Very informative. I really liked your explanation. I would suggest to change the title of the video because I am planning to do this procedure and I have seen really good results from other people and their videos. So i was not looking to get s negative feedback about it and your title suggest that. And the truth is you didn't give me a negative insight but a very informed professional opinion about it.
Hi Lastweektonight Show, That's great to hear that PRP has worked for you. However, my point is that PRP takes a lot of treatment sessions, and results should be sustainable for the long-term. Our treatment in comparison only takes 1-2 treatment sessions that can last 3-5 years. Also, pattern hair loss is a genetic condition hardwired into the DNA, so it can't be stopped completely, but it can be managed. Also, some treatment protocols, say TrichoStem Hair Regeneration often combined with finasteride, are more effective in long-term management than say PRP with finasteride, or finasteride alone, or PRP alone. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Hi@@yassingurhan6204, Traction alopecia can permanently damage hair follicles due to constant tension, and in such cases no treatment can revive the follicles, so a transplant may be the only option if the follicles are too damaged. Non-surgical scalp treatments only work on thinning hair, and hair follicles that are still viable but not growing hair. I hope this clarifies things for you.
I thank your mother and father for you.Very informative .Thank you for your knowledge, and thank you for becoming a doctor with an extensive background in your field of expertise. I’ve had issues with my hair and it tends to fall out very easily,it does grow back but than continues to fall.A vicious cycle I’m dealing with, and I was thinking of doing the PRP,but after listening to you, I have changed my mind.Thank you .I wish the technique that your doing in California.
Hi Miss Roxxie, Thank you for your kind words. It's normal to shed 50-100 hairs a day, and as you say, they do grow back. Pattern hair loss is when the shed hair grows back thinner, and/or there is a delay in regrowth. I hope this clarifies things for you.
I'm 30 and have hair loss from PCOS, uncontrolled diabetes and weight issues. I plan to undergo weight loss surgery, and my endocrinologist says that my hair should grow back on its own after complete weight loss since my hormonal panel and diabetes should improve. However, I would like for it to get some extra help in the growth process if it even does. What is a good percentage of how much hair grows back from the procedure you do? I would like to book an appointment once I get my procedure done. Thanks
Hi RLR PLP, The TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment is primarily for female pattern hair loss, but we do treat cases of PCOS on a case-by-case basis. It is good that you will go through hormone therapy first to see what you can recover for hair growth. We see visible improvement in scalp coverage in over 99% of our female pattern hair loss patients as standalone procedure. Since PCOS also requires additional treatment, and we see fewer patients for PCOS-related hair loss, we can't really give a success rate. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Hi Dr Prasad, My question is regarding the PRP injection procedure specifically: I’m going to a specialist facility for hair loss, paying ~$1k per PRP session. (1) How complicated or sophisticated is the actual injection procedure? I ask because i have had one session so far and the doctor just made one injection on each side of my temples. It was my understanding that they needed to inject in the hair follicle individually? but he said he was injecting along some sort of “plane” and he knew how to do it. It took him all but 5 minutes and I was just a bit surprised i paid such a hefty sum for so little of his time… (2) Should i be willing to let a nurse practitioner perform the injection procedure, or should I generally opt for the doctor himself? They are trying to book the nurse practitioner to do it but since I am paying so much if it might make a difference I would prefer the doctor? Maybe this procedure is super simple and effectiveness doesn’t generally increase w/ more experience from the person conducting the procedure, in which case I should be fine with the nurse practitioner? Thanks.
Hi KoolA1d, It doesn't sound right that only your temples were injected, but at your peak hair count, there is about a 100,000 scalp hairs, so injecting individual follicles is not the approach either. You should have a doctor injecting your scalp, but I'm not sure about your doctor's expertise with this. I don’t administer PRP alone for hair loss because it has a limited effect on hair, usually just short-term hair growth. Also, the number of sessions needed does vary, and the longevity of results is unpredictable. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration is a PRP combination treatment where PRP is the activator of the main ingredient extracellular matrix by ACell. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration is a one-time treatment for most patients, and can last up to 5 years and beyond, depending on the aggressiveness of the hair loss pattern. You don't need repeat injections periodically, and many older TrichoStem™Hair Regeneration patients don’t use maintenance drugs like finasteride, but finasteride is a must for our younger male patients with very early and aggressive hair loss due to high DHT-sensitivity as TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration is not a DHT-blocker. PRP injections for hair loss are needed indefinitely. Some TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration patients with advanced hair loss get a second treatment 15-24 months after the first which we call the booster, but this is already included in the cost of the treatment plan, so you don’t pay extra for it. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration patients can stop using minoxidil completely, or be weaned off it to prevent a sudden hair shed. You can refer to these videos about the differences between TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration from PRP alone: th-cam.com/video/vZAGaAssewY/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/xSMTd9qVwNo/w-d-xo.html
@@AmiyaPrasadMD so how many injections should be made for somebody with only a very very slight beginning-to-recede hair line at their temples? 1-2, more than 7?, more than 15? Just roughly
Hi@@KoolA1d, I don't use protocols of PRP alone for hair loss, and I haven't seen your scalp, so I can't answer your question. For people with only moderate hair thinning, our TrichoStem Hair Regeneration patients likely need only 1 treatment session, with benefits lasting 3-5 years. Our patients with advanced hair loss get a second treatment 15-24 months after the first. I hope this clarifies things for you.
I had my first PRP session 2 weeks. After 4 days I started shedding an insane amound of hairs. I've been losing my hair for more than a decade and I'm on dutasteride so my overall hairloss is minimal. All the hairs that I'm still shedding 2 weeks after the prp are tiny and extreamly thin hairs almost invisible. I didn't even know that I had so many to lose. Could that be a normal reaction to the prp?
Hi @portishooda, Depending on how PRP scalp injections are performed, the trauma of the treatment can cause increased hair shedding, similar to shock loss after the trauma of a hair transplant. You can refer to this video about it - th-cam.com/video/kw9QXbQn060/w-d-xo.html
@@AmiyaPrasadMD Thank you for your answer doc! I was already suspecting that it could be shock loss because only tiny and almost colorless hairs are shedding and not the thick healthy ones. It's just that it happened too fast, after only 4 days of the injections.
Hi@@portishooda, In addition, with our ACell+PRP treatment TrichoStem Hair Regeneration, thinning or miniaturizing hair does need to shed before thicker hair can grow in its place. You can refer to this video on how our treatment, that only takes 1-2 treatment sessions with benefits lasting 5 years or more, is different from PRP alone - th-cam.com/video/vZAGaAssewY/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for this video and for explaining everything. How long do you recommend waiting between treatments? And after the problem is solved how frequently should we get PRP to preserve and maintain the results?

@@AmiyaPrasadMD thank you so much! After watching your other videos I really want to do your treatment. The problem is I’m not from U.S and I didn’t hear about this extracellular matrix in my country. Is there a way I could still somehow get this?
Hi@@reutgozlan1215, You're welcome! Extracellular matrix by ACell is not an easy material to get to work for hair loss, because too much causes hair shedding, and too little is ineffective. As a pioneer of this treatment protocol, with many other medical practices trying to replicate our system, but not succeeding, you would have to have it done in one of our offices. Sorry it can't be easier for you to do.
Hi Jovy Ebacuado, Mesotherapy is usually vitamin injections, and genetic pattern hair loss is a genetic problem, not a vitamin deficiency or a nutritional problem.

