Rotator Cuff – LUX LABS

Treatment For Torn Rotator Cuff Without Surgery

Rejuvenexx outpatient procedures use custom concentrations of your body’s natural healing agents to treat rotator cuff tears without surgery. Treatments use only your own blood to make super-concentrated platelet-rich plasma (PRP) or your own bone marrow concentrate (BMC), which contains stem cells. Downtime is a fraction of what it is with surgery and generally requires little or no need for opioid pain medications or time off of work.

Can A Rotator Cuff Heal Without Surgery?

In many cases, the answer is yes.

Physical therapy can promote improved blood supply and strengthen the muscles of the rotator cuff. A 2014 study determined that, upon one year of follow-up, physical therapy was equally effective to rotator cuff surgery in terms of regaining physical strength and range of motion in study participants (55 years of age or older).

Rejuvenexx procedures can be a better alternative for people looking to avoid surgery, lengthy recovery, and overuse of prescription pain medication.

How Long Does It Take For A Torn Rotator Cuff To Heal Without Surgery?

Patients treated without surgery with Rejuvenexx procedures usually return to their daily activities within two to five days. In comparison, rotator cuff surgery recovery time is extensive and can take anywhere from six months to a year to completely heal.

Is Rejuvenexx Right for Your Rotator Cuff Tear?

At Rejuvenexx, we are dedicated to giving you the information you need to make an informed decision about your best treatment option.

During your initial appointment, your Rejuvenexx doctor will use our four-part SANS (stability, articulation, neuromuscular, and symmetry) evaluation to identify the underlying causes of your pain. Your doctor will examine your injury through a full range of motion and may use ultrasound to observe the inner workings in real time.

This approach gives a more accurate picture of the root cause of your pain.

Rejuvenexx for Rotator Cuff Tears: Patients’ Results

Take a look below at the outcomes of two of our patients who chose to have a Rejuvenexx procedure for rotator cuff tear repair instead of surgery.

Scroll the arrow to the right to see the MRI of the rotator cuff before the treatment and to the left to see the outcome. The BEFORE shows a torn rotator cuff. The arrow points at a gap where the tendon should be. Once treated, the area will look like a dark band going diagonally, as seen on the AFTER.
