What is PRP Therapy?
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy is a cutting-edge treatment that uses your body’s own healing properties.
A small sample of your blood is processed to concentrate platelets and growth factors. This powerful solution is then injected into the injured area to promote tissue repair and regeneration.
