Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a modern field of regenerative medicine, which involves injecting the patient’s own blood plasma enriched with platelets. Platelets are blood cells, small fragments responsible for blood clotting. They play a key role in repairing damaged tissues and wound healing due to their ability to promote cell regeneration. Platelet-rich plasma contains 3-5 times more growth factors and biologically active proteins than whole blood.
The PRP method is used in various branches of medicine – such as cosmetology, orthopedics, and neurology. At CALENDULA Clinic, it is prescribed for patients suffering from musculoskeletal disorders.
Platelets release growth factors (natural body proteins that stimulate growth, cell proliferation, and differentiation), thereby stimulating cell division and the growth of damaged cells. The therapeutic effect occurs when the concentration of platelets in the plasma increases and reaches 1 million/μl (the normal concentration is 150,000/μl to 350,000/μl).
The procedure is carried out as follows: A blood sample is taken from the patient’s vein and placed in a centrifuge. Using a special mode of blood treatment, platelet-rich autoplasma is separated from the sample. The obtained preparation is injected into the soft tissues surrounding the joint, the spine, or directly into the joint. The medication starts to work immediately.
The procedure is safe as the plasma contains the patient’s own blood components. This eliminates allergic reactions and other side effects. The number and frequency of such treatments are determined by the doctor.
