Regain Your Sense of Smell with PRP Therapy
Losing your sense of smell, whether from COVID-19, a viral infection, or another condition can make life feel incomplete. Smell connects us to food, memories, and experiences. For some, loss of smell lingers far longer than expected.
Now, there’s a treatment option available in the Black Hills which has been shown to improve sense of smell in over 80% of patients. Watch this video below to learn more about Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) treatements.
Dr. Dallin Christensen, ENT specialist at Rapid City Medical Center, is the only physician in the area offering Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injections for loss of smell.
How do PRP Injections Work?
- PRP is derived from a sample of your own blood, which is separated to isolate your own body’s growth and healing factors.
- These healing factors are carefully injected to stimulate regeneration of the olfactory system.
- The goal: enable recovery of smell function in a natural, minimally invasive way.
Why Choose PRP with Dr. Christensen?
- PRP is effective and safe, with the majority of patients experiencing improved sense of smell with minimal to no side effects
- Only specialist in the region offering this therapy
- Personalized care close to home
“Loss of smell can be incredibly frustrating and isolating. PRP gives us a promising new tool to help patients regain this vital sense.” – Dr. Dallin Christensen
