PRP Therapy
PRP is prepared from a patient's own blood and contains a concentration of platelets and associated growth factors. It may be considered for selected musculoskeletal applications following clinical evaluation.
What Is PRP Therapy?
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy is a regenerative treatment that uses concentrated platelets from your own blood to stimulate healing. Platelets contain growth factors that promote tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and accelerate the body's natural healing process. The procedure begins with a simple blood draw, followed by processing in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets, which are then injected directly into the injured area.
