The Power of Platelets for Joint Pain Relief
Platelets in your blood stream are the body’s first step in the healing and regeneration process that follows injury.
​
Platelet Rich Plasma is a regenerative product made from your own blood. It is a highly concentrated dose of your own platelets created by centrifuging your own blood according to specific protocols.
These platelets are then injected into the place of injury, signaling to the body to accelerate healing in that tissue. Platelets have been shown to contain hundreds of growth factors and cytokines which initiate and accelerate the healing process.
Among them are:
Platelet Derived Growth Factor (PDGF)
Transforming Growth Factor Beta (TGF-Beta)
Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF)
Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1)
Insulin-like Growth Factor 2 (IGF-2)
Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF)
Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF)
Interleukin 8 (IL-8)
Keratinocyte Growth Factor
Connective Tissue Growth Factor
Not All PRP Is Created Equal
Prestige Regenerative Medicine is proud to offer our patients Magellan® technology.
The Magellan® is not your everyday centrifuge. Unlike lab centrifuges that have been repurposed, the Magellan® was specifically designed to fractionate blood at bed-side. This fully automated system processes the blood without need for manual manipulation, resulting in a superior product.
We invite you to view more information about our Magellan® PRP system.
Things to Know About PRP Treatments
Platelet Counts and PRP Effectiveness
Because PRP depends on the healing power of your platelets, those with lower platelet counts will not have as pronounced an effect. This generally isn’t an issue unless you have extremely low platelet counts (a condition known as Thrombocytopenia).
Personalized and Safe PRP Therapy
Because PRP is made from your own blood, we cannot (and will not!) give your PRP to someone else (or someone else’s to you). Thus, there is no risk of acquiring an infectious disease from PRP therapy.
Avoid NSAIDs for Optimal Healing
Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDS) such as ibuprofen, aspirin, Naprosyn, indomethacin, meloxicam, piroxicam, etc., can interfere with the healing process initiated by PRP. These drugs should be avoided for 1 week before and 2-3 weeks after your PRP therapy.
PRP is Not an Instant Pain-Killer
PRP is not a pain-killer. The healing effect that PRP induces takes time, much like your body takes time to heal. Depending on your age and general state of health, the healing process may take as long as 6-10 weeks for complete healing.
