Cornwall Clinical Services will be one of the world’s first clinics offering ceramic hip resurfacing as an alternative to conventional total hip replacements.

H1® Anatomic Ceramic Hip Resurfacing

The H1® Anatomic Ceramic Hip Resurfacing represents the latest in non-cemented ceramic technology, offering a cutting-edge solution for patients seeking durability and precision.

Made from BIOLOX®delta ceramic, this implant offers unparalleled wear resistance and biocompatibility, making it an excellent choice for active individuals seeking a long-term solution to hip pain.

With a focus on preserving natural bone and optimising fit, the H1® system is designed to enhance mobility, reduce the risk of complications, and provide a seamless recovery experience.

Key Advantages of H1®
  • Superior Material: Constructed from BIOLOX®delta ceramic, known for its durability and safety.
  • Customised Fit:Utilises advanced imaging techniques for a precise anatomical fit. The hip socket in particular is highly innovative in its shape and conforms to the contours of a natural hip socket.
  • Minimised Risk: No risk of metal debris, removing adverse soft tissue reaction complications occasionally seen in metal-on-metal implants.
  • Built to Last: Early results show excellent activity level performance with a low risk of loosening or wear.

Is the H1® Right for You?

This implant is ideal for individuals with an active lifestyle who want to preserve bone and avoid the challenges of traditional hip replacements. The H1® system is designed for patients who prioritise longevity and performance.

Ideal Candidates
  • Patients comfortable with the knowledge that this is a very new technology and the risks are not clearly understood as yet.
  • Young and active individuals.
  • Patients with smaller femoral head sizes.
  • Females patients – the shape of the socket may suit those with hip dysplasia better than a stander implant.
  • Patients with metal sensitivity.