How much is the hair regeneration session? And when will you see the result after the treatment. I had 4 sessions of PRP and didn’t see any improvement. The doctor told me it would take 6 months to see the result.
Hi Tram Le, The cost of TrichoStem Hair Regeneration is based on a treatment plan, not on individual treatment sessions, so you are getting an upfront charge for your treatment and follow ups, with results lasting 3-5 years. Cost is determined by the extent of treatment needed, which is assessed on your first consultation. Our offices are located in the USA in Manhattan, New York City which you can call at (212) 265-8877; Garden City, Long Island at (516) 742-4636; or Vienna, Virginia at (703) 356-1446. You can also reach us through www.prasadcosmeticsurgery.com, www.nyhairloss.com, or www.trichostem.com by filling out a contact form, and we will get back to you regarding price range. I hope to hear from you soon.
Hi Dr Prasad , I’m currently turning mid 20s soon and recently begun experiencing hair loss for the past 3 months. Noticed my hair falling a lot but only recently my hair begun thinning extensively in the middle part . May i know is the PRP suitable for me or should i head for a FUE hair transplant ? really getting worried because my hair MEANS a lot to me and i really do style my hair a lot ! Would appreciate your advice 🙏!
Hi J C, I haven't diagnosed the cause of your hair loss, which is needed before recommending any treatment. With that said, I don't administer PRP alone for hair loss, and assuming you are male, ethical hair transplant surgeons generally don't recommend transplants for men under 30, or for diffuse hair thinning. You can refer to these videos about why hair transplants are not advised for men under 30, and the differences of our treatment from PRP alone: th-cam.com/video/2GkCy-30hFg/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/vZAGaAssewY/w-d-xo.html

Hi Rutuja, I don't administer PRP alone for hair loss, but our PRP combination treatment, which only requires 1-2 treatment sessions for 3-5 years of benefit, can completely replace minoxidil, and is a standalone treatment for female pattern hair loss.

Hello doctor. I hope you respond to my comment as soon as possible. My situation is very depressing for a 19 year old. Ive been having hair fall since early September this year. Ive been trying many product from supplements, to hair shampoo hair tonics of so many brands nothing works. Ive been to many spas and salons they said the same thing, it might be due to stress and poor diet. But stress now is inevitable for as me as im having online classes. My hair is still falling especially when i wash my hair, i wash my hair everyday and averagely my hair will drop 10-15 strands in each wash. Ive tried scalp detox and mesotherapy but nothing worked. Yes my diet and stress needs to be taken care of but doc, what treatment do you suggest me to do, to stop or reduce my hair fall? will PRP be my last resort?
Hi shaunlovesbread, Sorry to hear about your problem. It doesn't sound like female pattern hair loss as that occurs with gradual hair thinning over time, not just in a few months. What you have sounds like hair shedding, which is usually temporary, and can be caused by severe stress. Temporary hair shedding usually doesn't require treatment, but you should have a proper diagnosis of the cause. If you can't come and see us for a proper diagnosis, I suggest you see an experienced doctor for a scalp examination so the cause and issue can be confirmed. I hope this helps you.
Hi@@shaunwong2012, You need to see a doctor for a proper examination of your scalp, and I diagnosis. I hope you understand that I can't diagnose your condition based on a limited written description, and not seeing your scalp at all. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Hello doctor, I have undergone 2 sessions of PRP and my hair has not shown any progress. What I noticed was that they washed my hair intensively with disinfectant at least 3-4 times during the whole session. This was done perhaps to avoid infection on the injected scalp. My question is- is this normal to wash the scalp so many times during this process. Wouldn't this affect the efficiency of the process?
Hi the citizen, While it is important to disinfect the scalp before the procedure, as well as use topical and injectable anesthetic, it does sound excessive, especially since injecting the scalp takes only a few a minutes.
@@AmiyaPrasadMD Thank you doctor for your response. Yes it indeed seems excessive. Particularly because they disinfected once before the procedure, twice in the middle of the procedure and once at the end. I am concerned because almost all sources suggest to avoid washing scalp after the process because it decreases the efficacy. I feel these excessive disinfectant washes during the process may reduce the efficiency. Do you think this is likely?
Hi@@thecitizen1401, I hope you understand that since I'm not aware of your doctor's treatment protocol, it would be inappropriate for me to judge the efficacy. You can refer to this video on how our treatment is different from PRP alone - th-cam.com/video/vZAGaAssewY/w-d-xo.html

So you do a one time treatment of platelet rich plasma COMBINED with extracellular matrix, and then repeat a year later for advanced cases, and this produces lasting, noticable results in the 2-5 year range?
Hi Affluent Nerd, Close, but not quite that simple. Extracellular matrix is the main ingredient, and PRP is the activator. Also, not all extracellular matrix+PRP treatments are the same just because the ingredients are the same, as too little ECM and it's just like PRP alone, and too much causes hair shedding. The treatment lasts 3-5 years, or more, but younger men with high DHT-sensitivity will need a DHT-blocker as well as the injection treatment does not block DHT, and it's not a finasteride replacement. Men with high DHT-sensitivity who refuse finasteride will not get the same longevity of results. The second treatment is done 15-24 months after the first.

Hello, I've been dealing with diffuse hair loss for over a year (it is not the first time that I had period of massive hair loss bit never this long!). I been do multiple doctors, nobody really knew to tell me what is the cause, the blood tests seemed normal. My current doctor said is ETellogen probably from chronic stress. I have been doing treatments prior as well with topical treatments and shampoos, vitamins and my hair loss wasnt / isn't stopping. I did my 4th PRP (the first 2 were 2 weeks apart then a month ) my hair is still falling. I don't know what else could I do, the doctor said I need at least 4 more sessions. I am just about to give up and let it be. I don't have an understanding to what is happening to my hair and why. What would be your advise? (I don't have bald spots, my hair falls from everywhere, is more evident in the front and on the sides, but is thinned on the back and on the top too). I hope you will see this, Thank you!
Hi Paula Dragos, Sorry to hear about your problem. Pattern hair loss does not come and go, but it is progressive hair thinning, not sudden hair shedding. It may be chronic telogen effluvium, but that doesn't require treatment, but rather controlling or resolving the stress that triggers it. It is possible to have have concurrent pattern hair loss and telogen effluvium, but I would have to examine your scalp before I can recommend specific treatments. I hope this helps you.
@@AmiyaPrasadMD Thank you so much for your reply! I am asking just one more reply of your time, and even if you wont be able to answer i am still grateful for the prior one! I am not from the States and the specialists in hair care and treatment here are very few, and even though I looked for the most qualified they didn't tell me what you just mentioned. I am 25 yo. How would I know if is chronic ET or if is progressive premature thinning? is there a way I could find if my doctor won't be able to tell me? if they are both (or just the pattern loss) is there something I could do besides trying out topicals, vitamins and PRP. Are these helping in anyway? (mixed with targeting the stress factor). should I expect my hair to thin out more and more until is very little left? Thank you again for reading me
Hi@@verryberrymerry, Female pattern hair loss is challenging to diagnose, but scalp biopsies can confirm it. Hair thinning can also be identified using microscopic scalp examination.

Hi babar ali, Extracellular matrix is sourced from porcine bladder because of its remarkable regenerative properties, but it is processed to remove the biological material. You can refer to these videos on how male pattern hair loss is diagnosed and treated in our practice, the factors of male pattern hair loss and how they are treated, and how TrichoStem Hair Regeneration can be a hair transplant alternative: th-cam.com/video/BmwyXS0D5tg/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/d0tddJt6OME/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/Zi6Bxog9_SE/w-d-xo.html
Hi Abdullah elAttar, Minoxidil usually only stimulates fine hair growth, which doesn't grow long. Minoxidil's main effect is to delay the hair shedding cycle, and extend the hair growth cycle so you appear to have more hair on your head. You will have to use it daily to sustain these effects, but these effects can also decrease with time even if you use it daily. I don’t administer PRP alone for hair loss because it has a limited effect on hair, usually just short-term hair growth. Also, the number of sessions needed does vary, and the longevity of results is unpredictable. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration is a PRP combination treatment where PRP is the activator of the main ingredient extracellular matrix by ACell. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration is a one-time treatment for most patients, and can last up to 5 years and beyond, depending on the aggressiveness of the hair loss pattern.

