Shall I go for PRP treatment to control hair fall?

Question

Hi doctor,

I have been suffering from scalp psoriasis and male pattern baldness grade 3A. Can I go for PRP treatment for hair fall control? I am presently using Finasteride, multivitamin and Minscalp F 5 % solution.

Answer 1

Hi,

I am glad you chose icliniq for your medical-related queries.

I understand your concern and will try to help you with it.

Yes, you can go for PRP therapy (platelet-rich plasma). It is a good therapy for hair fall with excellent results. It basically activates platelet-derived growth factors, which are the key factors for hair growth. It is a must to use Minoxidil 5 % lotion daily during night. Also, I suggest tablet Xtraglo (Biotin) once daily for six months along with this therapy for better results. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and take treatment with consent.

Thank you for consulting me.

Answer 2

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I read and understand your concern.

PRP (platelets rich plasma) is prepared from your own blood. So, it is entirely safe provided there should not be any infection at the injection site.

Looking forward to your response in order to help you.

Thank you.
