Question

I have prp twice in 2 weeks interval i notice so much villus hair although i have androgenic alopecia will this be aterminal hair? What recommended plan of therapy in this case?

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

The research performed and the anecdotal evidence would suggest that thickness of hair and density can improve with PRP injections.  The number of sessions as well as the quality of PRP obtained will vary considerably physician to physician.

Jeff Rapaport, MD · Answer

In my opinion, you probably do not have new vellus hair. Hairs that grow from PRP are usually terminal hairs and take more time. It is possible that some of your existing vellus hairs shafts are widenining and are more visible. PRP hair growth should be assessed on a 9 to 12 month basis. Find a PRP expert. Ask to see photos.PRPHAIRMD.COM