So far Doc I got 2000 gratfs in front of my head with a hairline which included 2 PRP treatment done by FUE with the robotic system for 9K flat zero percent intrest. Do you think it was a good deal? Or too much? I would appreciate it if you response. My name is Rudy tks Doc..
Hi@@hammerdown2231, My general opinion on price is that a well-performed procedure saves you money in the long run. I generally don't perform FUEs because they produce less overall grafts, some grafts are still prone to thinning, and they have a higher rate of graft damage (transection) due to the individual graft harvesting process. I also don't perform PRP alone for hair loss because of the multiple treatment sessions for results that are not good, or last as long as ours which only needs 1-2 treatments that can last 3-5 years. I hope this helps you.
Hi Dr Prasad ! I am a doctor practicing aesthetic medicine,kindly tell me how i can get Acell ? I am from Pakistan ! Looking forward for your reply ! Thankyou
Hi Zeeshankhan 222328, ACell is the name of the company, but getting it to work for hair loss is a different story altogether as too much causes hair shedding, and too little makes it no different from PRP alone. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Hi Tawsif Mahmud, Your first need to have the cause of your hair loss diagnosed, as pattern hair loss is progressive hair thinning, not rapid hair shedding.

Hi Eric Sedique, Pattern hair loss is a genetic condition hardwired into the DNA, so it's not something that can be prevented. If you don't have signs of pattern hair loss, preventive treatment isn't practical. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Hi@@fashionsewingstuff8182, Telogen effluvium doesn't require treatment for shed hair to grow back. I only advise treatment for telogen effluvium if there is concurrent pattern hair loss. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Hi daniel ahmed, We don't currently offer the treatment in Europe, but we do have many patients from around the continent coming to the US for treatment (under normal travel conditions). Since it is a non-surgical treatment with little to no recovery time, and in many cases no additional treatment, you don't need an extended stay in the US. Many patients actually get back on the plane home the same day as treatment, but I don't recommend this for everyone as it is dependent on general health condition and age. Some patients with advanced hair loss may get a second treatment 15-24 months after the first, and results for international patients are monitored through Skype, FaceTime, or email follow up.
Hi sir. I have visited the doctor 👨⚕️ here and he said he will do 9 sessions at once on the same day same time ...... so i was confused 🤷🏻♂️ is it ok to do all 9 sessions at once ???? Waiting for ur reply ???? With appreciation 👍👍👍
Hi nawaf zahir, Although I don't administer PRP alone for hair loss treatment, having 9 sessions at once does not sound right, or particularly useful. I suggest you get a second opinion from a different doctor in your area if you are determined to have have PRP injections for hair loss. You can refer to this video about how TrichoStem Hair Regeneration is different from PRP alone, and the results in my videos are only from a single treatment session that can last 3-5 years, but some patients where indicated have two sessions, but separated by 15-24 months - th-cam.com/video/vZAGaAssewY/w-d-xo.html
Hi abhi, PRP is used to treat genetic pattern hair loss, so I'm not sure what other type of hair loss you are looking to treat.

Hi Amna Khan, The genes for pattern hair loss are hardwired into the DNA, so it's not something that can be completely cured or stopped.

Hi Gustavo Cabrera, We have been treating people with ACell+PRP since 2011, which is longer, and with more patients treated than any other practice, and this has not occurred in any of our patients. I would not use a treatment on my patients that carries unnecessary risks. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Hi Thejus 9446550924, Sorry to hear about your problem. I am assuming you are male. Male pattern hair loss is not cured or stopped, but it can be managed. It does need a proper diagnosis from a doctor before you start treatment. If you have male pattern hair loss starting in your 20s or younger, you are likely highly DHT-sensitive, and need a DHT-blocker like finasteride to control it, and slow hair thinning. The TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment featured in the video can thicken thinning hair, and stimulate growth from dormant hair follicles, but it cannot block DHT-formation. You can refer to these videos about the importance of blocking DHT in young men with male pattern hair loss, and how we can go beyond DHT blockers alone to increase hair thickness and scalp coverage: th-cam.com/video/fLSB-tE0gco/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/4YowPNRsv6I/w-d-xo.html
Hi SAIMA ANWAR, PRP alone for hair loss has different treatment protocols, with some doctors doing it every month, to three months. I don’t administer PRP alone for hair loss because it has a limited effect on hair, usually just short-term hair growth. Also, the number of sessions needed does vary, and the longevity of results is unpredictable. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration is a PRP combination treatment where PRP is the activator of the main ingredient extracellular matrix by ACell. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration is a one-time treatment for most patients, and can last up to 5 years and beyond, depending on the aggressiveness of the hair loss pattern. You don't need repeat injections periodically, and many older TrichoStem™Hair Regeneration patients don’t use maintenance drugs like finasteride, but finasteride is a must for our younger male patients with very early and aggressive hair loss due to high DHT-sensitivity as TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration is not a DHT-blocker. PRP injections for hair loss are needed indefinitely. Some TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration patients with advanced hair loss get a second treatment 15-24 months after the first which we call the booster, but this is already included in the cost of the treatment plan, so you don’t pay extra for it. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration patients can stop using minoxidil completely, or be weaned off it to prevent a sudden hair shed.

Does prp treatment work for my hair as I am vitamin d deficient and my becoming bald already.... Will there be hairfall after prp treatment. Will prp treatment go for a loss for me....
Hi Sharmila Krishnamurthy, Sorry to hear about your problem. You can supplement vitamin D with either pills or more sunlight exposure on bare skin areas. The cause of your hair loss still needs to be diagnosed, but PRP alone is not enough to manage pattern hair loss. Pattern hair loss is a genetic condition that can't be cured, but it can be successfully managed. You can refer to these videos on how we diagnose and treat female pattern hair loss: th-cam.com/video/aTb_Evz1jIM/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/eIFL1-mrg0I/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/lbngJ1a5GIw/w-d-xo.html
Hi Sadaf Hussain, TrichoStem Hair Regeneration is not like PRP alone, as it only requires 1-2 treatment sessions, with the second treatment being done 15-24 months after the first, and with benefits lasting 3-5 years, or even longer.

Hi manjula rajaiah, Sorry, our treatment has to be done in one of our offices in the US. We treat alopecia areata on a case-by-case basis as the TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment can thicken thinning hair, and stimulate hair growth from dormant hair follicles, but it does not treat the autoimmune attack of the hair follicles. I hope this clarifies things for you.
I took prp but no results sir can u suggest me best treatment for hai growth and for hair thickening iam 20 years old sir I have very thin hair and I took mole removal laser treatment. I was left with scar. Can u suggest me any treatment so that this scar wont be seen on face
Hi, I would have to examine the scar, and your skin type before recommending a specific treatment. I don’t administer PRP alone for hair loss because it has a limited effect on hair, usually just short-term hair growth. Also, the number of sessions needed does vary, and the longevity of results is unpredictable.

So I have to take this treatment can u give ur wts up bcz I was trying to send pics to u sir but the message is wasn't delivered and this stem cell treatment is done with human stem cells know sir pls tell us sir
Hi, The TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment does not contain stem cells in it (besides the stem cells in your own blood where PRP is taken), but it does trigger production of stem cells within your own body to renew a heathier hair growth cycle. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Hi hkd empiri, Hair shedding is normal during scalp injection treatments, but it shouldn't be excessive. Hair does need to shed before it can grow back thicker.

Hi Uzma Mirza, It is best to consult with your endocrinologist who is managing your condition if it is safe to have hair loss treatment injections. I hope this helps you.

