Are you sick of seeing knee replacements fail among relatives and friends? So did this gentleman from Kolkata who was disillusioned with the hardships that his close relatives faced after a knee replacement. He decided to get a platelet-rich stroma ( PRS) treatment for his knee arthritis. Listen to his testimonial here. Many patients have benefited from PRS or SVF treatment in Chennai
What is PRS treatment?
Platelet-rich stroma (PRS) treatment in Chennai, India is a cutting-edge therapy for knee osteoarthritis (OA) that utilizes the patient’s own adipose (fat) tissue and PRP to promote healing and reduce pain. The treatment begins with a liposuction procedure to harvest adipose tissue from the patient’s thigh. The tissue is then processed to isolate stromal vascular fraction (SVF), which is a rich mixture of cells that include adipose-derived stem cells, endothelial cells, and other stromal cells. Once the SVF is prepared, it is mixed with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to yield PRS, which is injected directly into the knee joint, where it can promote healing and repair of the damaged cartilage. The stem cells in the SVF can differentiate into various types of cells, including chondrocytes (cartilage cells), which can help to rebuild the damaged cartilage in the knee joint. Additionally, the SVF can stimulate the production of growth factors and other molecules that promote healing and reduce inflammation. PRP provides growth factors.
What is the result of PRS treatment
PRS treatment is a minimally invasive procedure that is performed on an outpatient basis. Patients typically experience minimal pain and discomfort during the procedure and can return to normal activities within a few days. The effects of the treatment can be seen within a few weeks and may continue to improve over time. Overall, PRS treatment for knee OA is a promising new therapy that utilizes the patient’s own cells to promote healing and reduce pain. It is a safe and effective option for patients who are seeking an alternative to traditional treatments such as surgery or medication. Platelet-rich stroma was injected into both knees of this gentleman for knee osteoarthritis, following which he has made a quick recovery.
