All I want to know is if I’m going to waste money trying PRP with stem cells micro needling in the scalp to promote hair growth. I’m so sick of wasting money on snake oil’s. 55-year-old woman with thinning hair. I’ve been using the laser helmet, rogaine for a while now with ok results.. I have zero Health issues. . I’m on estrogen and prog for menopausal symptoms. No other meds. I was told that I would just need one of these treatments for $3500. Please tell me the truth!!
