PRP Therapy - Healing With Your Own Blood
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy uses growth factors from your own blood to accelerate healing in joints, tendons, and soft tissue - a natural, minimally invasive option used across orthopedics, dermatology, and more.
The Science Behind PRP
Platelets are tiny blood cells that play a central role in the body's natural healing process, carrying growth factors that drive tissue repair.
Growth factors
PRP is rich in growth factors such as PDGF, TGF-Îē, and VEGF - proteins that signal the body's repair processes to activate.
Cell proliferation
Once activated, these growth factors stimulate new cell growth in the treated area, supporting faster, more organised tissue repair.
Angiogenesis & regeneration
PRP also encourages the formation of new blood vessels, improving blood supply and nutrient delivery to healing tissue.
Applications of PRP Therapy
PRP's regenerative properties are used across several fields of medicine, not just orthopedics.
Orthopedics
Used to treat musculoskeletal conditions like osteoarthritis, tendon injuries, and ligament sprains - accelerating healing and improving function.
Dermatology
Used for skin rejuvenation, hair restoration, and wound healing - often combined with micro-needling to boost collagen and improve skin texture.
Dentistry
Applied in oral and maxillofacial procedures to promote bone regeneration, speed up healing, and support treatment of periodontal disease.
Aesthetics
Popular for facial rejuvenation procedures that stimulate collagen production and improve skin elasticity and quality.
The PRP Treatment Process
A straightforward, same-day procedure using nothing but your own blood.
Blood Collection
A small amount of blood - usually around 30-60 ml - is drawn from the patient's arm.
Centrifugation
The blood is spun at high speed in a centrifuge to separate the plasma, platelets, and other components.
Activation
The concentrated PRP is activated using calcium chloride or another agent to release its growth factors.
Administration
The activated PRP is injected directly into the target tissue or applied topically, depending on the treatment area.
Safety & Considerations
PRP therapy is generally considered safe, since it uses the patient's own blood - minimising the risk of rejection or adverse reaction.
As with any medical procedure, potential risks exist - including infection, pain at the injection site, and rare allergic reactions. A full consultation helps determine if PRP is right for you.
