Biologics & Regenerative Medicine
Dr. Raffo uses biologic therapies to support and accelerate healing after orthopedic procedures. These treatments harness the body's own repair mechanisms and advanced biomaterials to improve surgical outcomes.
Regeneten Bioinductive Implant
The Regeneten bioinductive implant is used to augment rotator cuff repairs. It promotes the growth of new tendon-like tissue over the repair site, adding a biological layer of reinforcement. Dr. Raffo uses this in select rotator cuff repairs where augmentation can improve healing rates and long-term durability.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
PRP concentrates the patient's own platelets and growth factors to promote tissue healing. Dr. Raffo uses PRP injections for select tendon injuries, early-stage osteoarthritis, and as a post-surgical healing adjunct.
When Biologics Are Used
Not every patient needs biologics, and Dr. Raffo tailors each treatment plan to the individual. Biologics are most often used in conjunction with surgical repair — not as standalone treatments — to give the body the best chance of durable healing.
