PRP | Platelet Rich Plasma

​What is Platelet Rich Plasma - PRP

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) treatment is an innovative and autologous procedure, meaning it uses components sourced directly from your own body. The process begins with a small sample of your blood being drawn. This blood is then carefully processed using a specialized device called a centrifuge. The centrifuge spins the blood at high speeds, effectively separating it into its different components.

​

From this process, the platelet-rich plasma is isolated. This concentrated plasma is then further refined with another centrifugation step to separate a protein-rich liquid. This potent protein liquid is then precisely injected into the affected joint.

The primary goal of PRP treatment is to alleviate pain and slow down the progression of cartilage degradation, particularly in conditions like osteoarthritis and other forms of joint degeneration. By harnessing your body's natural healing factors concentrated in the protein liquid, PRP aims to support the joint's recovery, helping you to get back on your feet faster and improve your overall joint function.
