PRP Injections Q & A
What Happens During PRP Therapy?
During your PRP session, a small amount of blood is drawn, like a routine blood test. The blood sample is placed into a centrifuge to separate out the platelet-rich plasma from the red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelet poor plasma.
How Can PRP Help Me?
PRP boosts cellular repair and helps your body to recreate newer, healthier tissues. PRP therapy may help with:
- Arthritis
- Tendon and ligament injuries
- Internal derangement of the knee
- Muscle injuries
- Bone fractures
- Hair Loss
- Aged skin
When Will PRP Start Working?
Your powerful regenerative cells jump into action as the PRP enters your body. But it takes time for cells and tissues to heal. Some patients express feeling a bit more pain during the first week or two after their injection due to the body’s natural inflammatory response to the procedure.
After inflammation subsides and tissues start healing, you should start noticing an improvement within four to six weeks.
Dr. Fortin lets you know how long it will likely take to achieve the best results for your specific condition. If you don’t get the relief you need with your first injection, you can have the PRP process repeated several weeks later as sometimes required
Are PRP Injections Painful?
It’s normal to feel some pinching or burning during your PRP injection, although the final injection process only lasts a few seconds. Dr. Fortin utilizes local anesthesia prior to the injection.
Some areas are more sensitive than others, and everyone has a different pain tolerance level. If you know you’re sensitive to injections, let Dr. Fortin know before getting started.
