Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy in Lebanon & Greater Cincinnati
Harnessing Your Body’s Natural Healing Power
At RestoreMD, we offer Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy, which uses your own blood to stimulate healing and reduce pain. Safe, minimally invasive, and well-studied, PRP has been applied successfully in orthopedics, sports medicine, dentistry, cosmetic procedures, and more for over 30 years.
What Are Platelets?
Platelets are small fragments of cells found in bone marrow. They are best known for their role in blood clotting, but they also:
-
Release growth factors, cytokines, and chemokines that promote repair
-
Trigger angiogenesis (new blood vessel formation)
-
Help regulate inflammation and immune response
Support tissue regeneration by stimulating fibroblasts, which build collagen and extracellular matrix
What Is PRP?
PRP is a concentrated solution of your own platelets and plasma. A small blood sample is drawn in-office and processed using the Arthrex Angel® centrifuge system. This technology:
- Delivers platelet concentrations up to 18x baseline
- Allows precise adjustment of white blood cell levels
- Ensures consistent, reproducible formulations tailored to your needs
The result is an autologous injection designed to stimulate the healing process where it’s needed most.
