Regenerative Medicine
What does regenerative medicine do?
The human body is continually repairing itself. You can see this whenever a cut heals, or your hair and nails grow. Regenerative medicine stimulates and amplifies these natural processes, facilitating recovery from diseases, damage, and the impacts of aging. By guiding the body’s powerful self-healing mechanisms, regenerative medicine can alleviate pain and restore lost functionality.

Understanding your condition
What is regenerative medicine?
Regenerative medicine is an exciting field that focuses on repairing, replacing, or regenerating human cells and tissues to restore normal function. By harnessing the body’s natural healing processes, this innovative approach aims to treat a variety of conditions. This includes the use of biologically active substances, such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), which can stimulate the body’s own healing potential.
The use of PRP (platelet-rich plasma) and PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) has been benefiting patients in orthopedics and reconstructive surgery for years.
Here’s how they work:
- PRP is a concentrate of plasma protein derived from whole blood. It’s created by centrifuging blood to remove red blood cells while retaining the platelets. Platelets contain growth factors that can trigger cell reproduction and stimulate tissue regeneration and healing.
- PRF contains even higher concentrations of platelets and growth factors, which helps stimulate stem cells. This allows your body to regenerate and heal at a faster pace. PRF injections also aid in remodeling the extracellular matrix and induce the synthesis of collagen, which is essential for rejuvenating the skin.
The key benefits of PRP and PRF are that they harness your body’s own natural healing powers to provide effective, natural treatments for orthopedic, reconstructive, and aesthetic procedures. These innovative therapies have been transforming patient outcomes for years.
Regenerative medicine
What is a PRP / PRF injection?
After drawing a sample of the patient’s blood, the regenerative medicine practitioner creates a PRP or PRF solution. She then injects this solution directly into the target area, such as a knee, hairline, or even under the eyes. The goal of PRP / PRF injections is to increase the concentration of specific growth factors in the target area. These natural bioproteins and hormones can stimulate and accelerate the healing process, potentially shortening recovery time, reducing pain, and even promoting hair growth.
While the exact mechanisms behind PRP / PRF are not yet fully understood, studies suggest the higher concentration of growth factors in the PRP / PRF helps kickstart the body’s natural healing response. This can provide relief and support recovery for a variety of injuries and conditions.
Regenerative medicine
What is PRP / PRF used for?
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) and PRF (platelet-rich plasma) injections treat a variety of conditions, from musculoskeletal pain and injuries to cosmetic and sexual wellness procedures.

Ankle pain can severely impact your quality of life. BionwoRx provides regenerative ankle pain treatments with little to no recovery time needed. Our goal is to relieve pain, improve mobility, and get you back on your feet.
Hair loss.
Regenerative therapies can provide successful treatments for thinning hair without surgery and the complications or contraindications of prescription hair stimulation medications.
PRP Hair Restoration is a non-surgical hair rejuvenation treatment that addresses age-related hair thinning, male or female pattern baldness, alopecia, low hair follicle density, and more.
Skin rejuvenation.
PRP / PRF injections may be able to help address various skin and facial concerns.
PRF Facial.
A PRP Facial is a microneedling treatment that activates your body’s natural abilities to repair and heal itself to improve skin tone, texture, quality, and appearance.
Conditions include fine lines and wrinkles, acne scarring, crepey skin, uneven skin tone, and patchy skin.
PRF Facelift.
A PRF Facelift is a non-surgical facial rejuvenation treatment that harnesses your body’s own healing properties to replenish lost facial volume and smooth wrinkles and fine lines.
Treatment areas include the under-eye area, cheeks, nasal labial folds and jawline.
Sexual dysfunction.
PRP injections may be able to help address sexual dysfunction issues.
Man Shot.
The Man Shot is a regenerative treatment that works to boost male sexual function and treat male erectile concerns such as erectile dysfunction, size and shape issues, and erection-related pain.
V-Shot.
The V-Shot is an injectable treatment that addresses a variety of sexual problems for ladies, including low libido, vaginal dryness, pain during intercourse, and urinary incontinence.
What are the benefits of regeneration medicine?
Regenerative medicine holds incredible potential to treat many conditions that are currently challenging to manage. The benefits of this innovative field are numerous.
Promotes natural healing.
It can prompt the body to heal itself, promoting natural healing.
Treats chronic conditions.
It can help treat chronic conditions like osteoarthritis, chronic tendonitis, and degenerative disc disease.
Aids in recovery.
It can aid in the recovery from acute injuries and wounds
Minimally invasive.
It is minimally invasive, often only requiring a simple injection rather than surgery.
Customized treatments.
It can utilize a patient’s own cells to create personalized, customized treatments.
By harnessing the power of the body’s natural regenerative abilities, regenerative medicine is poised to revolutionize healthcare and improve outcomes for patients struggling with a wide range of difficult-to-treat conditions.
Our favorite benefits of regenerative medicine.
You want to stop suffering from these chronic conditions and we can help. At BionwoRx, we offer cutting-edge, minimally invasive regenerative treatments that have been shown to help patients in reducing or eliminating chronic pain all over the body. Here are our four favorite benefits of regenerative medicine procedures.
Relief of chronic pain.
Regenerative procedures can provide relief of chronic joint pain by potentially healing damaged tissue, building new tissue, reducing inflammation and preventing scar tissue from forming in the treatment area.
Avoid surgery.
Regenerative medicine treatments can potentially help patients avoid risky, invasive and intense surgeries such as joint replacements.
Lowered risk.
Compared to traditional surgeries, regenerative medicine procedures are extremely low risk, as the patients’ own cells are used to heal the injured areas and there are none of the risks associated with replacing joints with artificial devices There is also no need for general anesthesia to be used, so all of the risks associated with that are removed.
Little downtime.
Patients are able to avoid the lengthy periods of downtime and painful rehabilitation that typically follow invasive surgeries. This is an especially important factor for athletes of all levels.
FAQs.
Can regenerative treatments help relieve chronic pain?
Regenerative cell procedures can provide relief of chronic pain by potentially healing damaged tissue, building new tissue, reducing inflammation and preventing scar tissue from forming in the injured area.
Are the risks lower with regenerative procedures compared to surgery?

Is it possible to avoid surgery with regenerative treatments?
Cell-based orthopedic treatments can potentially help patients avoid risky, invasive and intense surgeries such as joint replacements.
How much downtime can I expect following treatment?
Patients are able to avoid the lengthy periods of downtime and painful rehabilitation that typically follow invasive surgeries. This is an especially important factor for athletes of all levels. Regenerative medicine patients are encouraged to move around as much as they comfortably can following the procedure, and to start physical therapy just a couple of days afterward.
How long does it take to health from a regenerative medicine procedure?
Healing continues for weeks and months after the procedure, as the regenerative cells work to repair the damaged areas and improve the health of the tissues.
