Hi everyone so I have a question for anyone that may have experienced this, I had a hair transplant around 11 months ago & at first it was horrible I had so much shock loss I went nearly completely bald needed concealers everyday but tried to stay calm & positive it'd grow back, at about the 6 month point it did come back I was so thankful & happy with how I looked, anyway my surgeon recommended I do PRP to maintain my hair so I had my first treatment about 4 months ago then my second 6 weeks ago I was booked in for my 3rd next week but I've cancelled it as my hair has become much thinner because of it I'd say I've lost probably 40% of my hair density & it's really stressing me out, has anyone else experienced this? And did it come back? After how long? I'm hoping it's either shock loss again from the injections or maybe my unhealthy folicles have pushed the hairs out to begin growing healthier ones? My surgeon is currently overseas but one of his staff members said PRP can't make hair fall out because it's just concentrated growth factors etc but he's wrong because it has, I'd appreciate if anyone can shed some light on this, thanks everyone.

And as Jamesst11 said, I too believe PRP causes TE. Mainly because of the timing of the shed and the amount of shedding after my PRP treatment. It was scary to say the least. Portions of my hairline that I lost after my PRP treatments never grew back.Comment
