🔹 PRP & GFC Injections – Advanced Non-Surgical Treatment
What is PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Injection?
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a cutting-edge regenerative treatment that uses your own blood to accelerate healing.
A small sample of blood is taken and processed to concentrate platelets, which are rich in growth factors. These growth factors are then injected into the injured area to stimulate tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and enhance recovery.
PRP is widely used in sports medicine for:
Ligament injuries (ACL, MCL)
Tendon injuries (tennis elbow, Achilles tendinopathy)
Muscle injuries
Early osteoarthritis
Chronic pain conditions
👉 It is especially useful when patients are not responding to physiotherapy but want to avoid surgery.
What is GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) Injection?
GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) is an advanced and more refined version of PRP therapy.
Instead of using platelets and other blood components, GFC isolates pure growth factors responsible for healing and regeneration.
This results in:
More targeted healing
Reduced inflammation
Faster recovery
Less post-injection discomfort
GFC is commonly used for:
Knee osteoarthritis
Tendon & ligament injuries
Cartilage damage
Sports injuries
Post-surgical recovery support
