Had a transplant 3600 grafts towards the front and mid section but not the crown. Still have a good amount of existing thin hair on my scalp and crown shown in the photo before. Second photo is 2 weeks post op. My goal is to keep those thinning hairs or to thicken them. Is PRP a good option, Is it actually effective? It's pretty expensive for me so I want to make the right decision. How many PRP treatments at first and how many yearly? Finasteride and minoxidil gave bad side effects for me. Thx
Answer: Yes prp can work Prp for hair loss is a viable option and used clinically after hair transplants to maintain the new hair transplant especially if you can't do minoxdil and finasteride. There is many clinical trials that prp increases hair density and growth up to 40%. Patients do anywhere from 4-6 treatments a year and depending how strong your male genetic hair loss is you may need to maintenance every 9 month to a year. There are some fda cleared companies out there who use centrifuges to make the prp with sterilized test tubes so make sure you ask if device is fda cleared

Answer: PRP for Hair Restoration Thanks for your question. PRP after a surgical hair transplant or even during a transplant procedure is becoming one of the most well studied nonsurgical hair-loss treatment. It which involves extracting the platelets from your own blood which are then injected into areas of your scalp, to restore thinning hair. The research done so far shows that PRP can be an effective treatment for most types of non-scarring hair loss conditions like TE, alopecia androgenetica and alopecia areata. While we do not know the exact mechanism of action, but we believe that the growth factors released from the activated platelets increase the blood supply to the hair follicles and in turn, increases the follicular viability and density by lengthening the time line of the hair growth phase or anagen.
