Platelet-rich plasma is created from a patient’s blood sample and injected into the target region, such as an injured knee or a tendon. The physician may utilize ultrasound to guide the injection in certain instances. The aim is to boost the concentration of certain bio proteins or hormones known as growth factors in a specific region to speed up the healing process.

The mechanism behind PRP injections is not well understood. According to research, the higher concentration of growth factors in platelet-rich plasma may stimulate or speed up the healing process, reducing pain and even promoting hair growth.

What is a PRP injection?

What is platelet-rich plasma?

Platelet-rich plasma comprises two components: plasma and platelets, a kind of blood cell that aids in healing throughout the body. Platelets are well-known for their ability to clot, but they also contain growth factors that may promote cell reproduction, tissue regeneration and healing in the treated region.

PRP is simply blood with more platelets than usual. Clinicians take a blood sample from the patient and put it in a centrifuge, which quickly spins the sample, separating the other blood components from the platelets and concentrating them inside the plasma.

Here’s what to expect from a typical PRP injection process:

A healthcare expert will take a blood sample from you. The quantity of sample required is determined by the location where the PRP will be administered, and this is a bit larger than a teaspoon.
A centrifuge is used to spin the blood. The blood components split as the machine revolves around at high speed, and it takes roughly 15-30 minutes to complete the separating procedure.
A technician prepares the plasma for injection into the afflicted region after it has been separated. Doctors often employ imaging, such as ultrasound, to detect particular injection sites, such as the tendon. The PRP will then be injected into the injured region by your doctor.

You do not really need to too much to prepare for PRP injections.
When you consult a PRP specialist make sure you understand what is your diagnosis and why PRP injection is the right treatment for you. Depending on how you get PRP, you may need to follow simple steps that will be explained to you by your doctor. PRP injections may be done in a variety of methods. A topical numbing lidocaine solution, for example, maybe given to your scalp prior to the injection for hair loss. If this is the case, you may need to come early for your appointment. To alleviate any pain, a topical anesthetic is sometimes added with the PRP. In some surgeries your surgeon may inject PRP during surgery into the surgical site such as knee or shoulder surgery, or he or she may recommend that you get PRP injection from a specialist after your surgery. Following your surgeon’s advice before surgery would be the best way to prepare for PRP injections in this case.

If you have PRP injected after an injury, your doctor may advise you to rest the injured region for a certain period of time that may be different based on the body parts, the type of the disease or injury and the type of the PRP treatments. These suggestions, however, are more focused on the disease and injury than on the PRP injections and the purpose is to give time for new tissue to form and heal. Following PRP injections and the resting phase, most patients are able to resume their normal activities.

Please note you may not notice an instant improvement after PRP injections since they stimulate healing or development. However, the region may begin to recover quicker or if it is for hair loss treatment new hair develop quicker than you would have anticipated if you hadn’t gotten PRP injections.
