Combined Therapy
Surpassing the Limits of Single Treatments Through Combination
Shoulder problems are rarely singular. When calcific tendinitis accompanies a torn ligament, or when a tear has multiple aspects, combining two or more treatments multiplies the outcome.
Custom Combinations Designed by Dr. Lee
Calcific Aspiration + Plication Suture
For calcific tendinitis co-existing with a partial ligament tear. Calcium is completely removed (aspiration) while the torn ligament is simultaneously repaired and anchored (plication suture). Two problems resolved in one session.
Plication Suture + Collagen Patch (Regeneten)
Plication suture anchors the articular-side tear to bone from below, while the collagen patch (Regeneten) reinforces the thinned bursal surface from above. Comprehensive inside-and-out restoration.
Plication Suture + Bone Marrow Stem Cell
Suture provides structural fixation of the tear, while bone marrow stem cells optimize the regenerative environment simultaneously. Structural stabilization and biological regeneration in tandem.
Sequence and Candidacy Matter More Than the Treatment Itself
The most common mistake in non-surgical care is focusing only on “which treatment to receive.” Even with the same diagnosis of rotator cuff tear, the optimal treatment differs based on tear location, extent, and accompanying pathology.
Platinum Clinic uses precise ultrasound and MRI analysis to design the optimal treatment combination for each patient.The same protocol is never applied to every patient.
