If you are suffering from androgenic alopecia and the grade of hair loss requires hair transplant you should go for it but even after hair transplant you have to continuously apply minoxidil. Minoxidil will help all the hairs which are already present on your head to become more thick and dense. There is no substitute for minoxidil. PRP will also help in the initial 6 months after transplant

Greetings, I firstly want you to understand androgenetic alopecia - is a chronic process. PRP and Hair transplantation will definitely improve your balding - but maintenance medication in the form of minoxidil is a must. PRP boosts hair growth that minoxidil is giving you - so it helps overall hair growth and density.
See a qualified dermatologist near you. Warm regards.
