Knee pain and injury can affect different structures within and around the joint, including the cartilage, ligaments, tendons and other soft tissues. Symptoms may develop following an injury or through longer-term conditions such as osteoarthritis.

PRP may be considered for certain knee conditions, depending on the underlying cause, the severity and duration of symptoms and the individual's circumstances. It is not suitable for every type of knee injury or every patient.

At JG Aesthetics, a consultation is required before PRP treatment. Your symptoms, medical history, previous treatment and individual circumstances will be assessed to determine whether PRP may be an appropriate option for you.
