What Does Knee Replacement Involve?

A knee replacement is a surgical procedure where damaged or worn parts of your knee joint are replaced with a high-grade implant. This restores movement, reduces pain, and improves stability.

Depending on your needs, we offer:

  • Total knee replacement (entire joint)
  • Partial knee replacement (only the affected area)
  • Knee cartilage replacement (if damage is localised and joint structure is intact)

We’ll assess your condition through imaging and consultation to create a personalised plan that suits your lifestyle and goals.

 

What’s the Cost of Knee Replacement in Manchester?

The cost of knee replacement in Manchester can vary widely depending on provider, complexity, and aftercare.

At Electiva, our private knee replacement cost in Manchester starts from £9,995. This includes:

  • Surgical consultation
  • Scans and imaging
  • Anaesthesia and hospital stay
  • The surgery itself
  • All post-op follow-ups and physiotherapy guidance

No surprises. No hidden extras. Just quality care from start to finish.

 

Is Knee Surgery Right for You?

You may be ready for surgery if:

  • Knee pain is interfering with sleep or day-to-day activities
  • Movement feels stiff or unstable
  • You’ve tried physiotherapy, injections, or medications without lasting relief
  • Imaging shows joint damage or cartilage deterioration

We often see patients who’ve struggled for years before deciding to take action. If that sounds like you, we can help you explore your options – including knee cartilage replacement near Manchester or less invasive approaches.

 

What Happens After the Surgery?

Recovery starts fast. Most patients are walking with assistance the same day or next morning.

Here’s a rough recovery timeline:

  • 0–2 days: Hospital stay with guided movement and pain control
  • Weeks 1–6: At-home rehab and mobility improvements
  • Weeks 6–12: Return to normal activities with increasing strength
  • 12+ weeks: Full healing, reduced swelling, and better flexibility

You’ll have regular check-ins with your consultant and access to 24/7 clinical support throughout.

Am I suitable for knee replacement surgery in Manchester?

You may be a good candidate if you have ongoing pain, limited mobility, and reduced quality of life due to arthritis or injury. If conservative treatments haven’t helped, we can assess your suitability for knee replacement surgery in Manchester.

You’ll be under spinal or general anaesthesia during the procedure, so you won’t feel anything. After surgery, any discomfort is managed with effective pain relief and monitored by our clinical team.
