Jeff Rapaport, MD · Answer

PRP works well with hair transplantation. We usually recommend a treatment1 month before, 1 after  and every four to six months afterwards. I believe that a treatment twice a month will not hurt you, however there is little additional benefit. Adding finasteride would be a valuable addition.PRPHAIRMD.COM

PRP injections in conjunction with hair transplant is very beneficial.It is not only beneficial to the transplanted hair but also to the hair that is existing. PRP reinforces the hair follicles and improves density and thickness.

Thank you for your question. Yes, PRP treatments following FUE are beneficial. PRP will promote hair growth and vascular supply to the scalp. These actions will help to promote the growth of your transplanted follicles as well as the native follicles in the area. We treat all of our hair transplant patients with PRP at the time of their FUE surgery. Keep in mind that all PRP is not equal. You want to find a physician who uses a kit that concentrates the platelets in the plasma to a level of 6 to 8 times the concentration of platelets in whole blood.I hope this was helpful - Dr. Moore.

Patients who have a hair restoration combined with PRP treatment have experienced faster healing, less shedding and higher retention of transplanted grafts post procedure, and earlier regrowth of transplanted follicles. Having a PRP treatment along with your second FUE procedure will make a difference in the quality of your hair. The PRP will fill the thinning area of the scalp making your hair look more thick and dense.

Yes very good idea to do PRP after one month of surgery in FUE Procedure it will boost your scalp to grow newly transplanted roots well and doing 2 PRP in each month is harmless but in my experience it is useless as only 1 PRP in a month will work well after 2, 3 PRP procedure you have to delay the time period between each session it will equally.
