About This Service

How PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) Helps Asheville Patients

Platelet-rich plasma, or PRP, is a minimally invasive, non-surgical treatment that uses your own blood to support healing. A small sample is drawn and spun in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets and growth factors, which are then injected into the affected area such as a joint, tendon, or ligament. The concentrated platelets support the body’s natural healing response. PRP is used for a range of musculoskeletal conditions, including arthritis, tendon injuries, and joint pain in the knee, shoulder, hip, and other areas. Because PRP comes from your own body, there is no risk of rejection. The medical team evaluates your condition and builds a treatment plan suited to you.
