Dr. Charles Mok explains PRP/PRF injections for joint pain, typically given as three shots spaced two weeks to a month apart. Symptom improvement usually lasts about a year, and adding hyaluronic acid and a sugar alcohol can slow breakdown and extend results. The treatment may substantially reduce pain and delay knee replacement.

Typically, the PRP PRF is done a series of three injections about two weeks or a month apart. We typically see improvement for about a year or so of symptoms. We have ways that make that work better, such as adding something called cross linked hyaluronic acid to it and sugar alcohol to keep that from breaking down. So we can even augment that further to make it work, say, more better. PRP PRF would be done a series of three treatments to get moderate improvement for about a year. And that could certainly put off the need for a knee replacement. And typically your pain reduction will be, you know, substantial, clinically significant.
