Very nice results. Would you mind sharing the cost?
I'm not the original poster but have had 3 treatments. I paid $750 in Arizona. No A-Cell. The NP that did my treatment has done her husband and after 3 or 4 treatments he grew 50% of his hair back. I saw the before and after pics. Another dermatologist in town wants $1500 with A-Cell. I don't think it's necessary..
$750 per treatment or for all three?
$750 per treatment, newer protocol is fewer injections but deeper. Price is less as a result.
Which md/Np and what is the name of the office that you go to in Az.
So glad it worked for you. I'd love to give it a try. May I ask how much you are paying for each treatment? Also was A Cell mixed in with the plasma?
Do you have to shave the hair to receive prp treatment?
absolutely not. I'd never go for that.
Ive been losing hair slowly over the years, but now that I'm 51 it has really started to shed and becoming very thin. I an see such a noticeable difference even in the past few months. I see that this procedure has worked for you. How expensive are these treatments. And honestly how effective has it been.
Treatment has really worked for me, but it's not cheap. I have a lot of new hair growth and it's been growing for months. I will post some more photos after my 3rd procedure. The cost is $1500/treatment with Acell. I'll do my 3rd treatment and then do once a year maintenance.
I wish I could find a doctor who would do it for $750, or even the $1500 per treatment. The only one I have found where I live wants $5500 for 2 treatments 3 months apart. =(
if you don't mind the travel, you could go to my surgeon.
Thank you manoodesai. I live in WA State, so the price would be back up there by the time I pay for air fare and hotel. =) Thanks for the answer!
no problem. Hope you find someone cheaper. It takes all of 10-15 minutes using your own blood.. shouldn't cost so much :-(
Hi there ! Loved the results !!! I live in New Hampshire and here the treatment is expensive !!
750 is reasonable !! Did you have to take time off from work after injections ?
Also can you share your surgeon name ? I won't mind to go to Arizona !!
Thank you !

For years I've tried it all. Started going to...
For years I've tried it all. Started going to Doctors when I was in my late 20's and have tried Rogaine, Vivascal and other herbal treatments. I finally decided to seek PRP when I saw it on Good Morning America. I've had two sets of treatments. First one at the end of June and the second one in August. I'm going to do my third and final one around November. The results are phenomenal. Not only do I see hair growth and yes, it's still coming in, but the condition of my hair has also improved. It's healthier and easier to style. I still use rogaine daily but stopped the Vivascal. The difference the PRP made is remarkable. I had diffused hair loss everywhere. While it hasn't filled in completely in my center part, I have had hair loss in that area since I was in my early 20's. The earlier you try the PRP the better. The sides and crown have really come in nicely. My goal was to get at least 5 years back on my hair and I've definitely hit that. Photos are labeled by date.

Have you posted your pictures? I would love to see your results. Thank you.
I do not see any photos:(
MR
Wow, congratulations! You look great. :)
Are you doing any aftercare?
I still use Rogaine. I've switched to the foam kind and I apply it once a day. I use a full cap rather than the half that's on the box. I'll be going for another round of PRP in November and I can't wait to see results.
MR
Makes sense. All the best for your November round! Can't wait to see the pictures. :)
Yes, I'm doing the Rogaine and I plan to go once a year for the PRP + acell shots
Thanks for sharing. I thought you had to do PRP every 6 months to maintain results?
My doctor said I can come back once a year to help maintain results. In some cases he would suggest 6 months.
So up to $3000 every year for life?
Did you do straight PRP or PRP + acell? Thanks!
I did PRP with acell.

Your hair looks amazing! I actually saw Dr. Harris who is based in the DMV area as well and does PRP also. Now did you do PRP with Acell? Also you mentioned $1500; is that per session with the prp or for all three sessions together. I'm actually now going to make an appointment with Dr. Dahiya because of your pics, you've given me so much hope. Thanks for posting!!
