Answer: How often are PRP injections needed for hear growth? Everyone responds differently to PRP. The good news is that there is about a 70% response rate.I find that a series of three treatmetns spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart provide optimal results. Most will require boost treamtents twice a year but every individual will vary. This can be judged by the "pull test" or simply seeing how much hair you see in your brush/comb or in the sink.The type of PRP used does make a difference. I think the PRP should be 4 to 6 X in strength - with a high concentration of the growth factors providing better results. In addition, the total amount of PRP used also matters. If you are treating an entire scalp, you will need a lot more PRP vs just the crown. Diluting out the same vial over the entire scalp will diminish the results vs using larger volumes of PRP.

Answer: How often must you get PRP done There is no right answer on how often you MUST get PRP done. In my practice, I recommend that patients get a series of 3 treatments spaced one month apart followed by maintenance treatments every 6 months. Some patients may opt to do more treatments than this, especially for maintenance purposes, but I do not typically recommend that patients get only 1 or 2 treatments, because they are unlikely to see results.
