Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy For Pain - PRP - The Latest Innovation In Regenerative Medicine

What Is Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy?

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy, also called “autologous conditioned plasma,” is the latest innovation in regenerative medicine. This therapy uses your blood components to speed up your natural healing process, stimulate regeneration, and reduce pain.

Platelet-rich plasma combines two components of your blood:

  • Plasma: the liquid portion of your blood rich in clotting factors, proteins, and healing factors.
  • Platelets: a blood cell well-known for its clotting and healing abilities.

PRP has a high concentration of platelets. These healing cells release proteins and growth factors essential to relieving pain and inflammation.1 PRP therapy has become a widely recognized natural pain relief and regenerative method in orthopedics, sports medicine, urology, dermatology, and cosmetics. It is a minimally invasive innovative way to naturally boost healing and cellular regeneration.

If you want to skip the prescription painkillers and avoid surgery, then PRP might be your best alternative. Dr. Sardar is now offering PRP in his Brooklyn pain clinic. You can try out PRP treatment regardless of your insurance coverage!

How Does Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy Work?

Dr. Sardar injects the platelet-rich plasma directly into the source of your pain to stimulate cell regeneration and tissue repair. The high concentration of platelets enhances your body’s healing and repair mechanism for faster recovery.

The injection of platelet-rich plasma into the painful area elicits the following physiologic reactions:

  • Supply fibronectin: Fibronectin is a chemical necessary for wound healing, but it has an insufficient supply in cases of chronic pain. The reintroduction of the platelet-rich plasmas replenishes your fibronectin supply and speeds up wound healing and tissue repair.
  • Release growth factors: PRP releases growth factors that trigger cell regeneration and repair, providing natural healing and easing your pain.1
  • Anti-inflammatory effects: Platelet-rich plasma injections encourage your body to produce endothelial cells and fibroblasts.3 These cells are essential for reducing inflammation, controlling coagulation, and regulating blood flow.

Tissue regeneration: PRP energizes your cells and stimulates regeneration and revitalization for faster tissue healing.4 It also prompts cell growth and multiplication in the cells responsible for bone regeneration and remodeling.

What Are The Benefits Of Platelet-Rich Plasma Injections?

Platelet-rich plasma therapy is the latest non-invasive treatment that promotes your body’s healing process. PRP is all-natural – using your own cells to elicit regenerative effects.

Now, you can avoid adverse side effects from steroid injections, surgery, and prescription medications.

The benefits of PRP therapy include:

  • Rapid tissue growth
  • Boosts bone regeneration and remodeling
  • Enhanced wound healing
  • Decrease in inflammation
  • Healing of injured ligaments and tendons
  • No scarring, no skin incision 
  • No known side effects 
  • Extremely safe and effective against chronic pain and acute injuries
  • You can combine it with other pain-relief treatments to maximize its efficacy

How Is Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy Done?

Dr. Henry Sardar will extract a sample of your blood and run it through a centrifuge to separate its components. 

From the sample, he takes the portion containing your white blood cells and platelets to use for your PRP injection. He injects the activated platelets directly into the injured tissue.  The entire procedure is not painful at all and does not require any anesthesia. After a short monitoring period, you’re free to resume your usual activities.

Recovery After Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy

Platelet-rich plasma therapy has no known adverse effects or risks. 

However, we recommend allowing some time for your body to heal. Try to avoid strenuous activities that can strain the treated area. 

Unlike surgical procedures and other invasive pain treatments, platelet-rich plasma therapy doesn’t require any recovery period. You can continue your daily routine almost immediately after your session. You may even feel more energized than before.
