PRP or Minoxidil Cannot Stop Hair Loss After a Hair Transplant, and Better Hair Loss Mangement

[@rajkavinkumar]

Hey Dr. Prasad, just wanted to say I love your professional attitude towards all the questions and how your videos bridge trust between seemingly frustrating queries viewers have. I actually enjoy watching your videos! Keep up the good work! From sg.

Hi Doctor After 20 days of hair transplant, Which shampoo and vitamin can I use use any recommendation sir? Please reply Thanks

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi AA simba, While the type of shampoo doesn't matter as much 20 days after a transplant, and genetic pattern hair loss is not due to nutrition, treatment is still after a transplant to treat progressive hair thinning. You can refer to this video about it - kzbin.info/www/bejne/qHrPemhre5lqbtk

[@mehronmoin]

Dr. Prasad , thank you very much for taking time answering question ,does PRP really grows hair or just stop hair loss, heard so many different things , thanks

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi MARK MOIEN, I don’t administer PRP alone for hair loss because it has a limited effect on hair, usually just short-term hair growth. Also, the number of sessions needed does vary, and the longevity of results is unpredictable. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration is a PRP combination treatment where PRP is the activator of the main ingredient extracellular matrix by ACell. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration is a one-time treatment for most patients, and can last up to 5 years and beyond, depending on the aggressiveness of the hair loss pattern. You don't need repeat injections periodically, and many older TrichoStem™Hair Regeneration patients don’t use maintenance drugs like finasteride, but finasteride is a must for our younger male patients wion is not a DHT-blocker. PRP injections for hair loss are needed indefinitely. Some TrichoStemith very early and aggressive hair loss due to high DHT-sensitivity as TrichoStem™ Hair Regenerat™ Hair Regeneration patients with advanced hair loss get a second treatment 15-24 months after the first which we call the booster, but this is already included in the cost of the treatment plan, so you don’t pay extra for it. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration patients can stop using minoxidil completely, or be weaned off it to prevent a sudden hair shed. You can refer to these videos about the differences between TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration from PRP alone: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIukeJR3qNiYrbs kzbin.info/www/bejne/roSwhZdvpruqhNE

Hi@@mehronmoin, While there are other medical practices offering ACell+PRP, they are not the same as TrichoStem Hair Regeneration.

[@kalelissuperman]

Hi DR; I am 44, and i have been considering to do hair transplants, but 2 clinics said am not a candidate for hair transplant, but rather treatment, they recommended prp, at least 3 sessions in a year, but now that i am watching your video, if i understood right, you said prp is not enough but rather in concretion with soothing else. That is what i am not clear what is the method that you are using. I know you were asked how much it cost and you answered half what it cost a transplant in the U.S but i am not familiar with prices over there but rather with prizes in Turkey. I appreciate your insight.

Thanks, greenapplejuice23! You may be interested in the most recent video with new patients being featured, and showing how the treatment can still thicken thinning hair in a man who was on finasteride 15 years prior to treatment - kzbin.info/www/bejne/aorSqIOEh9ipbKs

[@shameerahmazwin0112]

Hi Doc, how bout biotin . Is it effective and safe to take for hair growth . Please advise

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Shameerah Mazwin, Biotin is vitamin B7, which does help with normal hair growth, and health, but it doesn't treat the genetic causes of pattern hair loss that causes hair thinning. I hope this clarifies things for you.

[@MrTruthislight]

My question with finesteride post your proceedure was concerning if it extends or helps extend life/quality of hair restoration gains as maintenance long term before you need a booster. I understand it's unneccesary as an adjunct but as a complement or strategy say for someone with aggressive loss. Thanks

[@tapashmondal4601]

Hi sir I used minoxidil and good results.. lifetime use???and same effect???

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi TAPASH MONDAL, The effects of minoxidil will likely wane with time, so I suggest you look into more sustainable treatments for the long-term like finasteride and the TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment featured in the video. You can refer to these videos about why minoxidil usually does lose effect with time: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qaebY4uJpbaZpKs kzbin.info/www/bejne/imbMgZd5m79lhMk

[@allegrostore6779]

Hello, Dr. unfortunately i can't go to America to get your treatment system, I'm 26 years old and a norwood 2 baldness plus thinning on the front area, if i take Finasteride + prp sessions (3 sessions respectively on 3 months) then 1 session every 3 months, will it be fine to protect my hair and thicken it ?

