Crespine Gel Pain Treatment for OA Complaints
A good innovation has a long-lasting effect! Crespine Gel is a very stable, visco-elastic gel implant for the treatment of osteoarthritis in e.g., the knee and hip. It is a medical device, produced by BioPolymer in Germany, in a unique and pharmaceutical process. A single treatment with an injection of 2 ml Crespine Gel is often sufficient for lasting pain relief for osteoarthritis complaints, with an effective duration of 9 to 12 months. It provides lubrication and shock absorption in the affected joint.

Crespine Gel is produced in a process of ‘double cross-linking’. This results in a gel with a three-dimensional network structure, built of numerous bonds, with an ultrahigh molecular mass. The implant is very resistant to breakdown and it is especially easy to inject.

In many cases, osteoarthritis manifests itself through two symptoms: pain in the joint and stiffness. A treatment with Crespine Gel is aimed at both of these symptoms. Patients experience a very welcome, long-lasting pain relief and an almost complete reduction in stiffness.
