PRP Injections

About PRP Injections

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injection therapy at M&S Vascular and Orthopedic Group in Forest Hills uses your body's own healing power to accelerate tissue repair and reduce pain. Dr. Mehran Manoel offers PRP as a non-surgical treatment for a wide range of orthopedic conditions including tendinitis, partial ligament tears, early arthritis, and chronic joint pain. The procedure involves drawing a small sample of your blood, concentrating the platelets and growth factors in a centrifuge, and injecting the PRP directly into the injured area under ultrasound guidance. PRP therapy stimulates your body's natural healing response, promoting tissue regeneration and reducing inflammation. This regenerative approach is increasingly popular among patients in Forest Hills and Queens who want to avoid surgery and recover faster.

What to Expect

A PRP treatment session takes about 45-60 minutes at our Forest Hills office. A small blood sample is drawn, processed in a centrifuge for about 15 minutes, then injected precisely into the treatment area using ultrasound guidance. Most patients experience mild soreness for a few days. Improvement develops gradually over 4-6 weeks as healing occurs.

Who Is This For?

Adults with tendinitis, partial tendon or ligament tears, early osteoarthritis, chronic joint pain, or sports injuries seeking a non-surgical regenerative treatment option.
