We pinpoint the source of your pain and support lasting recovery with proven, effective injections.
Injection therapy delivers medication directly to the site of pain for fast, non-surgical relief, precisely reaching the joint space, tendons, and ligaments with exactly what's needed.
At Seoul Jungseok Orthopedic Clinic, our focus goes beyond simple pain suppression — we center our injection program on regenerative-medicine-based treatments that help damaged tissue heal. From Covered options to the latest Non-Covered regenerative injections, we recommend the treatment best suited to your condition.
Administered directly into the joint space or around tendons and ligaments, offering faster, more precise effects than oral medication.
Biocompatible substances such as PRP, PDRN, and prolotherapy solutions help drive genuine regeneration of damaged tissue.
From injections covered by National Health Insurance to the latest Non-Covered regenerative treatments, you can choose based on your situation.
A sodium hyaluronate formula that replenishes joint lubricating fluid. It reduces friction between worn cartilage surfaces, relieves pain, and helps restore joint function. Covered for Kellgren-Lawrence grade I–III knee osteoarthritis, up to 3 sessions per 6 months.
A gel-form injection made from polynucleotide (PN) extracted from salmon milt. It maintains viscoelasticity within the joint space, providing cushioning and lubrication. Covered up to 5 sessions per 6 months. It cannot be given at the same time as Hyruan, so please tell us about any prior treatment.
An autologous injection made by concentrating platelets from the patient's own blood. Covered for elbow epicondylitis (tennis or golfer's elbow) that hasn't responded to prior steroid treatment. Growth factors directly stimulate regeneration of damaged tendon cells; coverage is limited to 2 sessions per 6 months.
A corticosteroid injection that very quickly and powerfully suppresses inflammation around joints, tendons, and ligaments. Although each dose is small and localized, repeated use carries a higher risk of side effects, so it is generally recommended no more than 3–4 times per year.
Platelet-rich plasma concentrated from your own blood is injected directly into the knee joint space. The various growth factors within the platelets suppress inflammation and promote regeneration of cartilage tissue.
PRP is injected into the subacromial space of the shoulder to treat rotator cuff tendinitis, impingement syndrome, and partial tears. Unlike steroids, it carries no risk of tissue damage even with repeated use.
PRP is injected directly for chronic plantar fasciitis to promote regeneration of the fascial tissue. Whereas repeated steroid injections carry a risk of fat-pad atrophy and fascia rupture, PRP works to strengthen the tissue, making it well suited for long-term treatment.
Polydeoxyribonucleotide (PDRN), extracted from salmon DNA, is injected directly into the damaged area. It binds to adenosine A2A receptors to produce an anti-inflammatory effect, while also stimulating fibroblast activity and growth factor release to promote regeneration of tendons, ligaments, and cartilage.
A concentrated dextrose solution is injected where a damaged ligament or tendon attaches to bone. This triggers an immune response that forms new collagen fibers, fundamentally strengthening weakened ligaments and tendons. The solution itself is harmless to the body, so side effects are minimal and repeat treatment is possible.
A human placental hydrolysate injection prepared by removing blood and hormones and breaking down proteins from human placenta. It contains a range of bioactive substances such as amino acids, nucleic acids, and enzymes, and its approved indication is improving liver function in chronic liver disease. Other potential uses can be discussed during your consultation.
A tissue-regeneration treatment that injects purified collagen (peptides) extracted from porcine tissue directly into the damaged area. Collagen is a key structural component of cartilage, tendons, ligaments, and bone, and supplying it directly to the injury site promotes cell regeneration and proliferation. Unlike steroids or prolotherapy, it does not trigger an inflammatory response, resulting in less post-procedure pain and faster tissue regeneration. It can be applied to joints throughout the body, including the knee, shoulder, lower back, and ankle.
