Why is PRP Therapy Beneficial?

Platelet-rich plasma therapy is a form of regenerative medicine typically utilized to significantly speed up the recovery process of injuries, though it can also be used to aid in recovery from surgery and to reduce pain from certain conditions such as tendonitis.

What is Platelet-rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy?

PRP therapy revolves around plasma, the component of your blood that is important not only for the proteins which help your blood to clot, but also the proteins that support and encourage cell growth. By taking a sample of your blood, isolating just the powerful plasma to make a sort of “super PRP” solution and then injecting it back into your body into the specific pain point, we can allow the plasma-rich protein to get to work and induce an inflammatory response so you can heal more effectively and more efficiently. Because the injection is made up of a product created by your body, you don’t have to be concerned about rejections or negative reactions to treatment.

How Does this Portland PRP Procedure Work?

In order to isolate and concentrate the plasma, we’ll first need to take a small amount of your blood, then place it in a centrifuge machine to quickly separate the different components. This takes only a matter of minutes and will be done during your appointment time.

After the plasma has been separated, the platelet-rich plasma will be prepped for reentry back into your body, where it will be directed to the specific injury, surgery site or chronic condition pain source. We’ll use anesthetic so the area of focus is numb, then use imaging technology (like an ultrasound) to find the exact spot the PRP injection should be done for the optimal results.

Platelet-rich plasma therapy is not an instant solution, so you will still need to rest and take care of the affected area. Recovery may still be quite slow at first. However, you should notice less pain and a much better recovery process than was expected before the injections. Because of this you may also find a reduced need for reliance on pain medications. As an experienced care provider, Dr. Yusuf Mathai can work closely with you to recommend the right steps for you to take so you can get back to feeling fully functional again as soon as possible.
