Most people think of hyaluronic acid (HA) as something used in skincare products. But in orthopedics, it plays a different role.

Hyaluronic acid plays a vital role in how tissue heals and rebuilds. It encourages the growth of new cells and helps them become the specialized cells needed to repair tendons and cartilage.

It’s incredible to see how the same molecule that keeps our skin hydrated also helps drive the science behind regenerative healing.

Few injuries stop athletes in their tracks like a torn or ruptured Achilles tendon. Healing can take many weeks with physical therapy often starting between 6-8 weeks following surgery. Luckily, innovation is changing what recovery can look like.
