Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy

Companion Animal Clinic, your trusted vet in the area, serving Ames and Gilbert, IA, is proud to offer a revolutionary treatment that harnesses your pet's natural healing abilities to accelerate recovery and improve overall well-being. We provide a specialized form of PRP therapy called PUREVET PRP. This breakthrough product for pets utilizes blood plasma with concentrated platelets, which, when activated, accelerates the healing properties of isolated growth factors. It’s an affordable and effective alternative to traditional human treatments.

How does PRP Therapy work?

During a PRP therapy session, our experienced veterinarians draw a small amount of your pet's blood. The blood is processed using a specialized centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma from other components. The PRP is then carefully injected into the affected area, releasing a high concentration of growth factors and bioactive proteins that stimulate tissue repair and reduce inflammation. This treatment offers an all-natural, affordable alternative to drugs and steroids.
