what Is pRP
PRP is a regenerative treatment that involves drawing a small amount of the patient’s blood, then processing it to separate the platelets and plasma, which are rich in growth factors and healing properties. Once the PRP is obtained, it is injected directly into the affected area of the musculoskeletal system, such as joints, tendons, or ligaments.
The concentrated platelets work to stimulate the body’s natural healing process, accelerating tissue repair, reducing inflammation, and promoting new tissue growth. In orthopaedics, PRP has shown promising results in treating conditions like osteoarthritis, tendonitis, and ligament injuries. Its non-surgical nature and low risk of adverse effects make it an attractive option for patients seeking effective and minimally invasive orthopaedic treatments.
