Recently we introduced regenerative medicine services at Revive Biohacking to help our clients optimize their health naturally and Live Better Longer. Since then, many people have asked an important question.
Which regenerative treatment is right for me? PRP? Exosomes? Stem cells? Peptides?
The truth is that everyone’s needs are different, which is why personalized evaluations matter. To help you understand the differences, Rick Ornelas, co owner of Revive, shares his own experience.
Rick’s Shoulder Story
For more than four years, Rick struggled with ongoing pain and limitations in his left shoulder. An MRI showed tears, bone spurs, and a narrowing of the joint space. The result was pain, reduced strength, and a constant restriction in the activities he enjoyed most.
Like many people, he followed the traditional route. His orthopedic surgeon recommended physical therapy and steroid injections. The injections helped temporarily, but the relief was always short lived. The pain always returned, often worse, and he realized the injections were masking symptoms rather than correcting the underlying problem.
When Revive began offering regenerative medicine in September, Rick was one of the first to try the full spectrum of treatments. His shoulder responded quickly.
PRP first provided relief and better mobility.
Exosomes next created a noticeable drop in pain and an increase in strength within a week.
Another PRPÂ continued pushing the healing forward.
The Recovery Blend peptide program accelerated everything. Within three days, he experienced full range of motion in the gym for the first time in years.
Rick is now well on the road to full recovery. Every therapy played a role, and together they created a true healing response instead of short-term masking.
This leads into the core message of this article.
Understanding the Good, Better, Best of Regenerative Medicine
Most people want to know the difference between PRP, exosomes, and stem cells. Here is the simplest way to understand them.
GOOD: PRP for Foundational Healing
PRP, or platelet rich plasma, uses your own blood to stimulate healing.Platelets are full of natural growth factors that help repair damaged tissue.
PRP is ideal for:• Mild to moderate joint pain• Tendon or ligament irritation• Chronic inflammation• Early-stage injuries
Benefits:• Reduces pain• Improves mobility• Supports natural tissue repair
PRP is safe, powerful, and a perfect starting point for foundational healing especially in younger individuals.
BETTER: Exosomes for Accelerated Cell Signaling
If PRP is the spark, exosomes are the communication system that spreads the message. Exosomes are tiny signaling molecules that tell your body’s cells to repair, regenerate, and reduce inflammation.
Exosomes are ideal for:• Moderate to advanced joint pain• Tissue damage needing faster repair• People who did not respond to PRP alone• Those needing deeper cellular support
Benefits:• Faster recovery• Stronger anti-inflammatory response• Improved healing at the cellular level
Exosomes provide the next level of results compared to PRP.
BEST: Stem Cells for the Most Complete Regenerative Support
Stem cells are the most advanced regenerative treatment available.They are powerful cells capable of signaling repair and guiding tissue renewal throughout the body.
Stem cells are ideal for:• Significant joint degeneration• Long term or persistent pain• Complex or multi-site injuries• Individuals wanting the strongest natural alternative to surgery
Benefits:• The strongest regenerative response• Longer lasting results• Comprehensive tissue and joint support
Stem cells are the top tier option when someone wants the best possible outcome.
How Peptides Fit In: The Healing Accelerator
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as messengers in the body. They support healing, reduce inflammation, and help repair tissue from the inside out.
At Revive, peptides are often combined with PRP, exosomes, or stem cells because they:• Speed up recovery• Improve tissue repair• Reduce inflammation• Support long term results• Help your body stay in a healing state
Rick’s results were a perfect example. PRP and exosomes helped his shoulder begin the healing process, and peptides kept the momentum going.
