I did PRP for a year and it was costly, the injections were painful, and there was zero change at all. It costs between $500-$700 plus per session every 4-6 months.

[@eeiko321]

Good to know.. but how far was your hair gone? As the video states that you gotta be in your early stages for it to be effective. However, I’m the video also states that people venture into this treatment as they like natural methods instead of medication (which has side effects) So in saying that…. if you’re naturally genetically going to go bald… the PRP won’t stop or inhibit DHT affecting your hair follicles. (So if this works as a stimulant for growth, like minoxidil…. ) Then you’d have to still take finasteride to prevent DHT along with this PRP or PRF…..

[@stevewise1656]

@@eeiko321 Well, my hair had been thick and was only trying it to ensure I maintained or enhanced. Two other doctors later told me they'd seen no signs efficacy in PRP for their hair loss patients. These were top hair transplant docs in the US. They could've told me they spin the blood at a different rate etc., though they flat our said don't do it again and you're not missing out on anything.

[@SabaSaliba]

Totally agree didn’t work

[@luiso.9103]

worked for me and i was bald most of my life ! i did 3 rounds of Prp and used minoxidil 1-2 times a day

[@corncorner]

@@luiso.9103 hmm do you know if it was the minoxidil or the PRP that did it for you? Did you use minoxidil without getting the results you wanted then the PRP helped?

[@wajdF]

I've been watching your videos for a long time. Really helpful especially when a lot of misleading things confuse us, making us develop false hope. You guys are amazing

[@Tenex007]

For someone that is trying to regrow hair, and is taking minoxidil, finastride plus lazer therapy, will PRP be an effective complementary treatment that will work?

[@Lizeeeeee.e.e]

Mixing PRF into the prp is quite an interesting take id be interested to know id that works.

[@madjam2]

Thank you guys. Another very informative video.

[@Thrannn]

Question: Whats the best way to apply minoxidil? how am i supposed to apply it when i have long hair? i feel like it barely reaches the scalp. also how am i supposed to spread 1ml on my giant scalp area? its hard to cover the whole hair-loss area with just 1ml

[@eden5260]

Depends if you use foam or liquid The liquid Is by far easier to spread Use the extractor thing that goes directly on the scalp under the hair , and instead of squeezing the pump thing just tap the entire thing on your head and move around , It will realise much smaller drops. They also said in a previous video that some people may need 1.5 or 2 mL depending on the area you are using it on, By tapping it is easier to cover the entire head with 1ml but if you feel you need more just do it with cautious . I once used too much and I became sick for a while. Lastly many people say you should wise your fingers to massage it into the scalp but I am not sure it isn't easy with long hair to do that.

[@kheenesalas22]

is finasteride 1mg a week good? because i'm experiencing hormonal acne like worst for 1mg a day 😢

[@eden5260]

Don't take my word but if I remember correctly it is said that dutastride has a working effect of 5 days. Finasteride only works for 24/5 hours Once a week will probably be worthless

[@maorizio1]

1mg a week can work only if you take it frequently, so take 0.25mg 4 times a week, eventually it will build up in the tissues

[@zulfiqar7967]

Im using redensyl for 2 months.. i bought a minoxidil and started to apply in night and redesyl at morning. Within 2 days of application i found my hairs are getting falling.. is that any problem? Or stay with process?

[@mr.ntinoskostas674]

It is absolutely normal during the first month.

[@zulfiqar7967]

@@mr.ntinoskostas674 i have already used minoxidil before a year.. is minoxidil combined with redensyl will give result? Or should i use redensyl itself?

[@eden5260]

Minoxidil makes your hair shed in the first few weeks or more That's unpleasant at all but very normal

[@abhishekroy7100]

Please do a video on oral minoxidil

[@hurraiazahid7054]

Welcome ❤ Love to Watch n Learn from both of U

[@chrischineseman1454]

Can you do a video on verteporfin and how it will impact hair transplants going forward?

[@yashverma4514]

Can I use topical minoxidil in morning and then rosemary oil at night? I mean is it harmful to use both at same time?

[@eden5260]

I tried it for a while not on a daily basis because I don't believe shampooing hair every day is healthy my main concern was that the oil will clog the pores which are vital for minoxidil to work. So if you don't use micro needling before minoxidil I would assume it can do more harm than good.

[@carlosfranx9702]

can you talk about side effects of dutasteride please and the dose you recommend please

[@savanaviolenta]

The healthier one lives, the richer his blood is with nutrients and hence more effective is the PRP.

[@johnchamy4918]

hi guys i have a question about hair removal spray is it bad for your skin and private parts there isn't any solid answer online and i've been watching your channel and all your info seems honest i hope you can answer this question

[@SabaSaliba]

Huge costs vs Zero results. It didn’t work for me. If it worked for everyone the whole world would know. Stick to oral fin/minox and transplant.

[@eden5260]

I do wonder about stem cells Basically pro with stem cells

[@mokar0873]

I believe PRF is much better then PRP

[@eden5260]

Is your belief based on anything?

[@mokar0873]

​@@eden5260Yes W science and experience. My respects

[@ahmdhydr6986]

Is bleach test for minoxidil reliable ? If it turns yellow = original , If stayed clear color = fake

[@eden5260]

What is original minoxidil?

[@eroloden5611]

Is 0,5 mg Dutasteride daily to much? Or should I take it 3 a 4 times a week. Greetings from Belgium

[@eeiko321]

I don’t believe they answer your questions here

[@santysingh4179]

Twice a week would be optimal . Or 10 per month . If u experienced lot of shedding u can do 1 per day . Then slow down to 2-3 per week . For long term 1-2 a week is optimal once u get stable .. Duta +prp works wonder Duta +3-4 prp in 5 month Then once per 6 month .

[@qll8840]

Hi doctors 😊where are you guys located ?

[@Gidrah]

Have you looked into Bhringraj Oil? As someone who can't tolerate minoxidil even at a 1% concentration I was looking for an alternative and found an interesting study they used on mice where Bhringraj oil showed much more growth over a 14 day period. Would be interested in your take on this and what the best application practice would be.

[@rlg6728]

Have you by any chance started using the oil? Did you see any results?

[@swetachowdary]

Use rosemary oil

[@truongquangduy6090]

I have a question .. if I have completely normal hair. Should I use Minoxidil Doctor? I want my hair to grow faster and longer so I use it....

@@truongquangduy6090 either return it Or gave it someone because it is of no use And for hair growth change your lifestyle like yoga walking and good eating

That's something I would never do. Try something natural like castor oil, rosemary oil mixed with carrier oil etc..
