PRP for thinning hairline
My front hairline is thinning .I am using minoxidil 5 % after prescription from my dermitologist.She has also recommended PRP treatment .how prp treatment will be effective and do I need to use minoxidil continuously or can I stop using it after PRP treatment ?Also how many minimum sessions of PRP are needed??PFA the pic for my hairline.
Certain Dermatologists advice procedures like PRP therapy, platelet rich plasma therapy when needed which may accelerate the rate of hair growth. PRP needs multiple sessions roughly at 6 weeks intervals. PRP is rich in components needed for the hair to grow and become healthier. However it is a top-up treatment and has to be done in parallel to the main medications for hair fall. PRP therapy is increasingly being accepted by dermatologists all over the world. However you have to remember that it is a top up therapy and has to be used in conjunction with Minoxidil. Minoxidil is for indefinite usage and has to become a part of life.
