What is Superdose Growth Factor (Superdose AP-PRP)?
Superdose Growth Factor in the form of Superdose 10 Billion Cells is a biotherapeutic innovation that extracts platelets and regenerative cells from the patient’s own blood, achieving a high concentration of 10 billion cells. Rather than a synthetic drug, it is a natural component rich in concentrated growth factors, ensuring high safety with no risk of allergic reactions. This treatment prioritizes maximum efficacy in signaling the body to restore and repair damaged tissue structures rather than simply providing joint lubrication. Furthermore, it precisely targets and reduces chronic inflammation, the root cause of pain.
Benefits of Superdose Growth Factor
- Reduce chronic pain and swelling.
- Stimulate the production of collagen and new cells.
- Accelerate the recovery of damaged tissues, tendons, and joints.
What is Prolotherapy?
Prolotherapy involves injecting a concentrated solution, such as a dextrose (glucose) solution, into the injured area to stimulate a mild inflammatory process in the body. This process naturally triggers tissue repair. This method is suitable for treating chronic pain and degenerated joints.
Benefits of Prolotherapy
- Increase joint stability and reduce degeneration.
- Stimulate new tissue growth and strengthen tendons.
- Help treat chronic injuries, such as loose knee and other joints.
