Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy for Pets

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injections are an advanced regenerative medicine option designed to help reduce pain and support healing in pets with joint disease or injury. This innovative therapy uses your pet’s own biology to stimulate the body’s natural repair processes.

What Is PRP Therapy?

PRP therapy begins with a blood sample drawn from your pet. That sample is processed to concentrate platelets, creating platelet-rich plasma. These platelets contain powerful growth factors that play a key role in tissue repair and regeneration.

Once prepared, the PRP is injected directly into the affected joint, targeting the source of pain and inflammation.

How PRP Helps

After injection, PRP works by:

  • Releasing growth factors that stimulate healing

  • Activating local stem cells

  • Increasing blood flow to the injured area

  • Supporting tissue repair while reducing inflammation and discomfort

Because PRP is derived from your pet’s own blood, the risk of adverse reactions is extremely low.

How Long Does PRP Last?

Many pets experience relief for 6 months or longer after a single injection.
In more severe or advanced cases, 2–3 initial injections may be recommended to achieve the best results.

Conditions That May Benefit from PRP

PRP therapy may be helpful for pets experiencing:

  • Osteoarthritis

  • Joint pain or stiffness

  • Ligament or tendon injuries

  • Degenerative joint conditions

Your veterinarian will determine if PRP is an appropriate option based on your pet’s condition and overall health.

What is PRP therapy?

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is a regenerative treatment that uses your pet’s own blood to help reduce joint pain and support healing. It is commonly used for arthritis and joint injuries.

How does PRP work?

We draw a small blood sample from your pet and process it to concentrate the platelets. These platelets contain growth factors that help the body heal. The PRP is then injected directly into the painful joint.

What does PRP do once it’s injected?

PRP releases growth factors that:

  • Stimulate healing

  • Activate stem cells

  • Increase blood flow

  • Reduce inflammation and discomfort

This helps improve joint function and comfort over time.

How long does PRP last?

Many pets experience relief for 6 months or longer from just one injection.
In more severe cases, 2–3 injections may be recommended at the beginning for best results.

Is PRP safe?

Yes. Because PRP is made from your pet’s own blood, the risk of reactions or side effects is very low.

What conditions can PRP help treat?

PRP is often used for:

  • Arthritis

  • Joint pain or stiffness

  • Degenerative joint disease

Your veterinarian will help determine if PRP is right for your pet.

Will my pet need sedation?

Yes, sedation is used to keep your pet comfortable and still during the injection.

When will we see results?

Some pets show improvement within a few weeks, while others continue to improve gradually as healing occurs.

Is PRP right for my pet?

PRP may be a good option for pets who:

  • Have chronic joint pain

  • Cannot tolerate certain medications

  • Need additional pain relief beyond traditional treatments

Your veterinarian will discuss whether PRP is appropriate based on your pet’s individual needs.
