Plasmapheresis

A Gentle Process That Removes Harm, Restores Balance, and Brings Relief

Some illnesses place a heavy burden on the body. Antibodies start attacking healthy organs, proteins thicken the blood, or harmful substances rise suddenly and cause weakness, breathlessness, or confusion. For patients and families, these moments can be frightening and overwhelming. Plasmapheresis offers the body a chance to recover by removing what is harming it, cleansing the blood gently, and restoring balance. At Renacare, we make this advanced treatment safe, affordable, and comforting right inside our center and dialysis unit.

What is Plasmapheresis

  • Blood is drawn into a specialized machine
  • The harmful plasma (containing antibodies, toxins, abnormal proteins) is separated
  • It is replaced with clean plasma or a plasma substitute
  • Purified blood is returned back to the body

It is a controlled, peaceful process that helps the immune system reset and reduces the burden on vital organs.

Plasmapheresis is often required for sudden or severe immune-related, neurological, or kidney conditions. These illnesses can progress quickly, and early intervention brings the best outcomes.
