Cartilage Chronicles w/ Dr. Turner 💡

Motion is lotion. Most of us know how important staying active is to overall health, but movement does more than just burn calories.

Regular activity helps decrease stiffness and soreness while improving mobility, which is why exercise is recommended by most healthcare providers.

Simply put: the more you move correctly, the better you feel.

What can you expect after your RegenaLase procedure?

No strict limitations are in place. Initially, reduce volume and intensity on the treated limb. After 3 days, increase the workload determined by your BioProfile and OxeFit assessment.

Movement is encouraged through your full range of motion immediately as tolerated. Most patients will return to banded resistance and dumbbells within the first week with heavier lifts on days 7-14.

Smart movement supports healing. Precision doesn’t stop at treatment, it continues through recovery.

Ever wondered what a precision cartilage regeneration procedure looks like?
We begin with a diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound to map your cartilage in real time. No guesswork. Using that image, we customize the RegenaLase approach specific to your joint.

The 1550nm fractional laser is then precisely guided to the damaged cartilage, creating controlled microthermal zones that activate your body’s natural cartilage repair.

You leave with a personalized recovery plan and follow-up imaging, because precision is what drives results.

Questions about the process? We’re here to help.

Meet Jessica, 58. A lifelong runner with 17 full marathons and 129 half marathons under her belt, now chasing a Boston qualification.

Years of knee pain from osteoarthritis nearly sidelined her after being told to stop running altogether. Just 4 weeks after a single CartiNova treatment, Jessica ran a half-marathon pain-free. Her words say it best: “I felt no pain for the entire race.”

Because when passion meets the right care, the finish line is never out of reach.

Dr. Turner’s Tip Thursday⭐

Your joints need movement to heal. While pain often makes you want to rest completely, cartilage has no blood supply. It relies on motion to bring in nutrients and flush out waste, just like squeezing a sponge.

The goal is to find your “Goldilocks zone”: not too much movement that causes sharp pain, but not so little that stiffness worsens. Gentle, controlled activity like walking, swimming, cycling, or PT exercises keeps joints healthy, and avoiding long periods of sitting helps too.

Motion is truly lotion for your joints. If you’re unsure what movements are right for you, drop your questions below.

What Happens After Your RegenaLase Treatment?

Here's the truth: healing takes time, but not the kind of time surgery requires.

After treatment, your aspiration site may be sore. Then? Your body gets to work. Within 2-4 weeks, most patients notice decreased pain and improved mobility.

Over the next 8-12 weeks, your chondrocytes are busy rebuilding, producing fresh collagen, proliferating new cartilage, filling in defects.

The key? Keep moving. Motion helps your body heal faster. Your doctor will guide you with a tailored physical therapy plan.

No long hospital stays. No months of immobility. Just your body doing what it does best, healing with precision.
