How long before you start seeing results of PRP for hair?

Question

I'm thinking of doing the PRP before my hair transplant and I was wondering how long does it take before you see the results ?

Jaime S. Schwartz, MD, FACS · Answer

I appreciate your question.It can take 6-9 months before you see the full results. Some see results in as little as a few months with smaller sparse hairs.Combining with neograft about 3 months before would be a great way to help with graft takeThe best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery.best of luck!Dr Schwartz

Good question.Most patients should begin to notice results within 4-6 months of initiating treatment.  I recommend 4 treatments spaced every 4-6 weeks and then a booster treatment every 6 months.

Matthew Richardson, MD · Answer

I tell patients that results may take 6 months to become evident. My typical protocol is 3 sessions spaced one month apart, followed by maintenance sessions every 6 months. Any treatment for hair loss is going to take a minimum of 6 months to really become evident as hair growth is slow.
All the best,

PRP has nothing to do with the results of a hair transplant.  If the surgery went well, it just takes time for the transplanted hairs to grow out.  If your doctor recommended PRP then follow up with your doctor.We have offered PRP after hair transplant surgery for over two years and didn't see its benefit (post transplant).

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

It takes at least 6 months (6 treatments) and I combine with progesterone to speed the process.  After that if you are seeing improvement, I cut the treatments down to every 6-8 weeks to maintain.  Best, Dr. Emer.
