Joint Pain

At Sun and Skin Medical Centre in Mt. Eliza, Victoria, we offer Liquid Gold PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy for joint pain, a cutting-edge, non-surgical treatment that uses your body’s natural healing mechanisms to reduce pain and inflammation while promoting joint repair. Whether you’re dealing with arthritis, sports injuries, or chronic joint discomfort, Liquid Gold PRP can provide long-lasting relief and improve your quality of life.

Liquid Gold PRP therapy involves extracting platelet-rich plasma from your blood, which is rich in growth factors and proteins. When injected into a joint, PRP stimulates the body’s natural healing process, reducing inflammation, repairing damaged tissue, and improving joint mobility.

This therapy is particularly effective for individuals looking for a natural, minimally invasive alternative to surgery or long-term medication.

PRP therapy works by delivering concentrated growth factors to the affected area:

1. Blood Collection: A small sample of your blood is drawn.
2. Centrifugation: The blood is processed in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelet-rich plasma.
3. Targeted Injection: Under strict sterile technique, the PRP is injected into the affected joint, targeting areas of pain and inflammation.
4. Healing and Regeneration: The PRP promotes tissue repair, reduces inflammation, and enhances joint function.

PRP therapy can address a range of joint-related conditions, including:

• Osteoarthritis: Reduces pain and inflammation in knees, hips, and other joints.
• Sports Injuries: Promotes healing of tendon, ligament, and cartilage injuries.
• Tendonitis: Treats inflammation in tendons such as the elbow (tennis elbow) or shoulder.
• Chronic Joint Pain: Provides relief for persistent discomfort in the knees, ankles, wrists, and more.

PRP therapy offers numerous advantages over traditional treatments:

• Natural Healing: Utilizes your body’s own plasma for a biocompatible and safe solution.
• Reduces Pain and Inflammation: Targets the source of discomfort for lasting relief.
• Improved Mobility: Enhances joint function and range of motion.
• Non-Surgical Treatment: Avoids the risks and recovery time associated with surgery.
• Long-Lasting Effects: Promotes tissue repair and healing over time.

At Sun and Skin Medical Centre, we ensure a comfortable and effective PRP experience:

1. Consultation: Our specialists assess your condition and discuss your goals to create a personalized treatment plan.
2. Blood Collection: A small sample of blood is drawn from your arm.
3. Precise Injection: The PRP is carefully and under full sterile technique is injected into the affected joint using ultrasound guidance if necessary.
4. Minimal Downtime: Most clients can resume normal activities within 24-48 hours, with gradual improvement in symptoms over weeks.

• Sessions: Typically 2-3 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart.
• Results: Improvements may be noticeable within a few weeks, with continued benefits as the joint heals over several months.

• Suffer from joint pain due to arthritis, injury, or overuse.