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi @allegrostore6779, Finasteride for someone your age with early onset of male pattern hair loss would need to be taken continually. Treatments for PRP alone require constant treatments sessions, not just 3 in the first year. Seemingly endless PRP treatments, often with results that are barely noticeable, and not sustainable long-term is why we have patients coming from all over the world for our treatment. You can refer to these videos on the differences of TrichoStem Hair Regeneration from PRP alone, and how our treatment can improve hair growth and scalp coverage in men on finasteride for years: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIukeJR3qNiYrbs kzbin.info/www/bejne/aorSqIOEh9ipbKs

[@arasjimal1943]

Dear doctor, I had a hairtransplant 3 months ago. Yesterday i had my first prp treatment. I told the doctor the i use minoxidil twice a day in the 3 months. After the prp treatment she said that i can stop using minoxidil because i had some side effects. I still have my doubts about quitting minoxidil. I still use dutasteride every day. What is your advice should i quit minoxidil or not?

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Aras Jimal, Dutasteride is more beneficial than minoxidil as it can slow down and stabilize hair thinning, and it can be used long-term more predictably. Minoxidil won't thicken your hair, or stop hair loss, but it appears to delay the hair shedding cycle, and extends the hair growth cycle so you appear to have more hair on your head. You will have to use it daily to sustain these effects, but these effects can also decrease with time even if you use it daily. Since minoxidil delays the hair shedding cycle, and prolongs the hair growth cycle, if you stop using it, you will likely have a significant hair shed. I hope this clarifies things for you.

[@charangju]

Hi Amiya Sir, Please tell me cost of Hair Regeneration Treatment ?

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi charan singh, The cost of the Hair Regeneration treatment varies with the extent of treatment needed, but at its full extent it costs about half of a single FUT hair transplant session, or about a third of a FUE hair transplant session performed in the US. You can contact us through www.nyhairloss.com, www.prasadcosmeticsurgery.com, or www.trichostem.com by filling out a contact form, and we’ll get back to regarding price range.

hi doctor thank you so much for ur knowledge. I have lost some hair from front and centre but its not that bad. iS THERE any place in mumbai where this hair regeneration is avail. Hair transplant is the last resort for me. plz do let me know..

[@MusicByJC]

On the video, the Dr. said that Minoxidil does not stop hair loss. I used Minoxidil for 15 years on a regular basis and it sure seemed to prevent hair loss to me. Nobody would comment that my hair was thinning or that I was losing my hair. For some stupid reason, I got lazy and stopped using and my hair has thinned quite a bit and I started getting comments about losing my hair or my hair thinning. When I first started using Minoxidil, I could tell within 6 months that my hair was much fuller and I saw "new" hair grow in areas that were recessed or thinning. I always thought that I was a very good responder so results may vary.

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi MusicByJC, Good to hear that minoxidil worked on you for 15 years, as for most people the effects wane long before then. Minoxidil appears to work by delaying the hair shedding cycle, and extending the growth cycle so you have more hair on your head at a given time. It sounds like that's the benefit you got. However, if you stop using it, you can shed more than usual, which also sounds like what happened to you. I hope this helps.

[@MusicByJC]

@@AmiyaPrasadMDI had a different protocol. I only used once in the evening but I would put up to 10 ml per application, making sure that my whole upper scalp was covered well. I would also cut back to 5 days per week after I used every day for a couple of week and would even reduce usage a little more once I started seeing results. The first sign that things were working would be shedding of hair that would last a week or so from what I remember. The first time that this happened it worried me but later I realized that the shedding was caused by dormant hairs being discarded causing more hair to enter the growth stage. Of course existing hairs would get thicker and stronger and I could easily tell that this was occurring. I don't really thing that my hair is worse off than if I hadn't every used minoxidil. Given how my hair looked when I was 30 and started using Minoxidil, I actually think that my hair would be worse if I didn't use minoxidil. Of course I have no way of knowing. I haven't used Minoxidil for about 8 years but I am thinking of giving it a try for 6 months or so to see what kind of results I get. Just thickening existing hair would improve appearance.

