Steven Meier: What Happens During PRP Therapy?
Steven Meier, Director at Meier Orthopedic Sports Medicine, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Many patients ask what actually happens during PRP therapy.
PRP, or platelet-rich plasma, involves processing a sample of the patient’s blood to concentrate platelets.
These platelets release growth factors that play a role in signaling tissue repair.
When introduced to an area of injury, these biological signals may help support healing in tendons, ligaments, and joints.
As with any treatment, proper evaluation is important to determine whether PRP is appropriate for the specific condition and patient.”
