What is PRP?
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a collection of a person’s own platelets and other regenerative cells that can enhance healing and tissue regeneration. It is created by taking a small sample of blood and spinning it in a centrifuge to separate the various cells and to concentrate the platelets.
Why Tropocells® PRP?
The Tropocells® PRP system consistently provides an optimal platelet rich plasma formula:
- No Red blood cells (RBCs are toxic to cartilage and can induce a painful inflammatory flare)
- Low neutrophils (neutrophils promote inflammation and tissue breakdown)
- High number of monocytes (the cells that encourage healing) This high-quality system has high platelet yields so less blood needs to be drawn for treatment
What is included in the kit?
This kit contains an 11ml Tropocells PRP tube with advanced gel separation technology that removes cells that promote inflammation and catabolism and sterile injection consumables. This kit is intended to be brought to your scheduled PRP injection appointment with the healthcare specialist who has recommended it.
