Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a medical treatment that uses a patient's own blood to promote healing. A small amount of blood is drawn from the patient and processed in a centrifuge to separate the platelets, which are rich in growth factors. This concentrated solution is then injected into areas of injury or damage, such as joints or soft tissues, to stimulate repair and regeneration. PRP therapy is commonly used in sports medicine, orthopedics, and cosmetic procedures to enhance healing and reduce pain. It harnesses the body's natural healing properties to improve recovery and promote tissue repair.
