PRP Therapy

What Is PRP Therapy?

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a regenerative therapy where a small sample of your own blood is drawn, processed in a centrifuge to concentrate healing components, and re-injected into the target area.

PRP contains powerful growth factors and bioactive proteins that stimulate cell repair, tissue regeneration, and collagen production.

We don’t just treat infections. We treat people—using science, nature, and a whole-person philosophy.

Common Uses of PRP Therapy:

Root Causes: Why Tissues Fail to Heal on Their Own

Often, chronic pain, injury, or aesthetic concerns persist because the body’s healing response is compromised. PRP targets these deeper causes:

PRP works by reactivating your body’s natural repair pathways, helping you heal from the inside out.

Diagnostic Testing We Use

Before recommending PRP, our team uses comprehensive diagnostic evaluations to determine suitability and customize your plan.

Musculoskeletal imaging (X-ray, ultrasound, MRI as needed)

Hormone panels (thyroid, estrogen, testosterone, cortisol)

Nutritional status (vitamin D, B12, iron, zinc, magnesium)

Inflammation markers (CRP, homocysteine)

Platelet count and coagulation profiles

Hair and scalp health analysis (for PRP hair therapy)

Skin health assessment (for facial PRP)

Integrative PRP Treatments at Patients Medical

Orthopedic PRP (Joints, Tendons, Ligaments)

Used to treat chronic joint pain, arthritis, tennis elbow, rotator cuff injuries, and plantar fasciitis. We inject PRP directly into the damaged area, stimulating tissue regeneration and reducing pain.

PRP for Hair Restoration

Ideal for both men and women with thinning hair or early hair loss. Injections into the scalp revive dormant follicles, increase blood flow, and support stronger, fuller hair growth.

Facial Rejuvenation ("Vampire Facial")

Microneedling with PRP stimulates collagen, smooths fine lines, improves elasticity, and evens skin tone—for a natural, refreshed glow.

Sexual Wellness PRP

  • O-Shot® for women: Enhances sensitivity, arousal, and urinary control
  • P-Shot® for men: Improves erectile function and tissue regeneration

PRP + Integrative Support

We often combine PRP with other healing modalities:
  • IV nutrient therapy for collagen and joint support
  • Ozone therapy or prolotherapy for pain
  • Hormone balancing for optimal regeneration
  • Peptide therapy to stimulate stem cell activity
  • Anti-inflammatory diet and lifestyle coaching

Real Case Study: Mark’s Joint Pain Recovery

Mark, a 49-year-old marathon runner, had chronic knee pain due to early osteoarthritis. He was considering surgery when he came to Patients Medical.

We administered three PRP injections over three months, combined with an anti-inflammatory protocol and physical therapy. By month four, his pain had reduced by 80%, and he was running short distances again—no surgery needed.
