Platelet-rich plasma therapy is a form of regenerative medicine that can harness the self healing capabilities and amplify the natural growth factors your body uses to heal and revitalize damaged or aging tissues.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) consists of plasma, or the clear liquid portion of blood, and concentrated platelets, a type of blood component that plays a crucial role in healing. Platelets are most known for their clotting abilities, but most people don’t realize they also contain growth factors that trigger cellular healing and stimulate tissue regeneration in the damaged area. PRP is a biologic compound that contains more concentrated platelets than normal creating an intense healing environment.
we use a proprietary system for platelet harvesting that uses special collection equipment to not only concentrate the platelets but also remove the majority of the inflammatory white blood cells from the PRP making for a better, more purified PRP for injection.
After creating PRP from a patient’s blood sample, the biologic is injected into the target area, such as an injured or arthritic joint or a diseased tendon. In many cases, Dr. Barrett uses ultrasound to guide the injection. The idea is to increase the concentration of specific bioproteins or hormones, called growth factors, in a targeted area to accelerate the healing process on a cellular level.
