Hydrodissection

In functional medicine Hydrodissection injection is used in cases of fat pad impingement with fibrosis. The Hydrodissection injection consists of water injected in the area to separate scar tissue from nerves and tendons the scar tissue is stuck to. Hoping someone here may give some input on this potential treatment. Thanks

Hi Rick,

As mentioned in my email, I believe that PRP is contra-indicated for fibrosis. It increases all the powerful pro-fibrosis factors that stimulate more scar tissue production and contraction. PRP also carries a risk of infection. Hydrodissection on it's own is an interesting option, usually sterile saline or anaesthetic is used.

All the best,

Kayley
