About Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
Platelet-Rich Plasma therapy is a non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment option that has been in use since the early 2000s. This treatment option enhances the body’s ability to heal itself by using the patients’ blood platelets to produce growth factors and relieve the body of pain. Since the Platelet-Rich Plasma is prepared using your blood, there is almost no concern about infection and rejection.
Platelet-Rich Plasma constitutes of a concentrated solution of growth factors, signaling molecules, and some other proteins that have a crucial role to play in conducting tissue regeneration and enhancing the healing process. The therapeutic advantages of Platelet-Rich Plasma have been indicated in various clinical studies for knee osteoarthritis and back pain, offering excellent pain relief within weeks of starting treatment. This makes it an ideal treatment for sports injuries and treatments for athletes in general.

How It Works?
Extraction
A blood sample will be drawn, and it will undergo a centrifuge which filters the blood from its constituents.
Platelet Concentration
The blood plasma contains beneficial platelets, and it is collected, then it is refined to increase the concentration of both restorative components and these crucial platelets.
Activation
The prepared Platelet-Rich Plasma solution is now injected into the soft tissues or joint space where the activated growth factors and concentrated platelets activate the body’s healing process.
Relief
Some individuals might start experiencing pain relief after their initial injection. The number of treatments that an individual is to undergo rests on the patient and the doctor’s treatment plan. As with all injectable procedures, some individuals might feel temporary mild swelling, bruising, irritation, itching, tenderness, or discoloration at the site of the injection.
