What is Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)?

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is plasma with a higher concentration of platelets than what is typically found in blood. Platelets are small, colorless cell fragments in the blood that play a crucial role in the healing process. When an injury occurs, platelets become activated and gather at the injury site to release beneficial proteins called growth factors, initiating the healing process. By concentrating these platelets, PRP therapy enhances the body’s natural ability to repair and regenerate tissue.

How Does PRP Therapy Work?

Laboratory studies have shown that the increased concentration of growth factors in PRP can potentially speed up the healing process. PRP consists of your own platelets and growth factors concentrated tenfold. Platelets not only stop bleeding but also contain important growth factors that attract other healing cells to stimulate, enhance, and speed up the natural healing process. By concentrating these growth factors and injecting them precisely where needed, PRP therapy can boost your natural healing process.

How is PRP Developed?

To develop a PRP preparation, a small sample of your blood is drawn. The blood is then placed in a centrifuge, which separates the platelets from other blood cells. This process increases the concentration of platelets and growth factors by 5 to 10 times. The concentrated platelets are then injected into the targeted area to promote healing.

Benefits of PRP Therapy

  • Enhanced Joint Function: PRP can improve joint function and reduce pain.
  • Tissue Healing: Promotes actual tissue healing, offering long-lasting relief.
  • Natural and Safe: Uses your body’s own platelets, reducing the risk of allergic reactions or complications.
  • Reduces Pain: Effective in treating various pain conditions, providing long-term relief.
  • No Allergy or Rejection Risks: Since PRP is derived from your own blood, there is minimal risk of allergic reactions or rejection.

Conditions Treated with PRP Therapy

PRP therapy has been used by many famous athletes for conditions such as sprained knees and chronic tendon injuries. It offers several benefits, including enhanced joint function, reduced pain, actual tissue healing, long-lasting relief, and the absence of allergy or rejection risks.

  • Hip Arthritis
  • Knee Arthritis
  • Shoulder Arthritis
  • Hamstring Tendonitis
  • Tennis Elbow
  • Plantar Fasciitis
  • Rotator Cuff Tendonitis
  • Sacroiliac Joint Pain
  • Hair Loss
  • And Many More!

These conditions have traditionally been treated with medications, physical therapy, or even surgery. PRP therapy provides a natural alternative that can strengthen tissues over time, unlike multiple steroid injections which can weaken them.

Post-Treatment Care

After PRP injections, there may be increased pain at the injection site for a week or so. However, the incidence of other problems, such as infection, tissue damage, and nerve injuries, appears to be no different from that associated with cortisone injections. PRP injections are usually given every two to six weeks, depending on the condition being treated. Most patients need up to three injections, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, to achieve the best results. Sometimes a fourth injection is required, with a maintenance injection every 6-12 months to continue improvement.

Duration and Longevity of PRP Treatment

PRP injections can take four to six weeks to show noticeable results, with some conditions taking up to six months to show full effects. Joint injections typically show results after several weeks, while scalp injections can take up to six months. PRP injections are a natural, minimally invasive, and low-pain method for accelerating healing in soft-tissue injuries and conditions. The effects of PRP injections are not permanent and can last anywhere from six months to two years, depending on the treatment. Regular treatments can extend the effects beyond nine months.

Risks of PRP Therapy

PRP therapy uses your body’s own plasma and natural properties to treat your injury, making it a low-risk and minimally invasive treatment. Side effects are rare and may include pain, discomfort, stiffness, and bruising. There is a low risk of tendon rupture, but this risk is lower compared to corticosteroid injections.

Costs of PRP Therapy

While PRP treatments have been available for years, insurance companies still consider them experimental, leading to coverage denials. The FDA has not approved PRP for most uses, but it has cleared equipment and injections for providers to use off-label. Therefore, providers can prescribe and administer PRP therapy if they believe it’s in the patient’s best interest. Since PRP may not be covered by insurance, we advise you to confirm coverage for this treatment before committing to therapy. Few insurance plans, including workers’ compensation, provide even partial reimbursement for PRP therapy.
