Regenerative medicine helps your body heal naturally, and one way is through Platelet-Rich Plasma, or PRP therapy. PRP leverages your blood's healing power to treat pain and injuries.

Here’s how it works. We draw a small amount of blood, like a routine test, then spin it in a machine to separate healing platelets, growth factors, and proteins. Once concentrated, we inject this solution directly into the problematic area, such as a joint, tendon, or muscle.

People often choose PRP for tendon injuries, arthritis, or chronic pain that resist other treatments. PRP may reduce pain, decrease inflammation, and speed healing, although results vary.

Another option is Bone Marrow Aspirate and Concentrate, or BMAC. Similar to PRP, it’s derived from your bone marrow instead of blood, containing stem cells that aid in tissue repair. Doctors extract bone marrow from your hip, concentrate it, and inject it into the treatment area.

The difference? PRP mainly uses growth factors, while BMAC contains stem cells that transform into various tissues, suitable for severe injuries like advanced arthritis.

Microfragmented Fat, or M-Fat, is another therapy using your fat cells for healing. Fat tissue is rich in reparative cells that reduce inflammation and support repair. M-Fat is extracted, processed, and injected into the injured area.

Unlike PRP, which signals healing, M-Fat offers structural support, lasting longer. It’s used for joint pain and tendon injuries needing cushioning and regeneration.

After treatment, you might feel temporary soreness or swelling. Avoid anti-inflammatory meds like ibuprofen beforehand. Improvements can take weeks, and sometimes multiple treatments are needed.

If joint pain or tendon injuries affect you, consider regenerative medicine. Schedule a consultation to explore your options and develop a personalized plan to regain your activities.
