ACP Max – Advanced Biological Treatment for Joints, Tendons and Muscles
Persistent pain or long-standing conditions that have not improved with conventional treatments?
ACP Max is an advanced biological treatment based on the body’s own growth factors, used for more pronounced or chronic conditions affecting joints, tendons and muscles.
At Elit Ortopedi in Stockholm, ACP Max is used as part of an individualised treatment strategy for osteoarthritis, joint disorders, tendon injuries and sports-related injuries.
All ACP Max treatments are always preceded by a thorough specialist assessment, where we determine whether ACP Max is the right option – or if another biological or medical treatment would provide better results.
Is ACP Max the right treatment for you?
What is ACP Max and how does it differ from PRP?
Both PRP and ACP Max are based on the patient’s own blood and its natural healing potential.
The difference is that ACP Max is produced using a more advanced process, resulting in:
a higher concentration of growth factors
a more powerful and often longer-lasting effect
better outcomes in chronic or difficult-to-treat conditions
ACP Max can be considered an advanced evolution of PRP, developed for patients where standard PRP may not be sufficient.
How ACP Max Works – Step by Step
1. Blood sample
A small amount of blood is drawn from your arm.
2. Advanced processing
The blood is processed in a specialised centrifugation system that concentrates the most biologically active growth factors.
3. Ultrasound-guided injection
The prepared ACP Max solution is injected precisely into the affected area using ultrasound guidance for maximum accuracy and safety.
After the injection, ACP Max can:
reduce inflammation
relieve pain
stimulate repair of cartilage, tendons and muscle tissue
accelerate recovery
When Is ACP Max an Appropriate Treatment?
ACP Max for osteoarthritis and cartilage injuries
May reduce pain, improve mobility and, in some cases, slow disease progression.
ACP Max for chronic tendon injuries
Such as Achilles tendon disorders, tennis elbow and other long-standing tendon conditions.
ACP Max for sports injuries and overuse injuries
For active individuals and athletes, ACP Max can support faster recovery and facilitate an earlier return to activity.
Treatment decisions are always based on specialist assessment.

ACP Max or Surgery – When to Choose What?
Surgery is sometimes necessary – but not always the first option.
ACP Max can be an alternative for patients who wish to avoid or postpone surgery by enhancing the body’s natural healing processes.
For many patients, this means:
shorter recovery time
lower risk
a more natural treatment approach
After ACP Max Treatment
After treatment, most patients can return to daily activities, work and light exercise immediately.
Mild soreness during the first few days is normal and usually resolves quickly.
ACP Max is therefore both a powerful and convenient biological treatment for patients who want to maintain an active lifestyle.

Frequently Asked Questions about ACP Max (FAQ)
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Ut elit tellus, luctus nec ullamcorper mattis, pulvinar dapibus leo.
Yes. Before ACP Max treatment can be offered, all patients are assessed through a comprehensive clinical examination by an orthopaedic specialist. This ensures that the treatment is medically appropriate and that the most suitable treatment plan is selected.
Previous MRI or X-ray imaging can be a valuable complement, but it does not replace our own clinical assessment. In order to take full medical responsibility, we always perform an independent clinical examination.
No. ACP Max treatment is only scheduled after a specialist consultation and an individual treatment plan. You do not need to decide yourself whether ACP Max is the right treatment – this is determined during the consultation.
ACP Max is a more advanced and concentrated form of PRP. Through an enhanced processing method, a higher concentration of growth factors is achieved, which may result in a stronger and more long-lasting biological response compared to conventional PRP.
ACP Max is used, among other indications, for:
osteoarthritis of the knee, hip and other joints
cartilage and meniscal injuries
chronic tendon and ligament injuries
sports injuries and overuse-related conditions
The effect varies depending on the diagnosis and the extent of the injury.
The number of ACP Max treatments required depends on the diagnosis, the severity of the condition and how the body responds to treatment. In some cases, a single treatment is sufficient, while others may require multiple treatments over time. This is always determined individually during the specialist consultation.
.In some cases, ACP Max may delay or reduce the need for surgery; however, this is always determined on an individual basis following specialist assessment.
Yes. ACP Max is based on the patient’s own blood, which means there is a low risk of allergic reactions. Risks, expectations and any limitations are always discussed in detail during the consultation.
The cost is based on an individual treatment plan, including whether multiple treatments or additional biological therapies are required. Pricing is always determined after a specialist consultation
We offer short waiting times and no referral is required.
The treatment itself is usually experienced as mild to moderate discomfort. Local anaesthesia is used when necessary, and the injection is delivered with high precision—often under ultrasound guidance—to minimise discomfort.
After the treatment, you can usually return to work and normal daily activities the same day. Mild soreness or swelling may occur during the first few days but is normal and temporary