[@ND001X]

Is it true that you can get off of Propecia and Rogaine, after getting Hair Regeneration from Dr. Prasad? I fear that stopping either, mainly Rogaine, will cause a bad shed, where hair that's lost from not taking it, won't grow back.

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi John Smith, Yes, you can stop using finasteride and minoxidil after the Hair Regeneration treatment. Minoxidil doesn't thicken hair (neither does finasteride) but it does delay the hair shedding cycle, and prolongs the growth cycle, so you may get some excess shedding after you stop using it. However, the Hair Regeneration treatment enables those shedding hairs to grow back thicker. Usually, my patients do stop using finasteride and minoxidil once they notice the effects of Hair Regeneration working better than their previous medical therapies, which is about a month or so. I hope this clarifies things for you.

Hi Tushar Mahajan, We don't currently offer the treatment in India, but we do have many Indian patients coming to the US for treatment. Since it is a non-surgical treatment with little to no recovery time, and in many cases no additional treatment, you don't need an extended stay in the US. Many patients actually get back on the plane home the same day as treatment, but I don't recommend this for everyone as it is dependent on general health condition and age.

Hi Aquarius H, Finasteride is generally not prescribed to women. If you don't have active hair thinning, and your transplant was only to lower your hairline, treatment is not needed for your native hair.

Hello Doctor, I have been suffering from Polycystic ovarian disease for last 5 years.& doctors told that I am experiencing female pattern hair loss. when I went to the gynaecologist,she suggestes me to take OCP only for 3 months for irregular menstruation,& my cycle became regular as long as I took OCP.But hair loss continued. then I went to a dermatologist who told me to take dutasteride,giane-35, spironolactone & to use topical minoxidil. but an endocrinologist suggested not to take dutasteride for its side effects, told me to start Metformin 500 mg BD & OCP regularly & to use minoxidil as before. I have taken one cycle of PRP recently. should I use Dutasteride with Metformin?or should continue my treatment?

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Arpita Das, Sorry to hear about your problem. Without a physical exam and no further details about your issues, it does make sense to continue Metformin for your polycystic ovarian syndrome, but ask your doctor why they prescribed finasteride as it is a medication for male pattern hair loss and for male prostrate issues.

Hi Seth !, Sorry to hear abut your problem. At 20-years-old with that aggressive a hair loss pattern, you are most likely highly DHT sensitive. You do need a DHT-blocker like finasteride to slow your hair thinning.

Hi webspins, The Hair Regeneration treatment is for viable hair follicles such as thinning hair and dormant follicles, but it can't bring back dead hair follicles.

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi vivek anand, Sorry to hear about your problem. For someone your age, I would likely prescribe a treatment plan of an oral DHT-blocker and the Hair Regeneration treatment featured in the video. It's hard to get away from an oral medication as DHT is present in the bloodstream, so a systemic pill is needed. The Hair Regeneration treatment can thicken thinning hair, and stimulate growth from dormant hair follicles, but it cannot block DHT-formation. Hair Regeneration is an injection treatment that most patients need only one treatment session that can last 3-5 years. However, patients with advanced hair loss get a second treatment done 15-24 months after the first to thicken fine hair growth stimulated by the first treatment. You can see results in this video you are commenting on, but you can also see more in these videos: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmHXlZeAqZuCg6c kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKPQhGWnpKmbj7s kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJ6olGmYaZmSm7M

Hi amal krishnan, We don't currently offer the treatment in India, but we do have many Indian patients coming to the US for treatment. Not all PRP and ACell treatments are the same, even if they sound like they used the same ingredients. Extracellular matrix by ACell is a difficult material to work with, especially for hair loss treatment.You have to look at how many treatments are needed, if boosters or additional treatments are needed, how long the treatment is effective for, and most importantly, you need to see pictures from doctor showing the actual results of their treatment. Since it is a non-surgical treatment with little to no recovery time, and in many cases no additional treatment, you don't need an extended stay in the US. Many patients actually get back on the plane home the same day as treatment, but I don't recommend this for everyone as it is dependent on general health condition and age.

