PRP and Tissue Fatigue: When Healing Slows Down
Not all injuries are dramatic. Sometimes, the real issue is quiet and gradual — a sense that healing simply isn’t happening the way it used to. Over time, tissues can enter a state of biological fatigue , where repair mechanisms slow, inflammation lingers, and regeneration becomes inefficient. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) offers a way to reawaken these tired systems — not by forcing repair, but by restoring the signals that drive it. Condition Overview Tissue fatigue develops when cells experience repeated stress without adequate recovery. This may occur due to aging, chronic inflammation, overuse, metabolic imbalance, or reduced circulation. Common examples include: Persistent tendon discomfort Mild but ongoing joint stiffness Skin that appears dull or slow to recover Hair follicles that gradually miniaturize Wounds that take longer than expected to heal Unlike acute injury, tissue fatigue doesn’t always present dramatic symptoms — but over time, it compromises r...
