Platelet-rich plasma therapy involves the use of injections containing a concentration of a patient's own platelets, which are essential for wound healing and regeneration. This innovative treatment harnesses the body's natural growth factors found in platelets, enhancing the healing process for a variety of musculoskeletal ailments, including arthritis and injuries to tendons or ligaments. Additionally, PRP has found applications within the cosmetic industry for rejuvenation purposes.

The process begins with the collection of the patient's blood, which is then processed through a centrifuge. This machine spins the blood at high speeds, effectively separating the platelets from other blood components such as white and red blood cells. This isolation procedure concentrates the platelets, which are laden with growth factors. The resulting PRP is then carefully injected into the affected area, directly targeting the site requiring healing or rejuvenation. This targeted approach aims to accelerate the body's natural repair processes and enhance tissue recovery.
