Minoxidil is something that if you apply for hairloss at the age of 25, u gotta take it till u want your hair loss to occur again. Also you need to start multivits specially related to hair. Prp therapy may work as well
Next Steps
minoxidil, finestride, prp and nanofat work great for hair loss

If you have a visible bald patch in the crown then you can try to do medication. But this helps with only 20percent increase in density and coverage. For more coverage, a Follicular unit extraction hair transplant is the best option. PRP which is being offered in all clinics will damage the scalp and scuttle your chances at getting a great result after hair transplant. PRP is only a temporary solution. Hair fall restarts after you stop having PRP.
Call my clinic for an appointment.
