Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy in Dallas, TX
At RegenOrthoSport in Dallas, Dr. Venkatesh Movva offers advanced regenerative medicine treatments designed to help your body heal naturally. One of the most widely used procedures is platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy. This non-surgical treatment uses the healing potential of your own blood to accelerate tissue repair, reduce pain, and restore function for orthopedic injuries and arthritis.
What is Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)?
Platelets are blood cells best known for their role in clotting, but they also contain powerful growth factors that signal the body to repair damaged tissue. PRP therapy works by highly concentrating these platelets and reinjecting them precisely into the area of injury.
Here’s how it works:
1. A blood sample is drawn from your arm. The amount will vary based on your unique condition and treatment plan.
2. The blood is processed in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate platelets.
3. The resulting platelet-rich plasma is injected precisely into the injured area using ultrasound or X-ray guidance.
This concentrated plasma delivers a much higher dose of growth factors than what naturally circulates in the bloodstream, helping stimulate the body’s natural tissue repair process, to reduce pain and improve function.
Dr. Venkatesh Movva, a leader in sports medicine and regenerative orthopedic care, is fellowship-trained in Sports Medicine and board-certified in Pain Management. He founded RegenOrthoSport to pioneer non-invasive regenerative treatments and their use in orthopedics.

What is PRP Used For?
PRP therapy is commonly recommended for a variety of musculoskeletal injuries and degenerative conditions, especially when conservative treatments haven’t provided lasting relief.
Conditions treated with PRP include:
- Osteoarthritis – knees, hips, shoulders, and ankles
- Muscle andTendon injuries – tennis elbow, Achilles tendonitis, rotator cuff damage
- Ligament sprains – ACL, MCL, and other soft tissue injuries
- Sports injuries – chronic pain from overuse or repetitive motion
- Post-surgical healing support – to enhance recovery and tissue repair
Benefits of PRP Therapy
Patients choose PRP because it is a safe, minimally invasive option that uses the body’s own healing mechanisms.
Key benefits include:
- Uses your own blood – no risk of rejection or disease transmission
- Non-surgical treatment – outpatient injection procedure
- Stimulates natural healing – addresses the underlying cause of pain, not just symptoms
- Faster Recovery – Shorter downtime and faster recovery compared to surgical procedures
- May reduce or delay the need for surgery – for arthritis or tendon/ligament injuries
What to Expect Following Platelet Rich Plasma Treatment
Since PRP is a same-day procedure, most patients return home shortly after treatment. You may notice mild soreness or stiffness in the treated area for several days as your body responds to the injection.
-
Immediately after: Expect some discomfort at the injection site.
-
First few weeks: Gradual improvement in pain and function as healing begins.
-
2–6 months: Continued progress as tissue repair strengthens over time.
Unlike pain-relieving injections such as cortisone, PRP is designed to promote long-term tissue healing, so results often improve over several months. Dr. Movva provides each patient with a customized rehabilitation plan to optimize recovery.
