2 weeks ago I started PRP for Alopecia Areata. I noticed a new spot of AA on my head. Would it be possible to get Kenalog injections too as they worked in the past for me?

Answer: PRP for alopecia areata PRP is not one of the main treatments for AA. You need to first establish a diagnosis with a health care professional who specializes in hair loss disorders. There are various medications for AA including steroids and oral medications. PRP has been studied for scarring and nonscarring alopecia and shown some promising results, but I recommend starting with proven regimens first.

Answer: PRP vs Kenalog for AA No, they can't be used together. Kenalog is generally far more effective. It's also more reliable, it's less expensive and it's been around far longer. PRP is not first line for localized alopecia areata.
