Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)

Define

PRP comes from your own blood. We obtain a blood sample from you and centrifuge it to separate the plasma, red cells and what is known as the “buffy coat.” We aspirate, remove the plasma layer near the buffy coat where the platelet concentration is high. For PRP injections, the concentrated platelets are re-injected into your body at the site of injury to start the healing process.

Benefits

  • promotes healing

  • improves functional status of injury area

  • increases growth factors and signaling proteins
