MSK PRP Injections:
Harnessing Your Body's Natural Healing Power

Are you struggling with persistent joint pain, tendon damage, or a sports injury that won’t fully heal? Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy is an innovative, non-surgical treatment that utilises your own biology to stimulate repair and regeneration of damaged tissues.

At Doctors Express, we offer advanced, precision-guided PRP injections for a variety of musculoskeletal conditions, helping you find lasting relief and return to an active, pain-free life.

What is PRP Therapy?

PRP is a concentration of your body’s own platelets, which are tiny cells in your blood responsible for clotting and, more importantly, carrying vital growth factors. When injected into an injured area, these growth factors jumpstart the healing process by:

  • Stimulating new cell growth in tendons, ligaments, and cartilage.
  • Reducing inflammation and pain.
  • Improving overall tissue strength and function.

Since PRP is derived from your own blood, the risk of allergic reactions or rejection is virtually eliminated.

Precision Matters: Ultrasound-Guided Injections:

For PRP therapy to be effective, the concentration of growth factors must be delivered precisely to the area of injury.

Our expert physicians perform all musculoskeletal PRP procedures using state-of-the-art ultrasound guidance. This real-time imaging allows us to visualise the damaged tissue and surrounding structures, ensuring the needle is placed exactly where it needs to be – maximising the therapy’s effectiveness and your chances for a successful outcome.

Our Commitment to Quality: The CarePRP System

To ensure you receive the highest therapeutic benefit, we utilise the specialised CarePRP system for processing your blood.
The quality of your PRP is determined by the concentration of platelets and the removal of unwanted components. The CarePRP system is a highly advanced, closed-system kit designed to:

  • Isolate and Concentrate the highest quality platelets and beneficial growth factors.
  • Minimise Contaminants (like red blood cells and inflammatory white blood cells) which can reduce the effectiveness of the treatment.

By using the CarePRP system, we ensure the regenerative solution we inject is of the highest possible potency and purity, giving your body the best tools for healing.

PRP is a highly effective treatment for many acute and chronic conditions, including :

  • Elbow : Tennis Elbow and Golfer’s Elbow
  • Shoulder : Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy, Biceps Tendinitis and early-stage Osteoarthritis
  • Knee : Patellar Tendinosis and mild to moderate Knee Osteoarthritis
  • Foot/Ankle : Achilles Tendinopathy and Plantar Fasciitis

Plus certain types of chronic low back pain related to ligaments and joints as well as other ligament sprains, muscle strains and chronic tendon inflammation.

The entire procedure is typically completed in under an hour right here in our clinic :

  • Blood Draw : A small amount of your blood is drawn from your arm.
  • Processing : Your blood is spun in a specialised centrifuge. This separates and concentrates the Platelet-Rich Plasma.
  • Injection : Using ultrasound guidance for precise targeting, your physician injects the PRP into the area of injury. A local anesthetic can be used to minimise discomfort.
  • Post-Care : You will receive specific instructions for rest and rehabilitation. Most patients experience mild soreness at the injection site for a few days, followed by gradual improvement over several weeks as the healing process begins.
