Before and after 3rd (final) treatment.

The third treatment took place August 15th. I’ve included before pics of my hair the day of. As I mentioned in my previous post any gains made with the second treatment was lost (see photos). This third treatment didn’t go as smoothly as the other two. My head wasn’t numb enough and the injections of the PRP hurt. Dr. Wise gives laughing gas during the procedure so that helped take the edge off of the pain, but ultimately the depth on the microneedling (not sure if that’s what it is called) device had to be reduced and certain areas of my head couldn’t be rolled at all bc of the pain. Dr. Wise was very apologetic about my pain and explained anymore lidocaine and my head would become very swollen. I am unsure if this affected my results at all, or the treatment just didn’t work. I am very disappointed and have a follow up scheduled to see where I am at. After viewing my before photos and my photos taken last night, my hair loss looks slightly worse. Photos from today will be attached. It’s been about 2 months since my last treatment of the series. If you opt for this procedure, I truly hope it works for you.

Update!

Hello all. Second treatment was received June 27, 2018. I’ve included pics from right before and pics after 1 month. I *thought* I saw improvement this time (around the hairline). I was excited because I saw no improvement after the first treatment, but my hair is shedding again and I believe any improvement has been lost. I have one more treatment this month and I’m trying to remain optimistic that this will help.

How many treaments were recommended and how far apart are the scheduled?

After researching PRP for hair loss on and off for 1.5 years, I decided it was time for me to give it a try. I have androgenic alopexia. And I tried all the noninvasive options into the past - minoxidil, vivascal, spironolactone, massage, biotin, iron infusions (my iron was low for a short while)...but the shedding continued. I had the most luck with minoxidil- but no matter how carefully I placed it on my head, my hairline dropped to warewolf lows on my forehead and my sideburns came in HEAVY like mutton chops. I stopped using it and my hair fell out quite terribly for 4-6 months. Anyway, I went to Dr. Wise for the PRP consult and procedure- he is a total doll by the way! Very funny and patient with questions and the interview process...The staff was professional and kind as well. My procedure was last Friday. I received a call today from the office staff asking me how I was doing 3 days later, which was nice. My scalp is still tender, but I’m otherwise ok. I washed my hair today and had the same amount of shedding as I did before, but I’m sure this will take time to have it’s effect. I have another appointment in 5 weeks, so I will update then with any progress ??

Hi, I am also thinking of pursuing this procedure with Dr. Wise. Would you be willing to speak with me through email? I would like to understand if you have noticed any hair growth till now? I have almost the same hair loss like yours, frontal scalp and sides. Your help will be greatly appreciated.

I'm rambling about myself- I'm sorry you're not happy with the results-- so far- I'm sure it's especially scary to loose more hair. I read a lot about skin care and I know that most products/procedures take time-a minimum of two months for skincare for example. It can often take months to take hold and work or as Dr Wise commented-6 months. I'm an impatient person so it would be a long wait for me. I imagine is scary and frustrating waiting. I wish you the best of luck. Thank you again for being so thoughtful and posting multiple times about your experience to help people like me. It was a huge help. Hang in there. Kind Regards, Christina