Hi Ressources Jhb, The TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment has to be done in one of our offices in the US as it is a customized formulation based on a patient's individual hair loss factors, and it also requires PRP to be prepared from drawing your blood, so the treatment can't be shipped to be done somewhere else. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Hi@@ressourcesjhb2389, If you'd like to have the TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment, you'd have to come to one of our offices in the US. Since it is a non-surgical treatment with little to no recovery time, and in many cases no additional treatment, you don't need an extended stay in the US. Many patients actually get back on the plane home the same day as treatment, but I don't recommend this for everyone as it is dependent on general health condition and age. Some patients with advanced hair loss may get a second treatment 15-24 months after the first, and results for international patients are monitored through Skype, FaceTime, or email follow up. I hope this clarifies things for you.
I am suffering from pattern hair loss. can you please suggest me any any natural way, food or exercise to regrow hair or reduce hair loss? I dnt want to undergo any surgery or operation and in Bangladesh, they are not available.
Hi Maaroof Tawheed, I suggest you see a local doctor for a proper diagnosis for male pattern hair loss, and possibly start with a prescription DHT-blocker like finasteride. If you have male pattern hair loss starting in your 20s or younger, you are likely highly DHT-sensitive, and need a DHT-blocker like finasteride to control it, and slow hair thinning. The TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment can thicken thinning hair, and stimulate growth from dormant hair follicles, but it cannot block DHT-formation. There is no food or natural equivalent for a reliable DHT-blocker, especially if you are young with high sensitivity. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Hi Anis Manzoor, ECM with PRP is not easy to mix formulate, which is why not all these treatments work the same way.

Hi Awesome Baggs, Most of my patients shown in the videos only have one treatment session of TrichoStem Hair Regeneration. However, a second booster treatment is already included in the cost of the standard treatment plan, which is performed 15-24 months after the first to thicken fine hair growth that was stimulated from the first treatment. I hope this clarifies things for you.

Hi mohamad goni, Pattern hair loss is managed, not completely stopped or cured. PRP alone may stimulate short-term hair growth, but finasteride is needed to block DHT in men sensitive to it to slow hair thinning. The results shown in my videos are not from PRP alone, but from a PRP combination treatment.

@@AmiyaPrasadMD sir then prp+acell injection can stop hair loss and made my hair thicker?? Sir what is the cost of this treatment plz sir reply me I need your help plzzzz
Hi @@mohamadgoni4295, Like I said previously, pattern hair loss cannot be completely stopped or cured, but it can be managed. That said, the TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment does make thinning hair grow back thicker. The cost of the TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment varies with the extent of treatment needed. Cost of the treatment plan also includes the second booster treatment, if needed in advanced hair loss cases, as well regular follow ups to monitor your progress, either in our offices or through Skype, FaceTime or email. At its full cost, TrichoStem Hair Regeneration is priced at about half of a single FUT hair transplant, or about a third of an FUE transplant performed in the US. You can contact our offices or our websites for a price range.

Hi Eden BH, The TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment is for thickening progressively thinning hair due to pattern hair loss, not temporary hair shedding. Telogen effluvium usually doesn't require medical treatment for shed hair to grow back. You can refer to this video about it - th-cam.com/video/wuYmEGj_Wyg/w-d-xo.html
Hi Anjani Dubey, PRP alone won't thicken hair that has thinned due to chemical damage. We do approach this problem with ACell+PRP on a case-by-case basis, with some examples shown in this video - th-cam.com/video/7_g7TC59YUI/w-d-xo.html

Hi Doctor, thank you for your information. I would like to know if your treatment works for women over 60. I had lots of hairs and started losing them almost 30 years ago. It wasn’t obvious until now. I don’t lose a lot of hair at once but I guess whatever I am losing, doesn’t grow back. I used Rogain a few years back, but I got headaches and couldn’t countine. I don’t have totally bald spot but you see my sculp. I think I need DHT blocker. You mentioned finastride. I am not sure if it is for men or women can use it too. Also do you have any Drs in Los Angeles. I would appreciate your advise.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hi Guity Shaghaghi, Finasteride is not appropriate for women, but a woman your age may benefit from hormone therapy, particularly with estrogen.

Hi swati goyal, We do treat people with alopecia areata with TrichoStem Hair Regeneration, but this is on a case-by-case basis as it's primarily a treatment for pattern hair loss. While the treatment can help with hair growth and thickening thinning hair, it does not stop attack of the immune system on your body. While pattern hair loss cases need 1-2 treatments that can last 3-5 years or beyond, the unpredictability of alopecia areata makes the treatment protocol and longevity of treatment also unpredictable. I hope this clarifies things for you.
@@AmiyaPrasadMD thanks for replying here I have discussed about my options with one of the hair transplant surgeon. he is saying take 5 session of plan prp and 1 prp with acell. but I am not convinced with his explanation. I have diffuse thinning all over the head and 2 or 3 small patches. so what do u suggest in my case that what will give good results prp or prp with acell. and how many sessions on each will require. and yes I know its a immune system response and we can not guarantee that when immune system will attack again. but still if I want to go for this treatment what will be the best

Hi Giovanni Sanchez, I see patients all the time who have had injections of PRP alone elsewhere, and were frustrated with treatment. I don't treat pattern hair loss with PRP alone, but rather a combination treatment. Our TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment was developed to improve surgical hair transplants, so I've been performing non-surgical hair restoration for 10 years, and surgical hair transplants for over 20 years. While I'm not disparaging your doctor, you can ask them about how long they've performed PRP injections for hair loss, and about their previous hair restoration experience prior to performing PRP injections. I hope this clarifies things for you.

Hey doc, my doctor has diagnosed me with androgenic alopecia and have done one PRP session on me also he has recommended Biotin Tab. And Minoxidil 5% to use it twice a day, he said I will need 7-8 PRP sessions, so far done with one last week.. Will it help?
Hi Amicable, It's not clear whether you are male or female as causes of hair loss are different among men and women. However, Biotin is for hair growth and health, not for treatment of pattern hair loss which is genetic hair thinning. I don’t administer PRP alone for hair loss because it has a limited effect on hair, usually just short-term hair growth. Also, the number of sessions needed does vary, and the longevity of results is unpredictable. Hair Regeneration is a PRP combination treatment where PRP is the activator of the main ingredient extracellular matrix by ACell. Hair Regeneration is a one-time treatment for most patients, and can last up to 5 years and beyond, depending on the aggressiveness of the hair loss pattern. You don't need repeat injections periodically, and many older Hair Regeneration patients don’t use maintenance drugs like finasteride, but finasteride is a must for our younger male patients with very early and aggressive hair loss due to high DHT-sensitivity as Hair Regeneration is not a DHT-blocker. PRP injections for hair loss are needed indefinitely. Hair Regeneration patients can stop using minoxidil completely, or be weaned off it to prevent a sudden hair shed.
Hi@@Kidsplayhouse-k7s, The chances of sexual side effects from finasteride are extremely low, at about 2% of patients. There are much more common causes of sexual dysfunction in men such as excessive alcohol intake, smoking, lack of sleep, stress, and lack of exercise. Finasteride is a prescription drug, so if many doctors actually advise against it, it wouldn't be the most popular pattern hair loss drug in the world. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Hi @@Kidsplayhouse-k7s, We do provide a preliminary review of your case through our Virtual Pre Consultation if you send your pictures through nyhairloss.com/virtual-consultation/ or www.trichostem.com/virtual-hair-loss-consultation/ or prasadcosmeticsurgery.com/skype-virtual-consultations/ but this is not a formal consultation.