Hi,Dr Prasad I am 40 years old and my hair started to fall way back in 2003 after having a depression and I also have an epileptic seizures since 1996.Can these 2 things cause baldness

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Lalremtluanga Ralte, Sorry to hear about your problems. While stress can cause temporary shedding known as telogen effluvium, the hair does grow back. Epileptic seizures or epilepsy are not associated with hair loss. You may simply be having pattern hair loss at the same time as other health concerns. I hope this clarifies things for you.

[@riyazkhan864]

Sir, Will this treatment grow new hair? I'm 23 and my hair line is receding from forehead. Should i go for this or FUT?

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Riyaz Khan, The Hair Regeneration treatment can only work on viable hair follicles, so if your hair is thinning, or if you have dormant hair follicles, it can save and thicken that hair. If the hair follicles are dead, then there is nothing left to save. At your age, hair transplants are not advised because hair can't be transplanted as fast as you are losing it, and expected hair density in the 20s cannot be achieved by hair transplants. If you try to keep up with hair loss at this age via transplant, you will have no donor hair left by the time you are 30, and you will still continue to lose hair. I hope this clarifies things for you.

[@Manoj-gr7kn]

Hello Doctor, What is difference between PRP and Trichostem ?

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Manoj, I don’t administer PRP alone for hair loss because it has a limited effect on hair, usually just short-term hair growth. Also, the number of sessions needed does vary, and the longevity of results is unpredictable. TrichoStem Hair Regeneration is a PRP combination treatment where PRP is the activator of the main ingredient extracellular matrix by ACell. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration is a one-time treatment for most patients, and can last up to 5 years and beyond, depending on the aggressiveness of the hair loss pattern. You don't need repeat injections periodically, and many older TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration patients don’t use maintenance drugs like finasteride, but finasteride is a must for our younger male patients with very early and aggressive hair loss due to high DHT-sensitivity as TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration™ is not a DHT-blocker. PRP injections for hair loss are needed indefinitely. Some TrichoStem Hair Regeneration patients with advanced hair loss get a second treatment 15-24 months after the first which we call the booster, but this is already included in the cost of the treatment plan, so you don’t pay extra for it. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration patients can stop using minoxidil completely, or be weaned off it to prevent a sudden hair shed. You can refer to these videos about the differences between TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration from PRP alone: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIukeJR3qNiYrbs kzbin.info/www/bejne/roSwhZdvpruqhNE

[@germanmontero8443]

Minoxidil will MAYBE increase hair growth. But to combat hair loss, you need ANTIANDROGENS, such as Finasteride or Dutasteride to inhibit DHT production and stop hair thinning/loss. I take 1.5mg Finasteride every morning (most effective to take it in the morning) and after 2-3 months, results really started to show nicely. There was a lot of shedding the first couple of months so that was really off-putting, but it decreased over time. So far, I haven't suffered from any side effect from the finasteride. In fact, my libido has probably more than doubled. I suspect since that one's body isn't converting testosterone into DHT, there's just a surplus of testosterone in one's blood. I hate minoxidil, and the stickiness it leaves in your hair and therefore avoid it. As long as you keep on using an antiandrogen, you don't need minoxidil. I have read published scientific articles that state that hair growth increased most when combining minoxidil with finasteride, but I have personally experienced very nice growth with finasteride alone. Just be patient, and watch your hair get thicker from the finasteride alone. Interestingly enough, that same research paper stated that while hair growth and thickening was accomplished through finasteride alone, minoxidil by itself did not really accomplish anything...

[@Aiwautography]

Which is best minoxidil or finesteroid is it help full on bald

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi@@Aiwautography, If you are smooth bald with hair not growing in a particular area for 5 years or more, then you hair follicles are already dead, and a transplant is your only option. Treatments like finasteride to slow hair thinning; minoxidil to extend the hair growth cycle and delay shedding; and Hair Regeneration to thicken thinning hair can only be applied if you still have viable hair follicles. I hope this clarifies things for you.

[@anirudhmishraa]

so if someone from india wants to get this done, does he need to visit you or is it practiced by other professional cosmetic and reconstructive surgeons . And how much does it cost.

