PLATELET-RICH PLASMA (PRP) INJECTION
What is Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)?
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a concentrated form of platelets and growth factors derived from your own blood to promote healing and tissue repair.
Blood consists of plasma, red and white blood cells, and platelets, which aid in clotting and healing. Platelets contain growth factors that help repair tissues, reduce inflammation, and stimulate new cell growth.
In normal blood, platelets make up about 6% of the total volume, but in PRP, they are concentrated to 94%, making it 5 to 10 times richer in healing properties.
PRP therapy is widely used in orthopedics and sports medicine due to its natural, regenerative benefits and low risk, as it comes from the patient’s own blood.
STEM CELL THERAPY
Introduction
Stem cell therapy is a form of regenerative medicine that utilizes the body’s natural healing mechanism to treat various conditions. Stem cells are being used in regenerative medicine to renew and repair diseased or damaged tissues, and have shown promising results in treatments of various orthopedic, cardiovascular, neuromuscular and autoimmune conditions. Stem cells are present in all of us acting like a repair system for the body. However, with increased age sometimes the optimum amount of stem cells are not delivered to the injured area. The goal of Stem Cell therapy is to amplify the natural repair system of the patient’s body.
