Discover the Game-Changing Discseel® Procedure at California Sports & Spine Institute

A Revolutionary Alternative to Spinal Fusion

If chronic back pain is keeping you from doing the things you love, you’re not alone. Traditional spinal surgeries like fusions and discectomies often lead to long recovery times and limited mobility. That’s why Dr. Maxim Moradian and his team at California Sports & Spine Institute offer the Discseel® Procedure—a minimally invasive, regenerative solution designed to seal damaged discs and promote natural healing.

What Is the Discseel® Procedure?

The Discseel® Procedure is an innovative, non-surgical treatment that uses fibrin, an FDA-approved natural biologic, to repair torn and degenerated spinal discs. By sealing these tears, the procedure stops the painful leakage of disc material and kick-starts the body’s healing process. When combined with platelet-rich plasma (PRP), the treatment further enhances tissue regeneration, providing long-term relief without the risks of invasive surgery.

Why Choose Discseel® Over Spinal Fusion?

For over a century, spinal fusions have been the go-to treatment for chronic back pain, but they come with a high failure rate and significant drawbacks. Many fusion patients experience limited mobility, ongoing pain, and even require additional surgeries down the line. Consider these statistics:

Over 40% of spinal fusion patients don’t experience lasting pain relief.
Nearly 1 in 3 spinal fusion patients need a second surgery within 10 years.
Many spinal fusion patients continue to rely on opioid pain medications post-surgery.
70% of Discseel® patients report significant pain reduction and improved mobility.

With the Discseel® Procedure, you get a minimally invasive, outpatient treatment that requires no hardware, no hospital stays, and no long-term reliance on pain medication.

The Step-by-Step Process

1. Patient Application

The first step is completing a patient application. Dr. Moradian reviews your medical history and imaging to determine if you’re a candidate. A patient advocate will then guide you through the next steps and schedule a consultation at our Arcadia office.

2. One-on-One Consultation

Dr. Moradian takes the time to understand your pain, previous treatments, and recovery goals. He explains the procedure in detail, ensuring you have all the information you need to make an informed decision.

3. Annulogram Imaging

Unlike an MRI, an annulogram provides detailed images of your spinal discs, revealing the exact location of any tears. This diagnostic step is crucial to ensuring the procedure targets the root cause of your pain.

4. The Discseel® Treatment

On the day of the procedure, Dr. Moradian injects fibrin into the damaged discs using image-guided technology. The fibrin seals the tears and promotes disc regeneration. The entire procedure takes about 45 minutes and is performed in an outpatient setting.

5. Recovery and Results

Most patients are up and walking within 24 hours. While mild discomfort is normal, the real magic happens over the next 12 months as your discs continue to heal. Many patients experience improved mobility and reduced pain within weeks of the procedure.