Hi Jegan U, PRP doesn't have any side effects, but the problems with PRP alone for hair loss are the constant treatments needed, and effects not lasting very long. You can refer to this video about the limits of PRP alone, and why a PRP combination treatment yields better, longer lasting results, with only 1-2 treatment sessions needed that can last 3-5 years - th-cam.com/video/xSMTd9qVwNo/w-d-xo.html
Hi David M, Not at the moment, but since it is a non-surgical treatment with little to no recovery time, and in many cases no additional treatment, you don't need an extended stay in the US. Many patients actually get back on the plane home the same day as treatment, but I don't recommend this for everyone as it is dependent on general health condition and age. Some patients with advanced hair loss may get a second treatment 15-24 months after the first, and results for international patients are monitored through Skype, FaceTime, or email follow up.

Hello, Doctor. I just did my first session of PRP. The assistant nurse refrigerated my PRP for about 1.5 hours before injection. Does it affect the effect?
Hi Kwik Way, The healing and growth factors of PRP that help heal cuts are active at normal body temperature, so I don't see the purpose of cooling PRP prior to treatment. I don't see any benefit to cooling, but you can ask your practitioner why they did it. I hope this helps you.

Hello doctor!my doctor said that prp can delay the process of your hairfall and can regrow to some extent but eventually i will lose them,my hair is still goodenough only hairline started receedind! What do you say about that?
Hi Shreyans Sethia, Sorry, but the TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment has to be done in one of our offices in the US. I think it's more important that you have your hair loss properly diagnosed by a local doctor, and get a prescription for finasteride to slow hair thinning. If you have male pattern hair loss starting in your 20s or younger, you are likely highly DHT-sensitive, and need a DHT-blocker like finasteride. The TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment can thicken thinning hair, and stimulate growth from dormant hair follicles, but it cannot block DHT-formation. PRP often requires multiple and constant treatments for limited hair growth, which doesn't last long-term. I hope this clarifies things for you.

I hope this clarifies things for you.

Hi Dontdalla, Sorry, I would have to examine a scalp first before I even recommend surgery be done. You can refer to this recent video about how most of my patients actually avoid hair transplant surgery - th-cam.com/video/Zi6Bxog9_SE/w-d-xo.html

@@AmiyaPrasadMD thanks but I'm not from the US, the dr I went to said he has mesotherapy so after sbT you said about PRP I'll go with mesotherapy it sounds much better Thanks for replying I really appreciated ur advise
Hi@@azizouamane4331, While I don't administer PRP alone because I have a better treatment for pattern hair loss, PRP is proven to stimulate hair growth, while vitamin injections such as mesotherapy are not a proven treatment.

Hi Hammer down, You look young in your picture. How old were you at the time of the transplant? This makes a big difference if you are too young for a hair transplant.
I see@@hammerdown2231. That's a good age to have a hair transplant. Many men commenting here have it in their 20s, which is strongly advised against. This recent video may help you about why treatment is still needed after a hair transplant as transplants do not treat progressive hair thinning at all - th-cam.com/video/rIlI55F478w/w-d-xo.html
Hi Ann Blessy, It depends on who is performing the scalp injection, and the protocol they follow. We use topical and injectable anesthetic prior to the TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment.

I'm going to get my first treatment in 2 weeks at orlando hair restoration. He said once a year. Is prp only temporary or if i go once a year will i maintain? You said your prp with a matrix is only once every 5 years? You should open a clinic in Orlando. The countries fastest growing city.. Im wondering the cost difference and i would need to travel to New York
Hi Christopher Hughes, The protocols for PRP alone are usually one injection treatment every 1-3 months in the first year. Some practices claim once a year for maintenance, only to recommend more treatments for better results. We do have some advanced hair loss patients get a second treatment 15-24 months after the first, but 2 treatments is the upper limit for the 3-5 year effectiveness, and there is no additional charge for the second or booster treatment. The cost of our treatment also includes regular follow ups to monitor your progress, but since you are from out of state, this can be done through email, Skype, or Facetime. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Hi Deano Al, Sorry to hear about your problem. While hair that sheds due to chemotherapy normally grows back, you may have developed a concurrent issue at some point during your recovery. Has your hair loss issue already been diagnosed?

Hi +houstone713HTX, I don’t administer PRP alone for hair loss because it has a limited effect on hair, usually just short-term hair growth. However, the Hair Regeneration is a PRP combination treatment does work on 99% of female pattern hair loss cases. Hair Regeneration has PRP as the activator of the main ingredient extracellular matrix by ACell. Hair Regeneration is a one-time treatment that so far has lasted over 5 years in our original patients treated over 5 years ago, and is still working for them. PRP injections for hair loss may be needed for life. Most female pattern hair loss patients can't have a hair transplant due to close proximity of existing hair from a diffuse hair thinning pattern. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Hi@Madhiya Suleman, Sorry, to hear that. PRP or a treatment like Hair Regeneration are used to treat pattern hair loss, while hair loss due to a hormonal imbalance is usually treated first through hormone therapy. It is possible you have concurrent pattern hair loss, but this needs to be confirmed with scalp biopsies in women. Consultations are by appointment only.

Hi Steve Wise, I didn't hear about 10 weekly injections either until I saw this question submitted. Even 10 monthly injections of PRP alone is questionable. The results of my patients shown in the video are from only 1 treatment session of our PRP combination treatment, although some patients get a second booster treatment 15-24 months after the first, with no additional charge as we charge for the full treatment plan. Results of our treatment last 3-5 years, or even more. I hope this clarifies things for you.
@@AmiyaPrasadMD Thanks for the response. As for once a month for 10 months, I’ve never heard of that either, and frankly it’s a scam. The industry is unregulated in any way and some physicians and small pop up clinics are unethical. Lastly, can you please do a video about Exosomes, as that’s the latest and greatest. My 17 year old is rapidly losing his hair and yesterday we did a Zoom with a doctor in greater Seattle who used to extoll the virtues of ACell and suddenly pivoted to exosomes and treatment costs are significantly greater. Some doctors I watch and respect on TH-cam said exosomes are unproven in studies despite the FDA approval and patients are guinea pigs.
Hi@@stevewise1656, I don't see any advantages of exosomes over our treatment that has had such a high success rate since 2011, with many doctors trying to replicate our results, and our treatment protocol. I am keeping an eye on exosome technology, and will provide updates if I see promise with it. I hope this helps you.
Hi stealthcomp14, PRP does contain some of your own stem cells. Our TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment does stimulate the body to produce its own stem cells called progenitor cells, which helps in renewing a healthier hair growth cycle so thinning hair grows back thicker. I hope this clarifies things for you.

Very informative. I really liked your explanation.

So i was not looking to get s negative feedback about it and your title suggest that. And the truth is you didn't give me a negative insight but a very informed professional opinion about it.

