Platelet-Rich Plasma (prp) INJECTIONS

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections

• Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a form of regenerative medicine. This approach uses advanced technology to harness the body's own ability to heal itself.

• PRP injections involve first isolating a concentration of a platelets and plasma from a patient’s own blood.  The PRP concentrate is then carefully injected directly into the injured body areas. This releases growth factors that stimulate and increase the number of reparative cells the body produces in the area and boosts the natural repair of the injured tissues.

• Platelet-rich plasma has been found to significantly enhance the healing process of injured tendons, ligaments, muscles, cartilage, and joints. This technique can be used to treat injuries of the:
  neck, back, shoulder, jaw (TMJ), fingers, wrist, hips, knees, ankles, and toes.
