    I should clarify, I did get his new CRP.

    As did I. I'm going back for my second treatment at the end of November and my third will be at the start of January.

    I hear people talking about "PRP costs $1000 (for example)", but do they mean $1000 for one treatment +future treatments? I have a hard time believing this, it's probably $1000 for first treatment + additional costs for future treatments, right? If so, how much are those 2nd, 3rd, and so on treatments? Just as expensive or less expensive?

    That's the cost per treatment. Crp is more expensive though. He does give discounts for repeat users, something like 10% off.

    Hm that would get pretty expensive indeed. I don't have much knowledge on the subject of PRP and CRP but my understanding was it was basically a boosted minox...

    Anyway, I looked up PCP/CRP and it seems that it's only being done in the US (maybe I haven't searched properly enough though). I don't live in the US so I guess I'm not going to undergo this treatment anytime soon (if at all).

    Thanks for clarifying things though.

    Italians also are doing some crp. I'm in a good financial position so I can afford up to 1k a month. Most people get this done once every 8 months

    Cost depends on the method. Might be $1700 for CRP or Acell. As a group we need to find a way to drive this down so treatments are at least $100 a month. So every 8 month treatment would be $800. Group buys could drive cost down???

    Why would you get them so close together? I don't think you're going to benefit from that and it sure is expensive.

    It's about $2,000 per year for these treatments, plus travel costs. If I was able to take meds, I would not do these. But, if you have the time and money, can't or don't want to take meds, and are really concerned about hair loss, this is probably your best option.

    Based on what evidence? Further, Expense is relative.
