What Is PRP Therapy?

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a regenerative medical treatment that uses your own blood to stimulate healing. By concentrating platelets full of growth factors and injecting them into painful or injured areas, PRP helps reduce inflammation, repair tissue, and restore mobility.

At Florida Surgery & Weight Loss Center in Hollywood, FL, we provide PRP injections as a safe, non-surgical option for patients with joint pain, tendon injuries, ligament sprains, arthritis, and muscle tears.


How PRP Therapy Works

  1. Blood Draw – A small sample of your blood is collected.
  2. Centrifuge Process – Platelets are separated and concentrated from other blood cells.
  3. PRP Preparation – Growth factor-rich plasma is prepared for treatment.
  4. Injection – PRP is injected directly into the injured joint, tendon, or muscle.
  5. Healing Response – Platelets release natural growth factors that stimulate repair and regeneration.

💡 Your body’s own healing power becomes your pain relief.


Conditions Treated with PRP

  • Osteoarthritis – Knee, hip, shoulder & joint pain relief
  • Tendon Injuries – Tennis elbow, Achilles tendonitis, chronic tendon pain
  • Ligament Sprains & Tears – Sports or activity-related injuries
  • Muscle Strains – Faster recovery and better function after injury

Benefits of PRP Therapy

✔️ Pain relief and better mobility
✔️ Faster healing compared to traditional therapies
✔️ Reduced chronic inflammation
✔️ Non-surgical and drug-free option


Side Effects of PRP Therapy

Because PRP uses your own blood, side effects are minimal. Some patients may experience:

  • Mild soreness or swelling at injection site
  • Temporary bruising or redness
  • Joint stiffness for 24–48 hours
  • Rare risk of infection

Most effects resolve quickly, and normal activity can usually be resumed within days.


Dosing & Treatment Frequency

  • Standard Dose: 3–5 cc PRP per session
  • Treatment Plan: 1–3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart
  • Maintenance: Yearly boosters may be recommended

Insurance & Cost

PRP therapy is typically considered elective, so most insurance plans do not cover it.

💲 Initial Consultation: $100.
