PRP Injection Techniques

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) injection techniques involve drawing a small amount of your blood, then spinning it in a centrifuge to separate the platelets, which contain growth factors essential for healing. The concentrated platelet-rich plasma is then injected into the affected area, such as a joint or tendon. This process encourages tissue repair and reduces inflammation. The procedure is typically guided by ultrasound to ensure accurate placement. PRP injections are used for conditions like tendon injuries, arthritis, and muscle strains, promoting natural healing through your body's own growth factors.
