A revolutionary new treatment has been discovered and is currently being accepted as a great advancement in the regenerative medicine world. The platelet rich plasma treatment or PRP therapy in Bangkok. This new non-invasive type of regeneration therapy that is being used to manage many degenerative conditions along with treatments for muscle pains, shoulder injuries, torn tendons, worn cartilage repair, damaged ligaments, arthritis in the knees and even cosmetic applications such as stem cell breast reconstruction and stem cell facelifts.

Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy

Currently the most widely used field for PRP therapy involves professional athletes from around the  world that require optimal physical conditions to earn a living. Elderly patients suffering from arthritis or osteoarthritis also benefit greatly from the non-surgical mesenchymal stem cells + PRP technique.

PRP Plasma Injections

When a body reacts to soft tissue injury, it immediately delivers platelet cells. Platelets have a lot of healing factors and it activates the repair mechanism of our bodies stem cells. The Platelet rich plasma therapy is done by having a small sample of the patient’s blood, this is centrifuged until it has the concentrated mixture of growth factors and plasma cells. The next step is injecting the substance into or around the injured tissue of the patient’s body. This process is believed to strengthen the body’s instinct to naturally heal on it’s own. Since the patient’s own bio-material/cells are used,(Autologous) it is considered safe and there’s virtually no chance for any negative reaction.

PRP Applications and Benefits

PRP treatments are not new. PRP has been used in modern medicine for over twenty years but only recently gained in popularity after a few well known athletes came forward and admitted to using PRP therapy in their injury rehabilitation. PRP is also often used by plastic surgeons  to heal bone grafting in the jaw, neck and mouth. It was only used recently in the sports world by specialists. In sports, it is used to treat chronic tendon conditions. Some popular athletes like Tiger Woods,Peyton Manning and Kobe Bryant have all tried this method as an alternative to traditional sports medicine. Woods and Bryant used it to treat knee injuries, and Manning for shoulder and neck injury rehabilitation.

The actual PRP procedures are only available in Bangkok and are generally pretty short. Most PRP sessions only take about an hour or two for the whole process to finish, this includes the recovery time. For more serious injuries, combination PRP and stem cell treatments are needed. MSC CD34+ Autologous Stem Cells are typically extracted and expanded in closed system stem cell lab in Bangkok.The expansion of stem cells is currently not allowed in countries such as USA,Australia and the UK causing many professional athletes to travel abroad to Germany

Our PRP treatments are performed in a private hospital in Bangkok and under the careful supervision of a Board certified Biologist and Licensed Thai Medical Doctors. The entire PRP procedure is quick and there’s generally no need for overnight hospitalization (depending on the severity of injury). The first PRP injections can offer immediate relief but more serious injuries may require multiple treatments over a span of one to 3 months depending on the severity of the injury and rehab needs. PRP Therapy generally needs to be performed two-three weeks apart and no sooner than that. We also offer full rehabilitation facilities with licensed physical therapists and strength and conditioning coaches available upon request.
