I'm 25 now and first noticed my hair thinning and receding around the temples a couple of years ago. I responded by taking propecia, though after hearing from several places that propecia doesn't usually help the hairline as much as the crown area I kept looking and found this new 'acell hair regeneration' treatment done by Dr. Prasad. After reading up about it I got really excited I went for a consult with Dr. Prasad, and interacting with him and his staff I never for a second felt like I was just being sold a procedure. In fact he actually told me at first that I may not need the procedure since my hair loss was (relatively) minor, it was only on my insistence that they agreed to do an injection just on my frontal hairline where the problem was.
I'm 6 months post-op now and the results of this have been awesome. The areas that were thinning in the front on the sides have thickened, which is clear looking at the microscope-pics before and after as well as just the naked eye. I honestly can't tell you how happy I am about this, along with the filled out hairline my hair is just thicker overall, allowing me to do more with it if I want without worrying and making haircuts way more enjoyable to boot.

Welcome to the community, your results are stunning. I have never heard of ACell Hair Regeneration so I am really glad that you shared your experience with us.

Hello, I'm interested in tis procedure. It's been a year and a half since you had the procedure. Are your results still the same?

Hi, I'm so sorry I somehow just saw your post! As it happens I just went for a check-in with Dr. Prasad about a week ago and yes the results have held up completely. We took a look under the microscope-camera thing they have and there wasn't any sign of the thinning coming back. At 19 months I can say my hair looks and feels as thick as its been since I was a teen!

If I receive this procedure will start seeing results around the 3 month mark?

I'd be surprised if you didn't see anything by then yes, though the results kept rolling in for me up to at least a year. Now at a year and a half my hair hasn't felt so thick since I was a teen.

Around what month did the results of the procedure become obivious
May 24, 2016
Believe it or not when I went back in 2 weeks after there was already a difference. I know there must be variation with different people so I'd say 3 months should be plenty of time to see results, with the full effect still coming at like 6 months

Wow awesome transformation!