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi techguy, There are other practices offering extracellular matrix by ACell combined with PRP for hair loss, but Hair Regeneration is unique as it is a one-time treatment in the vast majority of cases, and the effects of thicker hair growth has lasted over 5 years now. Similar treatments require more treatment sessions, and do not last as long. We do have patients coming every day from around the world to the US for the Hair Regeneration treatment. Since it is a non-surgical treatment with little to no recovery time, and in most cases no additional treatment, you don't need an extended stay in the US. Many patients actually get back on the plane home the same day as treatment, but I don't recommend this for everyone as it is dependent on general health condition and age. The cost of the Hair Regeneration treatment varies with the extent of treatment needed, but at its full extent it costs about half of a single FUT hair transplant session, or about a third of a FUE hair transplant session performed in the US. I hope this clarifies things for you.

Hi roger seepersad, Wearing hats all day long will not cause your hair to thin. The most common cause of hair thinning is genetics, or more specifically genetic pattern hair loss. However, if this is the case, then the Hair Regeneration treatment can help you. The cost of the Hair Regeneration treatment varies with the extent of treatment needed, but at its full extent it costs about half of a single FUT hair transplant session, or about a third of a FUE hair transplant session performed in the US.

Hi@@mdridwan3848, There are many physicians confused about combining PRP+ACell treatment for hair loss, but they are hoping for the best with their formulations. Our treatments are based on an algorithm I spent many years developing, which factors age of onset of hair loss, current age, gender, degree of hair loss, and other medications used.

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi mohit Arora, You do have a wide gene pool for hair loss, extending to other relatives. I don’t administer PRP alone for hair loss because it has a limited effect on hair, usually just short-term hair growth. Hair Regeneration is a PRP combination treatment where PRP is the activator of the main ingredient extracellular matrix by ACell. Hair Regeneration is a one-time treatment that lasts at least 3-5 years. You don't need repeat injections periodically, or maintenance drugs with Hair Regeneration. PRP injections for hair loss may be needed for life. Hair Regeneration has close to a 100% success rate for male pattern baldness, but PRP alone is not as predictable. PRP alone will be commitment in time and money. If you want something with a higher success rate, longer-lasting, and doesn't need maintenance, consider the Hair Regeneration treatment. You will have to travel for it, but it's only a one-time event rather than endless sessions of PRP. I hope the information helps you.

Hello doctor !!! i am 24 years old. i am experienceing extreme level of hair fall for the last 4 years and the frontal part of my head is going completely bald day by day. For this I lose my confidence everywhere and always depressed. I saw your lot of videos on you tube about hair regeneration. I wish I could do that but this is quite impossible for me because I have no enough money to do hair regeneration now. If I want to do hair regeneration, it will take 4 or 5 years for me but I think within 4 or 5 years I will be completely bald. In this circumstances, sir do you please suggest me any medicine such as biotin, minoxidil, finasteride that could help to stop hair fall.

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Rashed Monjur Chowdhury, Sorry to hear about your problem. You should first see a doctor to diagnose if you have male pattern hair loss, or another cause of your hair loss. If it is confirmed you do have pattern loss, get a prescription for finasteride to slow your hair thinning. You will need to take finasteride daily at its full dose to slow hair thinning. Minoxidil can also delay the normal shedding of your hair. Keep in mind that hair shedding is normal, but hair loss occurs when shed hair grows back thinner with each growth cycle, until it eventually stops growing back. Finasteride won't stop thinning completely, but it will slow it down. Best of luck with your diagnosis and treatment.

[@rashedmonjurchowdhury5293]

Hello dr can 4 prp treatments once a month keep the results with dht blockers? Or what will happen? For female pattern hair loss

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Mango z, DHT is not a major factor in female pattern hair loss, and DHT blockers should not be taken by women. I don’t administer PRP alone for hair loss because it has a limited effect on hair, usually just short-term hair growth. Also, the number of sessions needed does vary, and the longevity of results is unpredictable.

Hi Easy Technology, Our TrichoStem Hair Regeneration patients stop or are weaned from minoxidil after our injection treatment, but it's not PRP alone. One month only on minoxidil shouldn't cause a lot of buildup of hairs that were delayed from shedding, so the shedding shouldn't be too much after stopping it. I hope this clarifies things for you.

