What is Durolane?
Durolane is a unique, single-injection, high molecular weight hyaluronic acid (HA) therapy

shock-absorber. The HA in Durolane is made with the same material as the natural HA within the human body.

What are the benefits of Durolane injections?
Durolane offers a range of benefits for individuals suffering from joint pain caused by osteoarthritis.
-
As a single-injection treatment containing a high concentration of hyaluronic acid, Durolane helps to restore the natural cushioning and lubrication within the joint, reducing pain and improving mobility. Unlike steroid injections, which primarily target inflammation, Durolane works by enhancing joint function and can provide long-lasting relief—often up to six months or more.
-
It is a non-surgical, minimally invasive option with a low risk of systemic side effects, making it suitable for patients seeking a safer, drug-free alternative.
-
Some patients report up to 12 months of pain relief with relief starting 2 weeks after the injection.
How Does Durolane Work?
Hyaluronic acid is a molecule found naturally throughout the human body. It is an important component of joint fluid, called synovial fluid, which provides lubrication and cushioning in normal, healthy joints.
When you have osteoarthritis of the knee, the hyaluronic acid breaks down and becomes diluted, reducing its natural elastic properties, which can further degrade cartilage tissue and cause increased joint pain.
Hyaluronic acid in osteoarthritic joints has lost its natural viscoelastic properties, which are needed to protect joint tissues. This loss of viscoelasticity means that the synovial fluid no longer retains the ability to absorb shock and protect surrounding cartilage tissue.
The hyaluronic acid in Durolane has the same composition as the natural hyaluronic acid your body produces, but it’s in a highly concentrated formulation that’s been uniquely stabilised to help resist the degradation caused by osteoarthritis.
