Plasma is the liquid part of your blood that’s mostly made of water and protein. It lets red and white blood cells and platelets move through your bloodstream. We may use platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on injuries or damage to tendons, ligaments, muscles, joints, and skin.

To collect plasma, a nurse practitioner draws blood from your body and uses a machine to separate the platelet-rich plasma from the rest of the blood. Then we numb the area of your body being treated with PRP injections. Once you’re numb, the nurse injects the platelets into the area being treated. Where upon, they break down and release growth factors that help cells repair and renew.
