Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
What Is Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy?
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy is a regenerative treatment that uses a concentrated portion of your own blood to promote healing and tissue repair. Platelets contain natural growth factors that play an essential role in the body’s healing process by supporting cell reproduction, tissue regeneration, and recovery.
To create PRP, a small sample of your blood is collected and processed to concentrate the platelets before being injected into the targeted treatment area. Because the treatment uses your own blood components, PRP offers a natural approach to supporting the body’s healing mechanisms.
How PRP Therapy Works
Rather than simply masking symptoms, PRP works by delivering a concentrated dose of growth factors directly where healing is needed. These growth factors help stimulate the body’s normal repair processes, encouraging tissue regeneration and recovery over time.
Because healing is gradual, results often develop over several weeks or months as the body’s natural regenerative processes take place.
Conditions That May Benefit from PRP Injections
PRP Therapy may be used for:
- Osteoarthritis
- Hair restoration
- Microneedling facials
- Tendon, ligament, muscle, and joint injuries
- Post-surgical healing support
- Skin rejuvenation
What to Expect
Most patients are able to return to normal daily activities shortly after treatment, although temporary soreness at the injection site is common. Because PRP stimulates your body’s natural healing response, improvements typically occur gradually over time as damaged tissues repair and regenerate.
