The body has incredible healing capabilities when the right elements are introduced to injuries or damaged tissues. Within the blood, certain growth factors, known as Platelets, help stimulate healing and new tissue growth when introduced to the damaged tissue directly. The platelets in your blood are a rich source of natural healing factors that your body uses to boost tissue regeneration, heal wounds and repair cartilage.

PRP injections are a safe biological treatment, as the plasma is derived from your own blood. A small sample of blood is sent through a centrifuge (a cutting edge device that uses light sensors to separate your body’s platelets from the other components in your blood) that spins and filters out the platelets and plasma to create PRP. This substance is then reintroduced through an injection to areas that are damaged or require healing. PRP is concentrated with growth factors that can speed up and stimulate healing with no risk of a bad reaction or negative side effects, since it is extracted from the patient.

Any condition with damaged muscles, tendons, ligaments, cartilage or bone may benefit from PRP injections. While most physicians inject PRP at a set formulation for every patient, we use a unique protocol that personalizes the composition and concentration to the patient and condition being treated to achieve the best possible outcome. State-of-the-art injection equipment enables a higher precision of the injection itself, resulting in better results. Since PRP treatments are developed according to each patient’s specific needs, procedure costs vary. Thankfully, much of the regenerative medicine treatments are now covered by many insurance carriers. However, our team has some of the most accommodating plans on hand to assist with all patients’ needs if there happens to be any out-of-pocket expense
