Regenlab PRP for hair loss; is it the best or is there any better alternatives?

Question

The kit of regenlab prp (8ml prp) is the best or ther better than that

Jeff Rapaport, MD · Answer

The Regen Lab kit concentrates platelets to 1.6x. Most clinicians prefer 4 to 5x.   Magellan can go to 8x. No formal  comparison studies exist on ideal concentration. The Magellan system leaves a high number of red blood cells. This may cause increased inflammation which some clinicians believe is not helpful. I prefer the Eclipse system which can deliver 4 to 5x with minimal red cells from a 22ml tube and is FDA approved.

Thank you for your question . I truly believe that Regenlab or Eclipse or DrPRP etc  can concentrate the same amount of platelets from 10 ml of blood . No difference at all . As was mentioned before , the most platelets can be extracted and concentrated  from 60 ml of blood using MAGELLAN® Autologous Platelet Separator System.

PRP kit such asregen eclipse only concentrate the platelets to about 1.6 times that of normal plasma.  That's how they get so much "prp" from 10ml of blood.    I prefer kits such as harvest or encyte that concentrate 60ml of blood into 6 to 8ml of prp, this is true prp.   Regen will try to confuse you by talking about the percent of platelets captured, not the actual platelet concentration, or percent of the prp that is platelets.   There is no way you can get more platelets from 10ml of blood vs 60ml. It's amazing a lot of doctors fall for this trick.

There are multiple kits that are effective for PRP treatment. I would discuss the kits with your hair loss professional.
