The Healing Power of Your Body

    Home The Healing Power of Your Body

    Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy: One of the most exciting advancements in Orthobiologics. Rapid relief through non-surgical treatment of joint, disc, tissue and bone pain.

    What is Platelet Rich Plasma therapy?

    Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a minimally invasive, non-surgical treatment that relieves pain by promoting long-lasting healing of musculoskeletal conditions.

    The body’s natural reaction to an injury is to send platelets from the blood to the damaged tissues to initiate healing. Platelets store a vast array of growth factors which are released at the site of injury through cell signaling. PRP is injected directly into the injured tissue, stimulating the same healing response in a much more potent form. PRP treatments use your own concentrated platelets and growth factors to stimulate and enhance the body’s healing response to treat acute injuries, inflammation or chronic degenerative diseases.

    What is PRP?

    PRP consists of a concentrated solution of platelets, growth factors, signaling molecules and other proteins that play vital roles in orchestrating tissue healing and joint stabilization. To yield therapeutic benefits, a dose of over 1 billion platelets per mL of PRP is targeted, containing the key growth factors and other molecules necessary to accelerate and augment the healing and stabilization process. [1]

    The PRP used in our treatment contains a significant, industry-leading 7 to 10 fold increase in platelet concentration compared to whole blood. [2] Most patients experience pain relief and therapeutic benefits after their first injection. In some cases of chronic pain management, additional PRP injections may be needed to realize/achieve full therapeutic benefits. For over a decade, high level athletes have used PRP therapy to avoid surgery and benefit from a shortened recovery time. By enhancing the body’s natural healing capacity, PRP therapy has been shown to lead to a more rapid, efficient, and thorough restoration of tissues to a healthy state. Since PRP is prepared from your own blood, there is little to no concern of rejection or infection.

    Is all PRP the Same?

    The characteristics of PRP composition is critical to final outcomes. Commercially available PRP processing kits vary in white blood cell count, red blood cell count, platelet yield and integrity, and the total volume of product produced. Variances in these categories will result in altered healing and efficacy. [7] [8]

    We offer the highest standards and quality in PRP therapy available today. As a group we use only the most advanced scientifically proven PRP system available, which includes:

    1. A therapeutic dose of over 1 billion platelets per mL of PRP. [9]
    2. A high dose of growth factors released at the site of injury. [9]
    3. A high platelet yield which recovers over 80% of platelets present in your blood [2].
    4. The purest form of PRP available, removing red blood cells and neutrophils prior to the procedure, thereby reducing inflammation and a host of negative effects. [2]

    Who should consider PRP?

    PRP is ideal for patients who have not benefited from more conservative treatments such as physical therapy and bracing. PRP may also be an option for those interested in biological treatment options to reduce inflammation using the body’s inherent pathways for healing. It is a great alternative for those who are candidates for surgical intervention, but would like to avoid or delay invasive surgery so as to allow for a more active rehab process.

    Are there any pre-procedural guidelines?

    Pre-procedural restrictions are necessary to ensure good quality PRP with high platelet integrity. Please let your provider know what medications and supplements you are currently taking so that they may advise you appropriately.

    Please adhere to the following guidelines:

    1. Stop NSAIDs 1week pre-procedure (2 weeks is most optimal
    2. Ideally, stop any blood thinners 3-5 days pre-procedure. Consult with your prescribing provider to ensure that this can be done safely.
    3. Stop any anti-inflammatory supplements 1 week prior to procedure (eg. Vitamin E, turmeric, curcumin, fish oil, ginseng, gingko, ginger, garlic extract, etc.) 
    4. Arrive early to your appointment and make sure that you are well-hydrated.

    What you can expect during the procedure

    PRP therapy is usually done in-office and takes 30 minutes to an hour, from pre-procedural prep to bandaging injection sites. After identifying the tailored PRP solution needed to treat your pain, blood is drawn from your arm and run through a centrifuge which separates the blood into its components. Plasma, which contains the beneficial platelets, is collected and further refined, concentrating these vital platelets and healing molecules. Once this is done, the site of treatment will be prepared for injection. A local anesthetic may be injected into the treatment area, helping to minimize any discomfort. The final, personalized PRP solution is then injected into the affected area (joint space, disc or soft tissue such as tendons or ligaments). Ultrasound or fluoroscopic guidance is frequently used to ensure precise delivery of PRP. Our clinical team will walk you through each step of your procedure, providing you with the information and guidance you need to maximize recovery.

    What are my post-procedural expectations?

    Most patients report an increase in pain and some swelling immediately following the injection, lasting up to several days. This is normal and results from the body’s natural inflammatory response flooding the region with healing factors. Please notify your physician if this increased pain does not resolve itself within three days.

