Plasma Rich Platelet Therapy
About our PRP Services
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a regenerative medical treatment that uses a patient’s own blood to promote healing and tissue repair. The procedure involves drawing a small amount of blood, processing it to concentrate the platelets, and then injecting the PRP into the targeted area. Since platelets contain growth factors and proteins essential for cell regeneration, PRP therapy is widely used in sports medicine, orthopaedics, dermatology, and aesthetics to accelerate recovery from injuries, reduce inflammation, and improve skin and hair health.
As a minimally invasive procedure, PRP therapy offers a natural approach to healing with minimal risks and downtime.
