If joint pain is holding you back from living your best life, you’re not alone. At AZ Orthopedic, we understand how frustrating it is when stiffness and discomfort limit your movement. Cartilage restoration  is a specialized treatment designed to repair damaged cartilage in joints such as your knee, ankle, or shoulder. Whether your pain comes from an injury or everyday wear and tear, untreated cartilage damage can worsen, leading to joint deterioration and loss of mobility.

You deserve a solution that helps you move freely again, without jumping straight to joint replacement surgery. Our team is here to guide you with personalized cartilage repair options tailored to your unique condition and lifestyle, helping you avoid invasive procedures and get back to what you love faster. Contact AZ Orthopedic today to schedule your personalized consultation and discover how cartilage restoration  can help you reclaim your active lifestyle and avoid the disruption of major surgery.

Choosing cartilage restoration means choosing to regain control over your body and your future. Here’s what you can expect when you work with us:

Every patient’s needs are different, so your treatment plan will be as unique as you are. Here’s how we’ll guide you through the process:

Step 1: Comprehensive Evaluation

We start with detailed diagnostic imaging and a thorough physical exam to precisely understand the extent of your cartilage damage.

Step 2: Minimally Invasive Surgery (When Recommended)

If surgery is necessary, we use small incisions and arthroscopic techniques to reduce pain and promote faster recovery.

Step 3: Cartilage Repair or Replacement

Based on your specific condition, we either stimulate your body’s natural cartilage growth or transplant healthy cartilage from a donor or another part of your body.

Step 4: Outpatient Procedure

Many patients can go home the same day, minimizing disruption to their daily lives.
