Clinical Evidence

We are happy to announce we have four published papers based on data from patients we have treated at Living Room Health Regenerative Treatments. Our most recent is a paper on the use of MFAT and PRP to treat hip osteoarthritis which you can read here.

Micro-Fragmented Adipose Tissue (MFAT) (using Lipogems®) is a new and innovative treatment that has helped over 35,000 patients worldwide. It has been extensively researched, please see some of the key clinical papers below for more information.

PRP therapy is an effective and well researched treatment. It has been widely used in sport injuries as well as in aesthetic medicine. To find out more, please see the clinical evidence below.

To see how the treatment could help you make an appointment our multidisciplinary team or call 0330 2233332 for more information.

Dr. Mikel Sánchez explains how his recent study supports the safety and efficacy of PRP for pain relief and improved function in patients with osteoarthritis in the hip.