Hi Jiten Patel, Sorry to hear about your problem. It is not possible to get your hair back with PRP alone.

Even with a treatment like Hair Regeneration, bringing back hair from smooth bald areas may not be possible as the hair follicles may already be dead. If the hair is thinning but still present, and if follicles are dormant but still present in smooth bald areas, then the hair can be saved and thickened. I hope this clarifies things for you.

Hi Biplab Datta, If you want to thicken your thinning hair, watch the video again and look closely at the Hair Regeneration treatment I describe, as it does thicken thinning hair, and stops hair loss. Minoxidil does not thicken hair - it lets thin hair stay on the head longer by delaying the shedding cycle, and extending the growth cycle, but hair thickness is not changed.

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi rajib sarker, If Dutasteride is 0.5mg finasteride for prostate treatment, but to slow thinning hair, finasteride should be 1mg taken daily. Minoxidil delays shedding of hair, and extends the growth cycle, so it works differently from finasteride. You will need to take finasteride longer than 6 months if you want to slow your hair thinning for the long-term. If you want to reverse hair thinning so your thinning hair grows back thicker, without the need of all these other treatments, look into the Hair Regeneration treatment featured in this video. I hope this clarifies things for you.

At 6 months of hair transplant and losing my existing and transplanted hair. Is it normal?

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi @karnakankuwala8658, If by losing you mean shedding, this is normal, and shed hair grows back. Pattern hair loss is not hair shedding, but progressive hair thinning. Hair thinning of native hair, and grafted hair prone to thinning still continues after a hair transplant, especially with FUE transplants that take hair grafts outside of the permanent zone (hair genetically resistant to hair thinning). Hair transplants by themselves do not treat progressive hair thinning at all. You can refer to this more recent video about it - kzbin.info/www/bejne/qHrPemhre5lqbtk

[@jeffscottbowman1]

Any treatment centers on the west coast? or who would you recommend if i live in Washington state?

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Jeff Bowman, It is difficult to recommend others for a similar treatment because the predictability of the results, and the number of times treatment is needed varies with providers. We often have people coming in from all over the US and the world just for the Hair Regeneration treatment because it is only needed once. Other treatments needed regular booster shots, or in PRP they are needed every month or so indefinitely. Many of our patients actually get back on the plane home the same day as treatment, but I don't recommend this for everyone as it is dependent on general health condition and age.

[@jeffscottbowman1]

How are you able to do just one treatment while others have you doing monthly PRP?

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Jeff Bowman,PRP alone is commonly practiced for hair loss, but I don't feel it is effective for long-term hair loss treatment. In fact, many of my Hair Regeneration patients were using PRP alone for hair loss prior to seeing us. They felt they weren't seeing the results they wanted with PRP, and/or couldn't keep up with the schedule of regular shots. The main ingredient of Hair Regeneration is extracellular matrix, which works as a wound healing material. When activated by PRP, extracellular matrix induces a wound healing response that makes your own inactive adult stem cells active again, so the hair growth process is renewed and reactivated. This makes the hair go from actively growing thinner, to shed and grow back thicker. This essentially reverses the hair loss process where hair grows thinner and thinner until it disappears, to grow thicker so hair is not lost.

As a cosmetic surgeon one would automatically move to anything surgical as in prp as a needle is needed

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi @azizrahman9496, I actually don't perform surgical hair transplants as often as i used to because thickening thinning hair non-surgically can result in better scalp coverage, and better long-term treatment than a hair transplant. However, PRP alone is not enough to thicken thinning hair, and stimulate hair growth for the long-term. Our treatment only requires 1-2 injection treatment sessions, with results lasting 3-5 years. PRP alone would require treatment sessions every 1-3 months, but you get less thickening of thinning hair, and results don't last as long, so you need to keep getting injections. You can refer to these videos on how our non-surgical treatment differs from PRP alone, and how it can replace surgical hair transplants altogether: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIukeJR3qNiYrbs kzbin.info/www/bejne/kJqZc6ulnJ6Siac

[@midhunmtl]

Sir. PRP can done by derma roller?or it should done by injection method? , Which type of method is more beneficial??

