I've never heard of PRP/Acell ever causing hairloss, so I would think your shedding could only be a good sign! Who did your injections?

FTL, where did you go to have it done?

Can you post before and after photos? Would be interested to see where it all stand now. The whole shedding thing freaks me out but maybe that's what we have to go through to grow in better hair.
Thanks,

How is it working out? Have you seen any difference yet? Shedding varies on my part. Some days good, some days bad. I have no visible improvement now at the three month mark, but, I have noticed small thin hairs on my hairline. I am just skeptical as to whether they are a result of the PRP or they are just thinning.

I would say my CRP with Dr. Greco was useless. It did not stop my loss or bring any regrowth whatsoever. I'm two months out of my first PRP/ACELL and I've lost a lot of hair, I guess we will see in 2 more months if this is shedding because the treatment is working, or if my mpb just accelerated.

Thanks for your updates FearTheLoss. I was thinking of spending $3000 on this treatment, and your experience has brought me back to reality on this treatment.

I would wait a couple more months, I have seen it work for some people and I know just about every doctor does it differently.
I'll give you my final judgement on PRP in May. I know it definitely has it's place in the field of hair restoration, it just needs to be studied more and fine tuned.

That doctor, Amiya Prasad, charges $3500 and claims that his treatment is necessary only once every 3 years. He has a very slick marketing campaign, and I can't tell if he's trying to scam us.
He uses PRP and "extracellular matrix" along with vitamin D. If it really is only necessary once every 3 years, I'll do it. But I need some confidence that he's not a scam artist.
-
I would 100% say he is a scam artist. I would NOT get it done with the doctor you linked. I promise you that is not legit.

I am 3 months post OP with my second FUE transplant with PRP and experienced a lot of shockloss/shedding compared to my first procedure without prp and wonder if it's due to the prp injection..
