I just passed my 3rd month from my first and only PRP session. I’m certain that the procedure didn’t include ACells. I was told to do 3 in total each month, but I wanted to make sure I get some sort of results before paying a lot more money. Is 3 months still too soon?

Answer: No PRP results after 3 months? I’m 23, on finasteride. PRP of the hair takes time to show results. You need at least 3 preferably 4 treatments to see results. You need to be patient. There are differing opinions about using acell, some day it helps some say it causes an inflammatory response and that it doesn’t help. I have stopped using acell since I haven’t seen any improvement with it and a lot of improvement without it. Also keep in mind the centrifuge used to separate the platelets matters a lot. Some companies use FDA approved centrifuges made just for the purpose of separating PRP, some companies use devices that are not approved by the FDA and are modified to handle PRP separation. The use of one with the right technique will yield excellent results , the use of the latter with poor technique is like giving your money away.

Answer: No PRP results after 3 months I presume you are a male. Male pattern baldness is harder to treat than hair loss in females. A single treatment will usually not yield best results because it is best to have cumulative effects of at least 3 or 4 treatments over several months or a year. The jury is still out on the benefit of Acell. I only use it by special request because I am not convinced that the added expense to the patient is worthwhile. We recommend minoxidil and a vitamin and supplement regimen plus microneedling for best results.