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi midhun K, PRP can only be extracted and prepared by a medical practice, and medical practices have professional grade microneedling devices, and don't use dermarollers. PRP alone for hair loss is most commonly injected into the scalp. I don’t administer PRP alone for hair loss because it has a limited effect on hair, usually just short-term hair growth. Also, the number of sessions needed does vary, and the longevity of results is unpredictable. Hair Regeneration is a PRP combination treatment where PRP is the activator of the main ingredient extracellular matrix by ACell. Hair Regeneration is a one-time treatment for most patients, and can last up to 5 years and beyond, depending on the aggressiveness of the hair loss pattern. You don't need repeat injections periodically, and many older Hair Regeneration patients don’t need maintenance drugs like finasteride, but finasteride can concurrently help younger male patients with very early and aggressive hair loss. PRP injections for hair loss are needed indefinitely.

hi i'm from India & 28yrs of age. from last 10 yrs my hair started thinning & I'm completely bald now. I used minoxidi & fenasteride, but discontinued after knowing their side effects. will this hair restoration treatment bring my hair again. is this treatment available in India.

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi karthik G, Sorry to hear about your problem. The Hair Regeneration treatment can thicken your actively thinning hair - after it sheds, the hair can grow back thicker after treatment. This effectively stops and reverses the hair loss process because hair loss occurs when hair grows back thinner and thinner after it sheds, until it eventually stops growing at all. However, if your hair is smooth bald, your hair follicles may already be dead, and the treatment cannot bring back dead hair follicles. It can save the hair follicles if they are weak or dying, but it cannot create new follicles. I would have to examine your scalp to see if you are a candidate for treatment, but you can also check if you still have thinning hair left that can be saved. Sometimes smooth-bald areas have dormant hair follicles, which can also be saved by the treatment with thicker hair growth if they haven't been smooth-bald for more than 2 years, but the treatment is more predictable to treat visibly present thinning hair. We don't currently offer the treatment in India, but we do have many Indian patients coming to the US for treatment. Since it is a non-surgical treatment with little to no recovery time, and in most cases no additional treatment, you don't need an extended stay in the US. Many patients actually get back on the plane home the same day as treatment, but I don't recommend this for everyone as it is dependent on general health condition and age.

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Thenoorandali, I don’t administer PRP alone for hair loss because it has a limited effect on hair, usually just short-term hair growth. Hair Regeneration is a PRP combination treatment where PRP is the activator of the main ingredient extracellular matrix by ACell. Hair Regeneration is a one-time treatment that so far has lasted over 5 years in our original patients treated over 5 years ago, and is still working for them. You don't need repeat injections periodically, or maintenance drugs with Hair Regeneration. PRP injections for hair loss may be needed for life. Hair Regeneration can help hair transplants by helping hair grafts heal better, increase the survival rate of hair grafts through advanced healing, thickening existing native hair, prevent the need for future hair transplants by stopping progressive hair thinning, which all improve overall results of a hair transplant. I do advise Hair Regeneration be applied 1-2 months from the time of the hair transplant. I hope this clarifies things for you.

I have hair loss from 10 months and I lost more than 40% hairs.. Can I regrow my lost hairs by this treatment? How long does it work and repeated? Also is there any discount for students?

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Azlan Khan, The Hair Regeneration treatment is primarily for hair that is still present, but thinning. Thinning hair still has the hair follicles in place, so as long as the follicle is still there, the hair can be saved and thickened. If the hair follicle is no longer there, there is nothing left to save. Hair Regeneration is a one-time treatment which lasts at least 3-5 years, although the first patients from over 5 years ago still haven’t experienced hair thinning again. Only time will tell how long the treatment really lasts. Some patients with advanced hair loss get a second injection in the second year to build on results, but the vast majority of patients only need one treatment. I hope this clarifies things for you.

There is no permanent solution for hair loss, but our Hair Regeneration treatment can manage hair loss for at least 3-5 years with only one treatment session.

Hello Doctor, I am interested in your your treatment it looks very promising. Now I have thinning all over, and I don't take any minoxidil, I just eat healthy. My question is if I get your injections and afterwords start taking start taking minoxidil with a ru58841 which is suppresses Dht topically will I see faster hair growth?

