How long do results of Selphyl PRFM injections for hair loss last on average?

Question

I am a 30 y/o female with stage 1 androgenic alopecia. I am considering having 3 rounds of Selphyl PRFM injections. Can you advise on how long results may last? I am seeing the medical director of Selphyl for this treatment who advised it can last 1-4 years. Any honest disclosures/medical opinions would be great. Thanks!

In my opinion, the answer to your question regarding longevity is unknown. There are no studies to document how long Selphyl will continue to affect the hair or if it improves upon standard PRP. Anecdotal Reports say one year or longer. In my experience, PRP alone only as lasts six months. For this reason it needs to be injected 2 times per year. It is my opinion that Selphyl has the potential to increase allergic reactions vs standard PRP INJECTION. Allergic reactions would lead to shock loss. With standard PRP, shock loss is rare. PRP can increase hair thickness and decrease hair loss. Regrowth is variable. Hope this helps. Good luck.

There is no evidence that Selphyl PRFM injections just like PRP produces any real value. I am waiting to see real good clinical science which has not yet been produced
