Asked By:Good25671 in Montreal, QC

I'd like a second opinion as I am not able to reach the nurse who performed my procedure. I had PRP 3 weeks ago, since10 days after I'm loosing hundreds of hair in the injections area (not donor area) every day (thick hairs) it's increasing every day, I lost about half the density on the top. They did thousands of injections, 31g needle at 10mm depth. Did they damage definitively my hair bulbs? I had a HT 5000 grafts 9 months ago and I am loosing native and transplanted terminal thick hairs as well.
