Microneedling with PRP

collagen to correct a variety of skin concerns. This includes:

With PRP, the healing process for microneedling is greatly improved.
PRP in Orthopedic and Sports Medicine
PRP therapy is widely used in orthopedic and sports medicine to treat muscle, tendon, and ligament injuries. It’s popular among athletes looking to recover quickly from injuries.
PRP in Sports Medicine
- Tendon injuries: PRP helps repair damaged tendons, like those in tennis elbow or Achilles tendonitis.
- Muscle strains: It’s used to treat muscle tears and strains, promoting quicker healing.
- Knee osteoarthritis: PRP reduces pain, improves joint function, and may delay surgery.
By injecting PRP into injured areas, patients experience reduced pain and faster recovery.
How PRP Works (Biological Mechanism)
PRP works by utilizing the body’s own platelets to boost healing. Platelets, which are part of the blood, contain growth factors and proteins that help repair damaged tissues.
How PRP Is Prepared
When a patient undergoes PRP therapy, blood is drawn and placed in a centrifuge. The concentrated platelets are then injected into the injured area, releasing growth factors that stimulate the body’s healing process. This helps boost the production of new cells, collagen, and elastin, speeding up recovery.
