Introducing Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Injection


At Alto Imaging, we are proud to offer Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injection therapy as part of our comprehensive range of services. PRP therapy harnesses the body's natural healing properties to accelerate tissue repair and promote pain relief.


How Does PRP Therapy Work?



Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is derived from your own blood, which is processed to concentrate the platelets and growth factors. These concentrated platelets are then injected into the affected joint or tissue, where they release healing proteins and stimulate the body's natural regenerative processes.

Benefits of PRP Injection Therapy

Non-Surgical

PRP therapy offers a non-surgical alternative for managing joint pain and promoting tissue repair, reducing the need for invasive procedures.

Natural Healing

By utilising your body's own healing mechanisms, PRP therapy promotes natural tissue repair and regeneration.

Minimal Downtime

PRP injections are performed on an outpatient basis, allowing you to return to your daily activities with minimal downtime.

Conditions Treated with PRP Therapy


PRP injection therapy has been shown to be effective in treating a variety of musculoskeletal conditions, including

Osteoarthritis

PRP therapy can help alleviate pain and improve joint function in patients with osteoarthritis.
