What is platelet-rich plasma therapy?

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy is a treatment for aiding the regeneration of ligament and tendon injuries, shortening rehabilitation time and often eliminating the need for surgery. It is part of a new, popular field of Medicine called "Orthobiologics" which employs the latest technologies along with the body’s natural ability to heal itself.

The procedure begins with a sample of the patients blood. This is then spun around in a Centrifuge which separates it into platelets, plasma and red and white blood cells. The platelets are then concentrated and mixed with some of the plasma, whereby this mixture is called "platelet rich plasma". The doctor will then inject this into the site of the injury, usually under ultrasound guidance.

After the injection, the patients immune system (the system that keeps your body healthy) reacts quickly. Special white blood cells called "macrophages" rush in and take away damaged cells. They help prep the site for healing, then stem cells and other cells begin to multiply and over time, repair and rebuild the injured tissues.

The aim is to relieve symptoms, enhance wound healing and eliminate the need for surgery.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Injections FAQ

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is the name given to blood plasma with a high concentration of platelets that contains doses of bioactive proteins that are critical in the repair and regeneration of tissues.

In order to extract these platelets, a small amount of blood is drawn and immediately undergoes centrifugation, which separates out red blood cells, which carry oxygen, and the platelet and plasma.

The platelets with the plasma have all of the healing agents. Once the separation is done, the platelet-rich plasma is extracted and can then be injected back into the patient’s injured area. It is their own platelet-rich plasma.
