    Based on what doctors have told me. Ask Dr. Greco. I doubt he would even perform the procedure on you monthly.

    He not only said he would but that he has noted improved results. So uh...
    Yeah. Also there are two to three studies showing improved efficacy of growth factor treatments with more frequent applications.

    Interesting. Alright, I stand corrected. Let us know how it goes. Maybe I should be going more often.

    I have read that also. I have seen at least 1-2 studies where they did it monthly for the first 3 or so months, and then semiannually to maintain.

    Hard to sell patients on a 1k treatment a month though. I just am lucky that i've gone into a career path that allows me to afford these treatments at a young age.

    I don't mind the cost so much as the travel. Getting to Sarasota from where I live is a royal pain. I usually can only get out there twice a year. If it were in my town, I'd probably go every month or two.

    Fair enough. Well I'll let you all know how I get on.

    In the last week, my scalp has begun to feel better than it has in years. I am also not shedding AT ALL. I can run my hand through my hair and typically not have any hairs fall out, whereas before I'd lose numerous (5-10) each time.

    Will keep you guys updated, but as of so far, I am a believer in Dr. Greco's CRP.

    Are you currently on any other treatments or recently stopped any others?

    Not on any other treatments at all.
