Revolutionary Treatment for Knee Osteoarthritis
Knee osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis, affecting millions of people worldwide. While joint replacement surgery is effective, it is also a major invasive procedure with a lengthy recovery period. But now, there’s an alternative.

Introducing Arthrosamid®
Arthrosamid® is a non-biodegradable injectable polyacrylamide hydrogel (2.5% iPAAG) implant consisting of 2.5% cross-linked polyacrylamide and 97.5% water. It is administered via a simple, one-step procedure performed under local anaesthesia by Mr Numan Shah — ensuring you’re in and out of the clinic the same day. Arthrosamid® is proven to maintain a significant, long-lasting reduction in knee OA pain — even five years post-treatment.
How does Arthrosamid® work?
Arthrosamid® is the first and only permanent injectable implant that integrates with the knee’s synovial tissue, forming a scaffold that softens and increases tissue elasticity. This leads to decreased joint stiffness, reduced pain, and improved knee function.

Proven Results
• Over 20 years of research and development.
• Safe and effective for its intended use, even five years post-treatment.
• Around 1,200,000 syringes of 2.5% iPAAG have been made for human use.
