the hip joint capsule.

Hong Kong patients choose regenerative hip therapy because fluoroscopy-guided delivery ensures accurate access to the deep hip joint, a level of precision that is essential for effective treatment. The non-surgical approach avoids the three to six month recovery typical of hip replacement surgery. Treatment costs represent a fraction of what private hip surgery would cost domestically, and Cantonese-speaking support ensures clear communication throughout. Detailed treatment records are provided for coordination with your Hong Kong specialist or physiotherapist.
For early to moderate degeneration, yes, potentially by years.
Under fluoroscopic guidance for safe, accurate access.

Waiting lists for hip replacement surgery under Hong Kong's Hospital Authority routinely extend to two to three years. During this period, patients often experience progressive pain and functional decline with limited treatment options beyond physiotherapy and medication.
The MCHK does not have established guidelines for regenerative hip therapies, and practitioners are restricted from promoting non-conventional approaches. There are no established clinics in Hong Kong offering fluoroscopy-guided biological hip treatments in the private sector.
Yes. Our Cantonese-speaking team supports you from initial consultation through treatment and follow-up, ensuring clear communication at every stage.