Hi Lastweektonight Show,
That's great to hear that PRP has worked for you. However, my point is that PRP takes a lot of treatment sessions, and results should be sustainable for the long-term. Our treatment in comparison only takes 1-2 treatment sessions that can last 3-5 years. Also, pattern hair loss is a genetic condition hardwired into the DNA, so it can't be stopped completely, but it can be managed. Also, some treatment protocols, say TrichoStem Hair Regeneration often combined with finasteride, are more effective in long-term management than say PRP with finasteride, or finasteride alone, or PRP alone. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Hey , when did you start seeing results after your prp?
What is the price of prp injection?
Hi@@yassingurhan6204,
Traction alopecia can permanently damage hair follicles due to constant tension, and in such cases no treatment can revive the follicles, so a transplant may be the only option if the follicles are too damaged. Non-surgical scalp treatments only work on thinning hair, and hair follicles that are still viable but not growing hair. I hope this clarifies things for you.
You're welcome,@@yassingurhan6204
I thank your mother and father for you.Very informative .Thank you for your knowledge, and thank you for becoming a doctor with an extensive background in your field of expertise. I’ve had issues with my hair and it tends to fall out very easily,it does grow back but than continues to fall.A vicious cycle I’m dealing with, and I was thinking of doing the PRP,but after listening to you, I have changed my mind.Thank you .I wish the technique that your doing in California.
Hi Miss Roxxie,
Thank you for your kind words. It's normal to shed 50-100 hairs a day, and as you say, they do grow back. Pattern hair loss is when the shed hair grows back thinner, and/or there is a delay in regrowth. I hope this clarifies things for you.
I'm 30 and have hair loss from PCOS, uncontrolled diabetes and weight issues. I plan to undergo weight loss surgery, and my endocrinologist says that my hair should grow back on its own after complete weight loss since my hormonal panel and diabetes should improve. However, I would like for it to get some extra help in the growth process if it even does. What is a good percentage of how much hair grows back from the procedure you do? I would like to book an appointment once I get my procedure done. Thanks
Hi RLR PLP,
The TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment is primarily for female pattern hair loss, but we do treat cases of PCOS on a case-by-case basis. It is good that you will go through hormone therapy first to see what you can recover for hair growth. We see visible improvement in scalp coverage in over 99% of our female pattern hair loss patients as standalone procedure. Since PCOS also requires additional treatment, and we see fewer patients for PCOS-related hair loss, we can't really give a success rate. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Hi Dr Prasad, My question is regarding the PRP injection procedure specifically: I’m going to a specialist facility for hair loss, paying ~$1k per PRP session. (1) How complicated or sophisticated is the actual injection procedure? I ask because i have had one session so far and the doctor just made one injection on each side of my temples. It was my understanding that they needed to inject in the hair follicle individually? but he said he was injecting along some sort of “plane” and he knew how to do it. It took him all but 5 minutes and I was just a bit surprised i paid such a hefty sum for so little of his time…
(2) Should i be willing to let a nurse practitioner perform the injection procedure, or should I generally opt for the doctor himself? They are trying to book the nurse practitioner to do it but since I am paying so much if it might make a difference I would prefer the doctor? Maybe this procedure is super simple and effectiveness doesn’t generally increase w/ more experience from the person conducting the procedure, in which case I should be fine with the nurse practitioner? Thanks.
Hi KoolA1d,
It doesn't sound right that only your temples were injected, but at your peak hair count, there is about a 100,000 scalp hairs, so injecting individual follicles is not the approach either. You should have a doctor injecting your scalp, but I'm not sure about your doctor's expertise with this.

Hi@@KoolA1d,
I don't use protocols of PRP alone for hair loss, and I haven't seen your scalp, so I can't answer your question. For people with only moderate hair thinning, our TrichoStem Hair Regeneration patients likely need only 1 treatment session, with benefits lasting 3-5 years. Our patients with advanced hair loss get a second treatment 15-24 months after the first. I hope this clarifies things for you.
I had my first PRP session 2 weeks. After 4 days I started shedding an insane amound of hairs. I've been losing my hair for more than a decade and I'm on dutasteride so my overall hairloss is minimal. All the hairs that I'm still shedding 2 weeks after the prp are tiny and extreamly thin hairs almost invisible. I didn't even know that I had so many to lose. Could that be a normal reaction to the prp?
Hi @portishooda,
Depending on how PRP scalp injections are performed, the trauma of the treatment can cause increased hair shedding, similar to shock loss after the trauma of a hair transplant. You can refer to this video about it - th-cam.com/video/kw9QXbQn060/w-d-xo.html
@@AmiyaPrasadMD Thank you for your answer doc! I was already suspecting that it could be shock loss because only tiny and almost colorless hairs are shedding and not the thick healthy ones. It's just that it happened too fast, after only 4 days of the injections.

In addition, with our ACell+PRP treatment TrichoStem Hair Regeneration, thinning or miniaturizing hair does need to shed before thicker hair can grow in its place.

Hi Dr Prasad , I’m currently turning mid 20s soon and recently begun experiencing hair loss for the past 3 months. Noticed my hair falling a lot but only recently my hair begun thinning extensively in the middle part . May i know is the PRP suitable for me or should i head for a FUE hair transplant ? really getting worried because my hair MEANS a lot to me and i really do style my hair a lot ! Would appreciate your advice 🙏!
Hi J C,
I haven't diagnosed the cause of your hair loss, which is needed before recommending any treatment. With that said, I don't administer PRP alone for hair loss, and assuming you are male, ethical hair transplant surgeons generally don't recommend transplants for men under 30, or for diffuse hair thinning. You can refer to these videos about why hair transplants are not advised for men under 30, and the differences of our treatment from PRP alone:

Hey doctor I heard we witness initial shedding during prp and then hair grow back? Right???
Hi Adnan Afzal,
Shed hair does grow back. Pattern hair loss happens when the shed hair grows back thinner, and there is a delay in regrowth. You can refer to this video about it - th-cam.com/video/1B1hz-mTs38/w-d-xo.html
I stop minoxidil after one month use and my hairfall suddenly increase can I go for prp? I don't wanna use minoxidil can prp stop my hairfall
Hi Rutuja,
I don't administer PRP alone for hair loss, but our PRP combination treatment, which only requires 1-2 treatment sessions for 3-5 years of benefit, can completely replace minoxidil, and is a standalone treatment for female pattern hair loss. You can refer to these more recent videos about it:

Hello doctor. I hope you respond to my comment as soon as possible. My situation is very depressing for a 19 year old. Ive been having hair fall since early September this year. Ive been trying many product from supplements, to hair shampoo hair tonics of so many brands nothing works. Ive been to many spas and salons they said the same thing, it might be due to stress and poor diet. But stress now is inevitable for as me as im having online classes. My hair is still falling especially when i wash my hair, i wash my hair everyday and averagely my hair will drop 10-15 strands in each wash. Ive tried scalp detox and mesotherapy but nothing worked. Yes my diet and stress needs to be taken care of but doc, what treatment do you suggest me to do, to stop or reduce my hair fall? will PRP be my last resort?
Hi shaunlovesbread,
Sorry to hear about your problem. It doesn't sound like female pattern hair loss as that occurs with gradual hair thinning over time, not just in a few months. What you have sounds like hair shedding, which is usually temporary, and can be caused by severe stress. Temporary hair shedding usually doesn't require treatment, but you should have a proper diagnosis of the cause. If you can't come and see us for a proper diagnosis, I suggest you see an experienced doctor for a scalp examination so the cause and issue can be confirmed. I hope this helps you.
@@AmiyaPrasadMD i currently have many empty follicles too. What should i do
Hi@@shaunwong2012,
You need to see a doctor for a proper examination of your scalp, and I diagnosis. I hope you understand that I can't diagnose your condition based on a limited written description, and not seeing your scalp at all. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Hello doctor, I have undergone 2 sessions of PRP and my hair has not shown any progress. What I noticed was that they washed my hair intensively with disinfectant at least 3-4 times during the whole session. This was done perhaps to avoid infection on the injected scalp. My question is- is this normal to wash the scalp so many times during this process. Wouldn't this affect the efficiency of the process?
Hi the citizen,
While it is important to disinfect the scalp before the procedure, as well as use topical and injectable anesthetic, it does sound excessive, especially since injecting the scalp takes only a few a minutes.
@@AmiyaPrasadMD Thank you doctor for your response. Yes it indeed seems excessive. Particularly because they disinfected once before the procedure, twice in the middle of the procedure and once at the end. I am concerned because almost all sources suggest to avoid washing scalp after the process because it decreases the efficacy. I feel these excessive disinfectant washes during the process may reduce the efficiency. Do you think this is likely?
Hi@@thecitizen1401,
I hope you understand that since I'm not aware of your doctor's treatment protocol, it would be inappropriate for me to judge the efficacy. You can refer to this video on how our treatment is different from PRP alone - th-cam.com/video/vZAGaAssewY/w-d-xo.html
Do doctors in America do FINASTERIDE injection in the scalp WITH prp? European and South American does GREAT results
Hey doctor one month ago i took a single prp session.but i don't see any improvement ?can you tell me why is this happened?
Hi Istiak Omi,
I don’t administer PRP alone for hair loss because it has a limited effect on hair, usually just short-term hair growth. Also, the number of sessions needed does vary, and the longevity of results is unpredictable. TrichoStem Hair Regeneration is a PRP combination treatment where PRP is the activator of the main ingredient extracellular matrix by ACell. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration is a one-time treatment for most patients, and can last up to 5 years and beyond, depending on the aggressiveness of the hair loss pattern. You don't need repeat injections periodically, and many older TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration patients don’t use maintenance drugs like finasteride, but finasteride is a must for our younger male patients with very early and aggressive hair loss due to high DHT-sensitivity as TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration™ is not a DHT-blocker. PRP injections for hair loss are needed indefinitely. Some TrichoStem Hair Regeneration patients with advanced hair loss get a second treatment 15-24 months after the first which we call the booster, but this is already included in the cost of the treatment plan, so you don’t pay extra for it. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration patients can stop using minoxidil completely, or be weaned off it to prevent a sudden hair shed. You can refer to these videos about the differences between TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration from PRP alone:
th-cam.com/video/vZAGaAssewY/w-d-xo.html
th-cam.com/video/xSMTd9qVwNo/w-d-xo.html
So you do a one time treatment of platelet rich plasma COMBINED with extracellular matrix, and then repeat a year later for advanced cases, and this produces lasting, noticable results in the 2-5 year range?
Hi Affluent Nerd,
Close, but not quite that simple. Extracellular matrix is the main ingredient, and PRP is the activator. Also, not all extracellular matrix+PRP treatments are the same just because the ingredients are the same, as too little ECM and it's just like PRP alone, and too much causes hair shedding. The treatment lasts 3-5 years, or more, but younger men with high DHT-sensitivity will need a DHT-blocker as well as the injection treatment does not block DHT, and it's not a finasteride replacement. Men with high DHT-sensitivity who refuse finasteride will not get the same longevity of results. The second treatment is done 15-24 months after the first. You can refer to these more recent videos about the differences of TrichoStem Hair Regeneration versus other ACell+PRP treatments:

