PRP Treatment
Platelet Rich Plasma injections (PRP) are an advanced, non-surgical treatment option for various orthopaedic injuries and conditions. PRP injections are made from a small sample of the patient’s blood, which is then centrifuged to concentrate the platelets. The platelets are injected into the injured area, releasing growth factors promoting healing.
PRP treatment helps various orthopaedic injuries and conditions, including tendinitis, tendinosis, ligament sprains, muscle strains, and arthritis. PRP injections have also been used to speed up the healing process following surgery.

Benefits of PRP Injections
Reduced pain and inflammation
Plasma-Rich Platelet treatment effectively reduces joint pain and inflammation associated with various orthopedic injuries and conditions. The growth factors released by the platelets help to reduce inflammation and promote healing of the injured tissue. These injections can restore mobility and function to the injured area and help patients avoid the need for surgery.
Long-lasting results
They provide long-lasting results by stimulating the growth of new tissue. The new tissue that forms is stronger and more resilient, which helps to reduce the risk of re-injury. You won’t spend money and waste time on treatments that only provide temporary relief.
Accelerated healing
It can speed up the healing process by increasing blood flow and delivery of nutrients to the injured area. The treatment supports the healing capacity of your body and can help you return to your regular activities more quickly.
Non-surgical treatment option
PRP injections are a non-surgical treatment option for various orthopaedic injuries and sports medicine modalities. Regenerative medicine is the building block of healing and recovery with return to sports activity. The non-invasive treatment with PRP can be performed in an outpatient setting and does not require a lengthy recovery, with same day return to activity. This makes them an attractive alternative to surgeries for many of our patients. There is little to no risk of complications associated with the treatment.
Cost-effective
PRP injections are a cost-effective treatment option for various orthopedic injuries and dermatological or cosmetic conditions. The treatment is vastly less expensive than surgery and does not require a lengthy hospital stay or rehabilitation. You will save money on medical costs and miss fewer days of work.
Safe and effective
PRP injections are a safe and effective treatment option for various orthopedic injuries and conditions. The treatment is minimally invasive and uses the patient’s blood, so there is no risk of rejection or allergic reaction.
Can treat delicate areas
PRP treatment helps delicate areas, such as the tendons and ligaments which often have a difficult time healing due to anatomically poor vascular flow. This can be an adjunct to surgical and can even replace surgical treatment in many cases. The treatment allows the doctor to target the injection directly to the injured area such as the achilles tendon, knee joint, or shoulder, and even dermatological application on the face, scalp, and hair.
Standard Treatment
They are becoming standard treatments for various orthopedic injuries and conditions. The injections are made from the patient’s own blood and help to reduce pain and inflammation while promoting healing. They are safe, effective, and provide long-lasting results.
