What is PRP therapy?
Platelet Rich Plasma, also known as autologous conditioned plasma is a form of platelet-rich
plasma protein is taken from the blood. Platelets are the blood cells in our body that make the
blood clot and are responsible for the healing role. They have usually been used for growth or
healing purposes in different treatments. The blood is drawn from your body and the machine is
used to separate the platelet-rich plasma from the blood. The doctor numbs your body and PRP
injections are used to inject plasma into the area of the body which needs healing.
