Advanced Healing with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
If you're looking for a cutting-edge approach to injury recovery, PRP therapy might be just what you need. This innovative treatment is quickly gaining popularity, thanks in part to high-profile athletes like Tiger Woods who have benefited from its healing properties. At Advance Medical Solutions, we're proud to offer PRP therapy as a pain relief and healing option for our patients in Myrtle Beach, SC.
What is PRP Therapy
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy involves using a concentrated form of platelets, which are known for their growth factor proteins that help with injury healing. By using a higher concentration of platelets than normal, PRP therapy can boost healing rates and accelerate recovery times for a variety of injuries.
How is PRP Therapy Administered
First, blood is drawn from the patient, which is then separated in a centrifuge to extract the platelets from other blood cells. The extracted platelets are then injected into the patient at the site of the injury to promote healing and pain management.
What Conditions Can Benefit from PRP Therapy
PRP therapy can be particularly effective for tendon and ligament conditions, as well as for those with osteoarthritis. However, the effectiveness of PRP therapy can be influenced by various factors, including the patient's health, the area of treatment, the preparation of the PRP, and whether the injury is acute or chronic. That's why a thorough consultation is essential to determine if PRP therapy is right for you.