    Immediately after the procedure, it is recommended that you not soak your body in water for 24 hours (ie. baths, hot tubs) to mitigate risk of infection at the injection site. Showering is fine. It is also recommended that you abstain from anything that will inhibit the natural inflammatory response triggered by the PRP treatment (ie. nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAIDs). For pain relief, extra strength Tylenol is recommended. If stronger medication is requested, a short course of opioids (or non-NSAID pain relievers) may be prescribed. Ice is not recommended as it causes vasoconstriction and reduces inflammation. Heat is acceptable for pain relief. 

    Many patients resume their activities of daily living immediately after the procedure. Your provider will discuss specific limitations and rehabilitation protocols with you before leaving the office.

    At about 2 weeks post-procedure, most patients will experience some relief from pre-injection pain levels. The greatest benefit is typically reported at 4-6 weeks post-injection and can occur up to 6-9 months after. To maximize recovery, we strongly suggest that you adhere to the guidelines recommended by your treating physician. This may include short-term non-weightbearing protocols, reduced activity, formal physical therapy, and at-home exercises.

    How many injections do I need?

    Your treatment plan is created based upon the severity and duration of the injury or degeneration. Usually, one treatment with PRP is sufficient for returning to desired activities after 6-8 weeks of rehabilitation and at-home exercises. However, more severe conditions may need ‘booster’ shots after four weeks [1]. Your provider will evaluate your situation and advise if you need repeat treatment after your first follow-up appointment.

    There are complementary treatments to PRP, such as Bone Marrow Concentrate (BMC), Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT), and hyaluronic acid that may help maximize your results.

    Are the results permanent?

    Healing that occurs from PRP therapy is usually long-term. However, if the etiology of the injury is not addressed (such as flat feet leading to knee or hip pain), then repeated wear and tear will continue to degrade the joints and/or tendons. For this reason, a comprehensive approach which incorporates PRP therapy with structured physical therapy, and other adjunctive therapies may be recommended.

    It is important to note that the results of PRP vary and depend on the quality of one’s own platelets. Every patient’s level of health and chemistry are different, hence their platelets are somewhat different as well. Our team will develop a treatment and care plan personalized to your needs, ensuring the best possible outcome.

    Will my body reject the PRP? 

    No, PRP comes from your own body and is used immediately. Therefore, there is no risk of rejection and very low risk of infection (the same risk as any other injection). In addition, the aspiration is done under sterile conditions to mitigate any contamination with pathogens and the injection is done using aseptic technique. 

    Can PRP therapy delay a knee replacement?

    PRP can be highly effective in substantially reducing pain in patients with even advanced arthritis. [10] Often, patients are able to delay total knee replacement for years with PRP therapy.  

    Can PRP help optimize my results from a surgical procedure?

    This depends on what type of procedure is done. Microfracture surgery is a common surgical procedure done to restore the cartilage surface in your knee. If your doctor performs this procedure on you, there are numerous scientific articles that show a far more robust patient outcome when augmented with PRP. [11] 

    Is there research support for PRP?

    Numerous clinical studies have confirmed that PRP provides significant healing and long-lasting pain reduction for a variety of injuries. [3]

    • Several recent studies and reviews have demonstrated PRP to be more effective than corticosteroids or hyaluronic acid, the current, standard treatments for knee osteoarthritis. [4] [5]
    • A study in the American Journal of Sports Medicine revealed that patients with elbow tendinosis receiving PRP reported a 46% reduction in pain by week four, and an 81% reduction in pain after six months. At the study’s conclusion, 93% of patients were completely satisfied with their PRP treatment and had avoided s [1]
    • MRI imaging across numerous studies has also confirmed significant improvements in pain relief. Studies show that over 70% of patients receiving PRP for knee osteoarthritis have delayed further progression of the disease and prevented further knee degeneration. [6] PRP may, in some cases, eliminate the need for more aggressive treatments such as long-term medication or surgery.

    Is all PRP the same?

    The characteristics of PRP composition is critical to final outcomes. Commercially available PRP processing kits vary in white blood cell count, red blood cell count, platelet yield and integrity, and the total volume of product produced. Variances in these categories will result in altered healing and efficacy. [7] [8]

    We offer the highest standards and quality in PRP therapy available today. As a group we use only the most advanced scientifically proven PRP system available, which includes:

    1. A therapeutic dose of over 1 billion platelets per mL of PRP. [9]
    2. A high dose of growth factors released at the site of injury. [9]
    3. A high platelet yield which recovers over 80% of platelets present in your blood [2].
    4. The purest form of PRP available, removing red blood cells and neutrophils prior to the procedure, thereby reducing inflammation and a host of negative effects. [2]

    How much does a PRP treatment cost?

    The cost of a PRP treatment varies based on the procedure performed. Our office staff can assist you with payment options and any other questions you may have. 

    Does my insurance cover PRP therapy? 

    Although PRP in musculoskeletal applications is well-supported by clinical studies, the broader use of PRP therapy in treating pain is still considered relatively new at this time, PRP is not typically covered by commercial insurance companies and Medicare, and is provided as a cash-pay procedure.
