Last June I had to go through chemotherapy to treat an illness; after treatment my hair didn’t grow back properly. So I sought professional help with a hair clinic in my city. I’ve had two prp sessions spaced 3 months apart (March+June) plus vitruvian hair supplements. I have another session early next month. I feel my hair is getting worse and I haven’t seen any impact of prp therapy. The first picture was my hair November 2017 and the rest is August 2018. What do you think?

Thank you for your question.
I would start out with a consultation with a doctor that understands hair loss. It's very important to make sure we understand the degree of your hair loss and causes etc... Once we identify what is going on, we can make recommendations on the appropriate treatment...
I assume you are speaking about androgenetic alopecia in this question. If so, anti-androgens, low level laser and hair transplants are options. Scalp micropigmentation and hair systems are cosmetic options.
PRP is ALWAYS adjunctive therapy for hair loss. Medical treatments form the basis . PRP should be done 6-8 weeks apart, 3-4 sessions for year one, the 2 times a year to maintain. Remember its always medical over PRP. Davin Lim