Hello,
I've been dealing with diffuse hair loss for over a year (it is not the first time that I had period of massive hair loss bit never this long!). I been do multiple doctors, nobody really knew to tell me what is the cause, the blood tests seemed normal. My current doctor said is ETellogen probably from chronic stress. I have been doing treatments prior as well with topical treatments and shampoos, vitamins and my hair loss wasnt / isn't stopping. I did my 4th PRP (the first 2 were 2 weeks apart then a month ) my hair is still falling. I don't know what else could I do, the doctor said I need at least 4 more sessions. I am just about to give up and let it be. I don't have an understanding to what is happening to my hair and why. What would be your advise? (I don't have bald spots, my hair falls from everywhere, is more evident in the front and on the sides, but is thinned on the back and on the top too). I hope you will see this, Thank you!
Hi Paula Dragos,
Sorry to hear about your problem. Pattern hair loss does not come and go, but it is progressive hair thinning, not sudden hair shedding. It may be chronic telogen effluvium, but that doesn't require treatment, but rather controlling or resolving the stress that triggers it. It is possible to have have concurrent pattern hair loss and telogen effluvium, but I would have to examine your scalp before I can recommend specific treatments. I hope this helps you.
@@AmiyaPrasadMD Thank you so much for your reply! I am asking just one more reply of your time, and even if you wont be able to answer i am still grateful for the prior one! I am not from the States and the specialists in hair care and treatment here are very few, and even though I looked for the most qualified they didn't tell me what you just mentioned. I am 25 yo. How would I know if is chronic ET or if is progressive premature thinning? is there a way I could find if my doctor won't be able to tell me? if they are both (or just the pattern loss) is there something I could do besides trying out topicals, vitamins and PRP. Are these helping in anyway? (mixed with targeting the stress factor). should I expect my hair to thin out more and more until is very little left? Thank you again for reading me
Hi@@verryberrymerry,
Female pattern hair loss is challenging to diagnose, but scalp biopsies can confirm it. Hair thinning can also be identified using microscopic scalp examination. You can refer to these videos on how we diagnose and treat female pattern hair loss:

Hi doc. which have better results for stimulating hair growth . Minoxidil or PRP?
Hi Abdullah elAttar,
Minoxidil usually only stimulates fine hair growth, which doesn't grow long. Minoxidil's main effect is to delay the hair shedding cycle, and extend the hair growth cycle so you appear to have more hair on your head. You will have to use it daily to sustain these effects, but these effects can also decrease with time even if you use it daily.
I don’t administer PRP alone for hair loss because it has a limited effect on hair, usually just short-term hair growth. Also, the number of sessions needed does vary, and the longevity of results is unpredictable.

I wish I had your hair Doctor 🤣
I'm doing monthly is that good?
So far Doc I got 2000 gratfs in front of my head with a hairline which included 2 PRP treatment done by FUE with the robotic system for 9K flat zero percent intrest. Do you think it was a good deal? Or too much? I would appreciate it if you response. My name is Rudy tks Doc..
Hi@@hammerdown2231,
My general opinion on price is that a well-performed procedure saves you money in the long run. I generally don't perform FUEs because they produce less overall grafts, some grafts are still prone to thinning, and they have a higher rate of graft damage (transection) due to the individual graft harvesting process. I also don't perform PRP alone for hair loss because of the multiple treatment sessions for results that are not good, or last as long as ours which only needs 1-2 treatments that can last 3-5 years. I hope this helps you.
Hi Dr Prasad ! I am a doctor practicing aesthetic medicine,kindly tell me how i can get Acell ? I am from Pakistan ! Looking forward for your reply ! Thankyou
Hi Zeeshankhan 222328,
ACell is the name of the company, but getting it to work for hair loss is a different story altogether as too much causes hair shedding, and too little makes it no different from PRP alone. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Doctor what should i do to stop my immediate hair fall which is increasing day by day
Hi Tawsif Mahmud,
Your first need to have the cause of your hair loss diagnosed, as pattern hair loss is progressive hair thinning, not rapid hair shedding.

Hey Doctor, I don’t have any hair loss but can I still use do the prp/acell treatment just to maintain it?
Hi Eric Sedique,
Pattern hair loss is a genetic condition hardwired into the DNA, so it's not something that can be prevented. If you don't have signs of pattern hair loss, preventive treatment isn't practical. I hope this clarifies things for you.
@@AmiyaPrasadMD what about telogen effluvium? would prp help grow back the hair any faster or will the hair still grow back at the same rate?
Hi@@fashionsewingstuff8182,
Telogen effluvium doesn't require treatment for shed hair to grow back. I only advise treatment for telogen effluvium if there is concurrent pattern hair loss. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Is it only in America. You have no surgeries around the uk or Europe?
Hi daniel ahmed,
We don't currently offer the treatment in Europe, but we do have many patients from around the continent coming to the US for treatment (under normal travel conditions). Since it is a non-surgical treatment with little to no recovery time, and in many cases no additional treatment, you don't need an extended stay in the US. Many patients actually get back on the plane home the same day as treatment, but I don't recommend this for everyone as it is dependent on general health condition and age. Some patients with advanced hair loss may get a second treatment 15-24 months after the first, and results for international patients are monitored through Skype, FaceTime, or email follow up.
Hi sir. I have visited the doctor 👨⚕️ here and he said he will do 9 sessions at once on the same day same time ...... so i was confused 🤷🏻♂️ is it ok to do all 9 sessions at once ???? Waiting for ur reply ???? With appreciation 👍👍👍
Hi nawaf zahir,
Although I don't administer PRP alone for hair loss treatment, having 9 sessions at once does not sound right, or particularly useful. I suggest you get a second opinion from a different doctor in your area if you are determined to have have PRP injections for hair loss. You can refer to this video about how TrichoStem Hair Regeneration is different from PRP alone, and the results in my videos are only from a single treatment session that can last 3-5 years, but some patients where indicated have two sessions, but separated by 15-24 months - th-cam.com/video/vZAGaAssewY/w-d-xo.html
Going to have u walking around with a Peyton Manning head lol
If we do prp even tho the hairloss is not from gentics so we have to do prp sessions for ever ?
Hi abhi,
PRP is used to treat genetic pattern hair loss, so I'm not sure what other type of hair loss you are looking to treat. PRP alone for genetic pattern hair loss is used indefinitely, which is one of the reasons why I don't administer PRP alone to treat pattern hair loss.

