MIBRAR® for Tendinopathy — Tendon Regeneration Without Surgery

Tendinopathy is a chronic tendon injury that manifests as pain, limited mobility, and reduced function. Tendons have very limited blood supply, which is why they heal slowly and often incompletely. MIBRAR® delivers stem cells and growth factors directly to the injury zone, initiating full regeneration.

Tendinopathy: Why Tendons Heal Poorly

Tendons are dense connective tissue structures with minimal blood supply. Under chronic overload or injury, collagen fibers break down faster than they regenerate. Areas of degeneration, micro-tears, and scar tissue form.

Traditional treatment methods have limitations:

• Rest and NSAIDs — reduce inflammation but do not restore tissue
• Corticosteroids — short-term effect, weaken tendon with repeated injections
• Shockwave therapy — stimulates blood flow but not regeneration
• Surgery — scar tissue resection, prolonged rehabilitation

How MIBRAR® Restores Tendons

The ARK® concentrate is injected under ultrasound guidance directly into the tendon injury zone:

• Stem cells differentiate into tenocytes — tendon tissue cells
• Growth factors stimulate type I collagen synthesis
• Neovascularization begins — formation of new capillaries
• Scar tissue is replaced by normal tendon tissue

Locations and Indications

• Achilles tendon — tendinopathy and partial tears
• Shoulder joint — rotator cuff tendinopathy, partial tears
• Knee joint — "jumper's knee", patellar tendinitis
• Elbow joint — epicondylitis (tennis/golfer's elbow)
• Plantar fascia — plantar fasciitis, heel spur

Results and Cost

• Pain reduction — from the first days
• Tendon structure restoration on ultrasound — 4–12 weeks
• Overall improvement up to 85% — by 8–16 weeks
