WHAT IS PRP?
Using your body’s own healing properties
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a regenerative treatment that uses your body’s own healing properties to help repair injured tissues. PRP is created by drawing a small sample of your blood and processing it to concentrate platelets — which are rich in growth factors.
These growth factors play a key role in tissue repair, inflammation reduction, and recovery from injury. The concentrated PRP is then precisely injected into the injured area to promote natural healing. Ultrasound guidance may be used to ensure accurate placement.

WHAT TO EXPECT
⏱ The PRP process
The PRP procedure is typically completed in under an hour. Mild discomfort or soreness at the injection site is common for a few days as the healing process begins. Patients are usually advised to limit strenuous activity briefly, followed by a guided return to exercise. Improvement often occurs gradually over several weeks as the tissue heals. Ultrasound guidance may be used to ensure accurate injection placement.
