How PRP Works for DDiabetic Foot Ulcers

  • Delivering growth factors and healing proteins directly to the ulcer site

  • Stimulating new tissue growth and blood vessel formation (angiogenesis)

  • Reducing inflammation and promoting collagen production

  • Creating a more favourable environment for faster wound healing

The PRP Procedure for Diabetic Foot Ulcers

  1. Blood Draw
    A small sample of your blood is taken (usually from your arm).

  2. Centrifuge Spin
    The blood is spun in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelet-rich plasma.

  3. Application to the Ulcer
    The PRP is applied in one of two ways:

  • Injected around the ulcer (subcutaneously)

  • Or used as a topical gel or dressing placed directly on the wound

   4.Wound Care
The site is covered with a sterile dressing and monitored closely. This may be repeated once a week for several weeks, depending on healing progress.

Efficacy of PRP for Diabetic Foot Ulcers

  • PRP significantly accelerates healing of chronic non-healing diabetic ulcers

  • Improves wound closure rates and reduces the risk of infection or amputation

  • May reduce healing time compared to traditional wound care alone

  • Especially effective in chronic ulcers that haven’t responded to other treatments

Who Might Benefit from PRP?

  • Patients with severe or refractory dry eye unresponsive to artificial tears or medications.

  • Individuals with ocular surface diseases like Sjögren’s syndrome, graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), or chemical burns.
