Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy (PRP)
What is PRP Therapy?
PRP therapy is a non-invasive outpatient procedure that takes less than an hour to perform in our office. Blood is drawn from the patient then spun in a centrifuge to separate the red and white blood cells creating high concentration in platelets producing beneficial growth factors in the blood producing protein rich plasma from the blood. A topical anesthetic is applied to the patient and the extracted PRP is injected into the site of injury or concern with the guidance of ultrasound.
