- PRP Therapy – PRP is short for “platelet-rich plasma.” This is an element of one’s blood that can be injected into other areas of the body to speed healing and recovery. PRP is used for patients struggling with chronic pain of the muscles and joints, or even for those interested in hair regrowth. At Orthopedic Associates of Long Island, patients can achieve results with their own plasma!
- BMAC Therapy – Another solution for patients is that of bone marrow aspirate concentrate, or BMAC. BMAC also harnesses the body’s natural healing properties but is harvested from a patient’s bone marrow instead of from their blood. BMAC has been used successfully for tissue regeneration.
