PRP / PRFM in Irving TX

PRP Therapy in Irving TX

Platelet-Rich Plasma, PRP, has been around since the early 2000's. It is thought to promote your body's natural healing abilities by utilizing your own blood platelets to release growth factors. The next generation of PRP is Platelet-Rich Fibrin Matirx, PRFM. Similar to PRP, PRFM uses a controlled separation process that removes almost all contaminants to create a pure platelet solution. PRFM takes this pure solution to the next level by forming a gel-like substance that protects and preserves platelets for injection. This optimal solution keeps inflammation to a minimal, the patients comfort in mind, and allows a slow sustained release of growth factors at the injection site. Growth factors are protein molecules found naturally in your body and released by the platelets in your blood. With hundreds of different types in existence, each help in varying ways including regulating cell growth, preventing cell death, and increasing circulation to name a few. Among the benefits of growth factors is their ability to act as chemical messengers, communicating with cells to stimulate growth and repair. During a brief appointment, our Irving TX chiropractor will perform basic flood draw and, with the use of a centrifuge, start the separation process. Once the final PRFM solution is prepared, Dr. Diviney will inject it into your injured area.
