Who is it for?

Abnormal wear and tear of the articular cartilage surfaces, known as arthrosis, is now a widespread disease. According to some estimates, this affects 15 to 20 per cent of older people. Biovisc Ortho Plus™ is recommended for the symptomatic treatment of degenerative joint diseases. A Biovisc Ortho Plus™ injection administered into the joint cavity relieves pain and improves joint mobility in the long term through its exceptional moisture-retaining and shock-absorbing properties.

Active, competitive sports and bodybuilding put extreme stress on the joints, which can lead to the cartilage surface of joints wearing out faster. As the need for free and painless movement is of utmost importance, articular cartilage damage should always be treated as quickly as possible in order to maintain the possibility of pain-free movement.

Previous damage to the joint and cartilage, joint diseases or articular surgery are often implicated as triggers or predisposing factors in cartilage damage. Biovisc Ortho Plus™ provides mechanical protection and acts as a lubricant.
