In person you can honestly see big difference. If I thought wasn't working or was waste of money I would definitely say so.

I think it takes 3-4 months to objectively measure a difference. So far so good!

looks like the snake oil industry is still going strong well into the 21 century. much better bitter and realistic than jolly and delusional. how can you celebrate this when its obvious that all he paid for was hopes and dreams and a longer combover??
how difficult can it be to understand that the only half decent approach we have is: Minoxidil + Fin/Dut + HT ???

We cant judge prp, this is a lost case his hair is gone forever, no treatment can regrow his hair, only option is ht for decent results.

Looks like there is modest growth, however it is hard to tell. The first pic shows the whole forehead, while on the second pic, the head is tilted down (less forehead) so it is difficult to evaluate objectively.

hi larry :)
while i'm happy you're happy with your results, i don't think your assessment is 100% objective. I'm no expert, but i'm your fellow mpb sufferer, and as such i want to offer you my advice.
in short, prp is faaar from proven and extremely expensive for what it does.
in your pics you look like a mature gentleman and that is a huge advantage. after ~35 hairloss is expected and the older you get, even a little hair can make a big cosmetic difference.
your donor area looks unaffected, so you could talk to a REPUTABLE, i repeat, REPUTABLE surgeon about the possibility of an HT if you want real results.
im certain a couple thousand grafts distributed correctly would make you look more than decent.
there are lots of wise and honest users here willing to help, and i am too.
all the best, sir.

The small improvement could be from the laser treatments alone........and NOT the PRP. But thanks so much for sharing and all the best.

Just left from getting second treatment
larry832October 25, 2017
Today he used a numbing shot injected above my eyes. I would say first treatment pain level was 6-7 and today was a 1-3 so pretty painless. I think I'm already getting great results. Anyone serious about getting this procedure call Gina or Rachel at DR Cho's office and you will be very pleased with them in every way.

I can tell from your photos that your hair looks so much better. Did you wait 3 months in between 1st and 2nd treatment? How often will you go for treatments?
November 3, 2017
Oh, I see it looks like 2 months for the 2nd treatment. How soon after the 1st treatment did you notice any change?? I realize hair changes take a LONG time, and they say not to expect anything for 6-12 months. But, just wondering if personally you felt/saw a change and how soon that was after your 1st treatment.
November 4, 2017
They said not to expect anything until 3 months but I swear after 2 weeks I noticed a difference. After 3-4 weeks people started saying my hair looked darker. I go every 4-5 weeks so one treatment left but I'm probably going to get 2-3 more treatments afterwards.
I agree with your post he should get a HT then maybe use prp to improve result, wrong place to impress with such minor results when everyday we are watching big improvements from ht
