Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
Are you experiencing persistent foot or ankle pain that limits your daily activities?
Discover how Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injection could be the solution you’re looking for. Imagine a therapeutic approach where your own body plays an active role in the healing process. This treatment harnesses the natural healing properties of blood to stimulate tissue regeneration and healing. PRP specifically targets the source of pain, promoting the regeneration of damaged tissues for faster and more effective recovery.
PRP is a concentrate of platelets derived from the patient’s own blood. Platelets contain growth factors and other proteins crucial for tissue healing.
A small amount of blood is drawn from the patient. The blood is centrifuged to separate the platelets from plasma and other blood components. The platelet-rich plasma is then collected and prepared for injection.
