Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Injections

PRP uses your own platelets to help reduce inflammation and improve pain related to knee arthritis or chronic irritation.

Why It Helps

Research shows PRP can decrease inflammation, slow cartilage breakdown, and support meaningful improvements in mobility.

How the Procedure Works

A small amount of blood is drawn, concentrated in a centrifuge, and injected into the knee using ultrasound guidance for accuracy.

Recovery Expectations

Most patients begin noticing improvement within a few weeks. Activity is gradually increased based on comfort.

The Goal

To improve pain and mobility with minimal downtime.
