Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is an innovative new treatment for injuries and chronic conditions. There has been extensive publicity about platelet rich plasma therapy Los Angeles. Although blood is mainly composed of plasma (liquid), it also contains small solid components, such as platelets, white cells, and red cells. Platelets are known to clot blood, but they also contain growth factors, which are special proteins that help heal tissues.


To develop the PRP preparation, a nurse will draw the blood from you. The platelets are separated from the other blood components by a centrifuge, which spins the blood components in a special separating tube. The increased concentration of platelets is then ready to be injected into the body region of concern.

Experts believe that injecting a solution rich in growth factors will speed the healing process. This can be done through two mechanisms:

PRP can be injected into the damaged or injured area. A mixture of PRP and a local anesthetic is placed directly into the inflamed tissue. Afterwards, the pain at the injection site increases for the first couple of weeks, but after this, the patient will experience the beneficial effects.

PRP is often used to heal surgical repaired structures, such as tendons, ligaments, and muscles. This is done by preparing the PRP so it is actually stitched into the torn tissues.
