ChondroFiller targets ICRS Grade III–IV cartilage damage, where more than half the cartilage is lost or bone is exposed. Delivered as an ultrasound-guided outpatient injection, the collagen scaffold recruits the patient's own progenitor cells to initiate repair.ChondroFiller targets ICRS Grade III–IV cartilage damage, where more than half the cartilage is lost or bone is exposed.

ChondroFiller IKDC and MOCART scoresChondroFiller IKDC and MOCART scores
ChondroFiller patients' functional-outcome scores (IKDC) gain approximately 30 points within 12 months, rising from ~48 to ~80, whilst structural MRI (MOCART) markers advance from 65 to 81–84 — dual tracks converging on tissue repair and restored joint function.ChondroFiller patients' functional-outcome scores (IKDC) gain approximately 30 points within 12 months, rising from ~48 to ~80, whilst structural MRI (MOCART) markers advance from 65 to 81–84 — dual tracks converging on tissue repair and restored joint function.

Across 19,000+ treated cases worldwide, ChondroFiller has a complication rate of 0.06%; 70–85% of patients with focal cartilage defects achieve meaningful symptom relief over 3–5 years through a collagen scaffold that recruits the patient's own repair cells.Across 19,000+ treated cases worldwide, ChondroFiller has a complication rate of 0.06%; 70–85% of patients with focal cartilage defects achieve meaningful symptom relief over 3–5 years through a collagen scaffold that recruits the patient's own repair cells.

ChondroFiller's collagen scaffold biodegrades within 6–24 months, yet provides lasting clinical benefit by recruiting the patient's own cells to form repair tissue; 70–85% of well-selected patients maintain meaningful symptom relief at three to five years.ChondroFiller's collagen scaffold biodegrades within 6–24 months, yet provides lasting clinical benefit by recruiting the patient's own cells to form repair tissue; 70–85% of well-selected patients maintain meaningful symptom relief at three to five years.
ChondroFiller injection cost in the UKChondroFiller injection cost in the UK
ChondroFiller injections cost £3,000 to £8,000 based on the number of implant boxes required, not an hourly rate, with most patients paying £3,000 for a single focal defect.ChondroFiller injections cost £3,000 to £8,000 based on the number of implant boxes required, not an hourly rate, with most patients paying £3,000 for a single focal defect.

ChondroFiller combined with BMAC for cartilage repairChondroFiller combined with BMAC for cartilage repair
A collagen scaffold traps bone-marrow stem cells in cartilage defects, preventing the clearance by synovial fluid that normally occurs within hours and enabling repair in a single outpatient appointment without surgery.A collagen scaffold traps bone-marrow stem cells in cartilage defects, preventing the clearance by synovial fluid that normally occurs within hours and enabling repair in a single outpatient appointment without surgery.

ChondroFiller targets Grade III and IV cartilage damage—focal defects or distributed osteoarthritis—using a collagen scaffold to support biological repair across both presentations, provided joint mechanical stability remains intact.ChondroFiller targets Grade III and IV cartilage damage—focal defects or distributed osteoarthritis—using a collagen scaffold to support biological repair across both presentations, provided joint mechanical stability remains intact.

ChondroFiller's repair tissue outlasts the scaffold itself: the collagen dissolves within two years, but tissue built by the patient's own progenitor cells persists for three to five years.ChondroFiller's repair tissue outlasts the scaffold itself: the collagen dissolves within two years, but tissue built by the patient's own progenitor cells persists for three to five years.

ChondroFiller injection after tibial plateau fractureChondroFiller injection after tibial plateau fracture
Cartilage damage from tibial plateau fractures does not repair itself, leading to progressive joint wear. ChondroFiller, a collagen scaffold injected under ultrasound, recruits the patient's own cells to generate hyaline-like repair tissue; three-year data show functional improvement of 32.4 points, exceeding the threshold for meaningful clinical benefit.Cartilage damage from tibial plateau fractures does not repair itself, leading to progressive joint wear.