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Aaron Farsani, You won't necessarily experience faster hair growth if you take additional medications. The reaction time for Hair Regeneration, as well as minoxidil and finasteride, including ru58841, depends on where you are in the hair growth/shedding cycle. If you are planning on getting the Hair Regeneration treatment, and not currently on hair loss medication, I suggest you have the treatment done first as you may not need additional medication. Hair loss drugs require daily maintenance, so it is better for you if they can be avoided.

[@aaronfarsani399]

Good to know. What about scalp messages to increase blood flow to the hair follicles will that be able to result in faster hair growth?

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Scalp massages can help, but hair growth is fairly slow so it won't make a significant impact on speed of hair growth.

[@aaronfarsani399]

So once I get injections can anything ruin it? Such as steroids? HGH? etc. I have heard that taking creatine, can increase testosterone which in effect increase's dht and can increase hair loss. What is your take on that?

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Shyam Prasad Rijal, Sorry to hear that. You can see how we perform the Hair Regeneration treatment in our videos for the crown area. If you started thinning at your crown just recently, you are at a border of medium DHT-sensitivity, so further examination is needed to determine if you need a DHT-blocker like finasteride with the Hair Regeneration treatment or not. Minoxidil can also help the crown, but it doesn't treat the cause of hair loss. PRP alone only stimulates short-term hair growth,so I would recommend a treatment like Hair Regeneration and possibly a DHT-blocker. I hope this clarifies things for you

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

I don't recommend dermarollers in general as the rolling action can unnecessarily stretch the microholes in the skin, and depth and aggressiveness are hard to control without medical training or supervision. There is also a risk of infection if the skin and device are not sterile. Minoxidil can cause scalp irritation if it goes through the microholes left by the dermaroller. I hope this clarifies things for you.

Hi@@md.borhanuddinornab6535, Hijama uses the principle of increasing blood flow to the scalp, but so does PRP alone, and PRP alone only works for short-term hair growth, and requires many and unending treatment sessions.

But if I get back on rogaine will I shed again 😔

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Danny JF, Hair transplants do not treat progressive hair thinning at all, so treatment is needed after a hair transplant. Finasteride needs to be taken continually to block DHT-formation to slow progressive hair thinning. I do find finasteride or another DHT-blocker more effective and important than minoxidil. Minoxidil appears to delay the hair shedding cycle, and extends the hair growth cycle so you appear to have more hair on your head. You will have to use it daily to sustain these effects, but these effects can also decrease with time even if you use it daily. Finasteride can be used long-term more predictably. You can refer to these videos about why treatment is still needed after a hair transplant, the limits of minoxidil, the importance of finasteride, and how our TrichoStem Hair Regeneration patients don't need minoxidil after our treatment: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qHrPemhre5lqbtk kzbin.info/www/bejne/qaebY4uJpbaZpKs kzbin.info/www/bejne/nH22c2CqepWamdE kzbin.info/www/bejne/imbMgZd5m79lhMk

what is hair regeneration?

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

Hi Shakir Jubaer Khan, Hair Regeneration is a one-time, non-surgical treatment that thickens thinning hair, and stops hair loss using a combination of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and extracellular matrix by ACell. The treatment lasts at least 3-5 years, and works on close to 100% of male and female pattern hair loss with visible results. Hair Regeneration also doesn't require maintenance drugs such as minoxidil or finasteride. Unlike a hair transplant, Hair Regeneration can stop progressive hair loss, so hair future hair transplants can be avoided. Although it can be used to help heal a hair transplant and improve hair graft survival, most patients use Hair Regeneration as a hair transplant alternative and avoid surgical hair transplantation altogether. You can learn more about Hair Regeneration on this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z36ZZ2honK6pmKc or visit www.nyhairloss.com or www.trichostem.com. I hope the further information helps you.

[@AmiyaPrasadMD]

PRP alone may help with short-term hair growth if the area still has thinning hair. With Hair Regeneration, if there is thinning hair in the bald spot, it can make the hair grow thicker and stop continued hair thinning and hair loss in this area. However, if the bald spot has been smooth-bald for a number of years, the hair follicles are dead, and injection treatments like PRP and Hair Regeneration will not work. The only way to restore hair in smooth-bald areas where there are no longer viable hair follicles is with a transplant. I hope this helps you.
