What does the price include?
The price of PRP at The London PRP Clinic by The Wellness covers the doctor-led consultation, the blood draw, preparation of the plasma in a closed, medical-grade system, and the injection under sterile conditions. Patients receive a written aftercare and rehabilitation plan.
Patients comparing clinics should ask four questions. Is a doctor performing the injection? Is the consultation included? Which preparation system is used? Is aftercare and follow-up included? A lower headline price can become the higher total when these elements are charged separately.

Does PRP for joints actually work?
PRP for joints has its strongest evidence in early to moderate knee osteoarthritis and chronic tendon pain. A 2025 meta-analysis in the American Journal of Sports Medicine found PRP gave clinically relevant improvement in knee function over placebo at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months. A 2017 meta-analysis in The Physician and Sportsmedicine found PRP outperformed steroid injection for tennis elbow pain at six months and one year.
The evidence also has honest limits. Results vary with platelet concentration, preparation method and the stage of the condition, and PRP is less effective in advanced, bone-on-bone arthritis. That is why every patient starts with a doctor's review.

Who is a good candidate for joint PRP?
Good candidates for joint PRP have early to moderate osteoarthritis or chronic tendon pain that has not settled with exercise and physiotherapy. Typical features include the following.
- Joint or tendon pain lasting more than three months.
- X-ray or scan findings of mild to moderate change, or a clear clinical diagnosis.
- A wish to stay active, avoid repeated steroid injections or delay surgery.
- No active infection, platelet disorder or recent steroid injection into the same area.
Patients with advanced arthritis or a full-thickness tendon tear may be better served by a surgical opinion, and our doctors say so honestly.

How many injections will I need?
