Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)
PRP treatment is the next level of prolotherapy. A PRP injection is often used to treat soft tissue injuries and eroded joints and bone issues due to degenerative diseases. The 60-minute procedure involves injecting high concentrations of platelets from the patient’s own blood, which contains growth factors that promote cell regeneration. Dramatic results from PRP injections can be seen in as few as 30 days. Superstar NBA basketball player Kobe Bryant flew all the way to Germany to have PRP therapy for his injured knee.
At the DaSilva Institute, all of our treatments are performed according to FDA standards and have been reviewed by the Institutional Review Board. Above all, your well-being and safety are always foremost in our minds.
We utilize the Perfect PRP™ approach which guarantees optimal quality of PRP to enhance outcomes. Unlike some doctors, who outsource processing to foreign countries, all work is done in our Sarasota clinic right in our own laboratory.
