Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a minimally invasive regenerative medicine treatment that is helping patients recover from musculoskeletal disorders and chronic pain conditions. At Interventional Pain Specialists of Wisconsin, SC, serving Hudson, Rice Lake, and Altoona, Wisconsin, the team uses PRP therapy to repair damaged tissues, support healing, and improve overall function.
What is PRP Therapy?
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy harnesses the body’s natural healing capabilities to address injured or damaged tissues. PRP is derived from a patient’s own blood, which is processed to concentrate platelets and growth factors. These cells are essential for repair, as they trigger collagen production, tissue regeneration, and cellular healing.
By injecting this concentrated solution directly into areas of injury or degeneration, PRP therapy accelerates recovery, reduces inflammation, and promotes long-term tissue health.
Conditions Treated with PRP Therapy
At Interventional Pain Specialists of Wisconsin, SC, PRP therapy is used across multiple areas of care, including sports medicine, orthobiologics, and aesthetics. It is particularly effective for:
- Sports injuries – Supporting healing of muscle, ligament, and tendon injuries for faster recovery.
- Joint pain – Addressing arthritis, overuse injuries, and trauma to the knees, shoulders, hips, elbows, and ankles.
- Aesthetic services – Rejuvenating the skin through collagen stimulation, improving tone, and reducing fine lines.
- Hair loss – Stimulating dormant follicles and improving hair density in thinning areas.
What to Expect During PRP Therapy
Each PRP therapy treatment begins with a personalized consultation to define goals and review health history. The procedure involves drawing a small sample of the patient’s blood, spinning it in a centrifuge to isolate the platelets, and then carefully injecting the PRP into the target area. This process is quick, minimally invasive, and performed in the office with little to no downtime.
For musculoskeletal conditions, a series of injections may be recommended to optimize outcomes and support longer-lasting results. When used for aesthetics or hair restoration, PRP can also be paired with advanced techniques like microneedling, which further stimulates collagen production, improves skin tone and texture, and encourages healthy hair growth. Patients often report gradual improvements over several weeks, with benefits that continue to build as healing takes place.
