what is

PLATELET-RICH PLASMA (PRP)

A small sample of your blood is drawn and spun in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma. These concentrated platelets are injected under ultrasound guidance into damaged joints or soft tissue—helping accelerate your body’s natural repair process. PRP is also used for aesthetic rejuvenation and hair restoration.

HOW IT WORKS

Blood Draw & Separation

PRP is created by drawing a small blood sample and spinning it in a centrifuge to separate the plasma from red and white blood cells. The platelet-rich layer contains a high concentration of growth factors essential for healing.

Preparation for Injection

After the PRP is processed, it’s drawn into a syringe and prepared for treatment. Your provider then injects it directly into the targeted area using ultrasound guidance for precise placement, enhancing both accuracy and effectiveness.

Natural Repair Begins

Once the PRP is injected, your body’s healing process is activated. The concentrated platelets release growth factors that promote tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and support long-term recovery. Over time, this natural regeneration helps improve mobility and decrease pain at the source.
