Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)

What is PRP?

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a process when the patient’s own blood is used to separate platelets. We process the blood using an advanced, medical-grade super concentration unit. Our unit is capable of up to 9x (times) above the basic bedside centrifuge that most other physicians use. Our special PRP kits produce more cytokines, proteins, and growth factors than most other units on the market, for optimal healing support. Our kits are registered as a class II device with the FDA by the manufacturer.

Platelet Rich Plasma is then re-injected by our expert physician to the injured area. We use ultrasound, image guided by needle recognition capability, ensuring delivery to the precise location.

Why image guidance is important?

Most physicians treating orthopedic pain and injuries perform injections blindly without any image guidance. This freestyle technique results in 20%-40% missing the target location. The precise placement of orthobiologics, like stem cells or PRP, using image guidance, is a new specialty. Our physicians are trained to perform injections using ultrasound guided needle recognition. We are supported by MSK, expert ultrasound technicians as well. This process guarantees the delivery of cells into precise location of your injury.

While PRP is used for orthopedic conditions and it also is wildly used aesthetically.

There’s usually no downtime needed after PRP therapy. Valencia Medical Center will give you specific guidelines about returning to physical activity based on where you had the treatment and your current condition.
