How Often Should PRP Be Done?

It is standard that PRP injection therapy consists of 2-3 injections spaced anywhere from 4-6 weeks apart, with the treatment lasting approximately 6 months. For chronic injuries and conditions, to achieve long-term results, individuals are more likely to have to undergo multiple series of PRP injections while for acute conditions, it is more likely for only one series or injection to provide adequate results. So, while there is certainly a picture of the average intervals of PRP injections, it is a flexible variable and may be altered if a physician deems it appropriate.
