If I do 3 PRP sessions one month apart, and then continue to do 1-2 touch up procedures annually (assuming I respond decently to it), does this have the potential to delay/halt my hairloss indefinitely and potentially for the rest of my life? Or will the impact of DHT eventually overpower the positive effects of PRP?
