Common questions
Frequently asked
What is a PRP injection?
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a concentrated platelet preparation made from a small sample of the patient's own blood. It may be considered for selected tendon, joint and soft tissue conditions.
Is PRP performed under ultrasound guidance?
Where clinically appropriate, PRP injections are performed under ultrasound guidance to support accurate, targeted delivery to the intended structure.
Where in Sydney are PRP injections performed?
Consultations and procedures are at Balmain Sports Medicine, 118 Victoria Road, Rozelle NSW 2039 — serving patients across Sydney's Inner West, Eastern Suburbs, North Shore and CBD.
Does PRP replace rehabilitation?
No. PRP and other interventional procedures are considered alongside rehabilitation, exercise and broader management — not as a substitute for them.
Am I suitable for PRP?
Suitability is highly individual and decided after specialist assessment, relevant imaging, and shared discussion of evidence, expectations and alternatives.
