    Default PRP AND ACELL FOR "maintenance"

    What doctors are the most knowledgable and experienced when it comes to PRP to keep existing hair? If any doctors are reading this, what are your success rates? and lastly, has any member here seen benefits from this treatment?

    I searched PRP in my area and one of the doctors sites it said he stopped using it because of unsatisfactory results...Found it interesting.

    Had it done in January. Does absolutely nothing.

    I also went to a well-respected doctor in this field to have it done. The results were non-existent and it was a waste of $1k.

    I've had multiple prp sessions done with Dr Greco in Florida. They are not at all worthless in my opinion, but they're also not a miracle cure. I generally notice a small shed after each treatment, followed by thicker, higher quality hair and less shedding over the next several months. I have also maintained most of my hair since quitting finasteride over 3 years ago and I use no other meds. Is this all due to PRP or is it just my genetics? Who knows, but I will keep getting treatments twice a year until something better comes along.

    Went to the same doctor (Dr. Greco) and had the same procedure. Prior to the injections, what turned me off was all the applications he showed me PRP was proven to work for...but failed to really show me anything in regards to the treatment of MPB. I wasn't impressed and it turned me off.

    He stated 4 months to see results well it's 6 and I haven't seen anything. It's not worth it in my opinion for $1k. Total waste of money. It didn't even thicken my existing hair...
