Platelet rich plasma (PRP) involves injecting a patient's own concentrated platelets and growth factors into injured areas to stimulate healing. PRP is used to treat tendon injuries, muscle strains, ligament sprains, joint injuries like arthritis or meniscus tears, and bone regeneration. It has also been used for wound healing after surgery, cardiac care, skin repair, cosmetic procedures, and dental applications. Case studies show PRP helped regenerate bone prior to dental implant placement in 89% of patients and reduced pain and accelerated recovery for a patient who received a PRP injection for a ruptured Achilles tendon.
