Understanding Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy
Kayal Orthopaedic Center offers an innovative treatment to speed healing of bone, joint, and soft tissue injuries. The treatment, called platelet rich plasma (PRP) therapy, uses the patient's own blood to promote a quicker recovery. The PRP process is fascinating from a technical and therapeutic standpoint, but in reality is quite simple. The patient donates a small amount of blood, comparable to a typical blood draw for lab testing. The blood is placed in a centrifuge for five minutes, during which time the red blood cells, platelets and white blood cells separate. The plasma is injected directly into the injury site. Plasma goes through a process called "activation" outside the body, to form proteins and growth factors. These substances are like liquid gold to an orthopaedic patient, as they simultaneously stimulate repair and reduce inflammation to reduce your pain. Kayal Orthopaedic Center has performed hundreds of successful PRP procedures, and PRP may be right for you if you suffer from: Schedule Your Consultation Today!
