Someone's brother tried Platelet-richplasma (PRP) for hair loss; it had minimal effect on hair but improved skin appearance. Microneedling at home was suggested as a more sustainable alternative.
The conversation discusses alternatives to Platelet-richplasma (PRP) for treating androgenic alopecia. Treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
Platelet-richplasma (PRP) therapy for hair loss is expensive, painful, and often ineffective, with mixed reviews on its benefits. Alternatives like minoxidil, finasteride, and hair transplants are suggested as more reliable options.
Microneedling and Platelet-RichPlasma (PRP) are equally effective for treating androgenetic alopecia, with no additional benefits from PRP over microneedling. Both treatments are safe and well-tolerated.
The conversation discusses avoiding caffeine after Platelet-RichPlasma (PRP) treatment for hair loss because caffeine is a vasoconstrictor, which can reduce blood flow and hinder the healing process that PRP aims to promote.
