What is Platelet rich plasma therapy?

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a procedure performed in our office that takes about 2 hours. There is no downtime, and patients can resume their normal activities immediately afterward. A small sample of the patient’s blood is taken, processed to separate red blood cells, white blood cells, plasma, and platelets, and then injected back into the injury site. This treatment accelerates healing and has no harmful side effects.

How does Platelet rich plasma therapy work?

PRP therapy uses the body’s platelets, which are responsible for healing. A small sample of blood is taken and processed to concentrate the platelets and white blood cells. This mixture is injected into the injury site, promoting faster healing. Since the blood used is your own, there’s no risk of rejection or infection, making the treatment safe and natural. It’s a non-surgical solution that taps into your body’s ability to repair itself.

What Conditions Are Treated with PRP Therapy?

PRP therapy is commonly used for injuries, but it can also treat conditions involving ligaments, tissue, and joints. Whether it’s a chronic injury or one needing faster recovery, PRP therapy can speed healing and reduce the need for surgery. Many individuals find relief when other treatments haven’t worked, making PRP a valuable option for recovery. It’s a trusted method for promoting healing non-invasively.
