MEDICAL PRP
Therapeutic Effect of PRP
PRP is thought to promote physiological wound healing and rapid soft and hard tissue regeneration by delivering growth factors at high concentrations to the treated site. Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy (PRP) is a non-surgical treatment for soft tissue injuries and joint pain. PRP stimulates the body’s natural healing forces. Often a patient using PRP will be able to avoid more invasive procedures such as surgery. Chronic soft tissue injuries can be treated with PRP as an alternative to steroids.
Prp growth factors
Upon activation, platelets release growth factors and other molecules stored in their α granules, which are part of the natural healing process. These growth factors are regeneration-associated signaling molecules, such as Platelet-Derived Growth Factor (PDGF), Transforming Growth Factor (VEGF), Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF), Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF), Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF) and others. These molecules regulate the healing cascade, including inflammation, cell proliferation, reepithelizlization, angiogenesis and tissue remodeling processes.
