Cornwall Clinical Services is one of the world’s first clinics offering ceramic hip resurfacing as an alternative to conventional total hip replacements. We’ve already booked our first two patients in for surgery.

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.
