Is A cell + PRP a good option to treat diffuse thinning?

Question

My question is two fold: 1) I am contemplating non-surgical options for diffuse thinning. Already on finasteride, minoxidil and a 2% ketoconozale shampoo. Have been suffering from it since 2012 and wondering if a cell + prp would be a worthwhile option as a standalone treatment? Alternatively, should I choose to go for a hair transplant then would prp help minimize the shock loss?

Without photos and further information(e.g. your age) it is difficult to fully answer your question.However,with diffuse thinning PRP might be a good option to consider before undergoing HT.I would recommend a consultation with an experienced Hair Restoration surgeon to determine the treatment plan most appropriate for you.

In my opinion, the combination of PRP and finasteride produces exceptional results in people who are losing their hair and have hair follicles that have been dormant for less than three years. I would suggest trying a course of PRP for one year before undertaking hair transplantation. Find a PRP expert.PRPHAIRMD.COM

PRP is an excellent adjunct for hair loss a long with Minoxidil. I would recommend an evaluation by a PRP provider.

PRP is a restorative regenerative treatment that improves the tissue it is injected into.  In the hair restoration field, it shows great improvement in healing post procedure and can also be used annually (depending on the method used) to reverse the aging process of follicles.

I would try PRP as a standalone treatment without Acell for now.  You should see good results within 6 months.  I recommend 2 treatments 2 months apart.  Good luck!