Hi Amna Khan,
The genes for pattern hair loss are hardwired into the DNA, so it's not something that can be completely cured or stopped.

You can refer to this video about it - th-cam.com/video/B035EcHqllY/w-d-xo.html
Doesn’t that cell prp treatment have risks of rejection or causing tumors, and if so, how high are the risks?
Hi Gustavo Cabrera,
We have been treating people with ACell+PRP since 2011, which is longer, and with more patients treated than any other practice, and this has not occurred in any of our patients. I would not use a treatment on my patients that carries unnecessary risks. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Hi my name is thejus iam 21 year old now iam facing large hair loss will u please give any suggestion to stop my hair loss
Hi Thejus 9446550924,
Sorry to hear about your problem. I am assuming you are male. Male pattern hair loss is not cured or stopped, but it can be managed. It does need a proper diagnosis from a doctor before you start treatment. If you have male pattern hair loss starting in your 20s or younger, you are likely highly DHT-sensitive, and need a DHT-blocker like finasteride to control it, and slow hair thinning. The TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment featured in the video can thicken thinning hair, and stimulate growth from dormant hair follicles, but it cannot block DHT-formation. You can refer to these videos about the importance of blocking DHT in young men with male pattern hair loss, and how we can go beyond DHT blockers alone to increase hair thickness and scalp coverage:

How to get your product ???
Hi Ressources Jhb,
The TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment has to be done in one of our offices in the US as it is a customized formulation based on a patient's individual hair loss factors, and it also requires PRP to be prepared from drawing your blood, so the treatment can't be shipped to be done somewhere else.

If you'd like to have the TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment, you'd have to come to one of our offices in the US. Since it is a non-surgical treatment with little to no recovery time, and in many cases no additional treatment, you don't need an extended stay in the US. Many patients actually get back on the plane home the same day as treatment, but I don't recommend this for everyone as it is dependent on general health condition and age. Some patients with advanced hair loss may get a second treatment 15-24 months after the first, and results for international patients are monitored through Skype, FaceTime, or email follow up. I hope this clarifies things for you.
I am suffering from pattern hair loss. can you please suggest me any any natural way, food or exercise to regrow hair or reduce hair loss? I dnt want to undergo any surgery or operation and in Bangladesh, they are not available.
i am 23 years old btw.
Hi Maaroof Tawheed,
I suggest you see a local doctor for a proper diagnosis for male pattern hair loss, and possibly start with a prescription DHT-blocker like finasteride. If you have male pattern hair loss starting in your 20s or younger, you are likely highly DHT-sensitive, and need a DHT-blocker like finasteride to control it, and slow hair thinning. The TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment can thicken thinning hair, and stimulate growth from dormant hair follicles, but it cannot block DHT-formation. There is no food or natural equivalent for a reliable DHT-blocker, especially if you are young with high sensitivity. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Sound very reasonable. I am actually receiving PRP on my scalp. But my question is how to do this PRP with ECM.
Hi Anis Manzoor,
ECM with PRP is not easy to mix formulate, which is why not all these treatments work the same way. I made some videos explaining the differences in these treatments:

@@AmiyaPrasadMD please also let me know how can I contact u personally
so you only need 1 session of this and your good to go?
Hi Awesome Baggs,
Most of my patients shown in the videos only have one treatment session of TrichoStem Hair Regeneration. However, a second booster treatment is already included in the cost of the standard treatment plan, which is performed 15-24 months after the first to thicken fine hair growth that was stimulated from the first treatment. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Sir I start prp and I go with one session I used many doctors and still my hair fall not stop what can I do pls help me sir.
Hi Anshika Singh,
I don’t administer PRP alone for hair loss because it has a limited effect on hair, usually just short-term hair growth. Also, the number of sessions needed does vary, and the longevity of results is unpredictable. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration is a PRP combination treatment where PRP is the activator of the main ingredient extracellular matrix by ACell. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration is a one-time treatment for most patients, and can last up to 5 years and beyond, depending on the aggressiveness of the hair loss pattern. You don't need repeat injections periodically, and many older TrichoStem™Hair Regeneration patients don’t use maintenance drugs like finasteride, but finasteride is a must for our younger male patients with very early and aggressive hair loss due to high DHT-sensitivity as TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration is not a DHT-blocker. PRP injections for hair loss are needed indefinitely. Some TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration patients with advanced hair loss get a second treatment 15-24 months after the first which we call the booster, but this is already included in the cost of the treatment plan, so you don’t pay extra for it. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration patients can stop using minoxidil completely, or be weaned off it to prevent a sudden hair shed. You can refer to these videos about the differences between TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration from PRP alone:

you mean prp alone cannot stop genetic hair loss so we should take fenestaride with prp plzzz reply me soon
Hi mohamad goni,
Pattern hair loss is managed, not completely stopped or cured. PRP alone may stimulate short-term hair growth, but finasteride is needed to block DHT in men sensitive to it to slow hair thinning. The results shown in my videos are not from PRP alone, but from a PRP combination treatment. You can refer to these videos about the differences between TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration from PRP alone:

Hi @@mohamadgoni4295,
Like I said previously, pattern hair loss cannot be completely stopped or cured, but it can be managed. That said, the TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment does make thinning hair grow back thicker.
The cost of the TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment varies with the extent of treatment needed. Cost of the treatment plan also includes the second booster treatment, if needed in advanced hair loss cases, as well regular follow ups to monitor your progress, either in our offices or through Skype, FaceTime or email. At its full cost, TrichoStem Hair Regeneration is priced at about half of a single FUT hair transplant, or about a third of an FUE transplant performed in the US. You can contact our offices or our websites for a price range.

Does PRP/your process help in anyway with Telogen Effluvium
or chronic Telogen Effluvium ?
Hi Eden BH,
The TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment is for thickening progressively thinning hair due to pattern hair loss, not temporary hair shedding. Telogen effluvium usually doesn't require medical treatment for shed hair to grow back. You can refer to this video about it - th-cam.com/video/wuYmEGj_Wyg/w-d-xo.html
Do prp work with damage caused by relaxer, in terms of thickness of the hair ?
Hi Anjani Dubey,
PRP alone won't thicken hair that has thinned due to chemical damage. We do approach this problem with ACell+PRP on a case-by-case basis, with some examples shown in this video - th-cam.com/video/7_g7TC59YUI/w-d-xo.html

Hi Doctor, thank you for your information. I would like to know if your treatment works for women over 60. I had lots of hairs and started losing them almost 30 years ago. It wasn’t obvious until now. I don’t lose a lot of hair at once but I guess whatever I am losing, doesn’t grow back. I used Rogain a few years back, but I got headaches and couldn’t countine.

Also do you have any Drs in Los Angeles. I would appreciate your advise.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hi Guity Shaghaghi,

will prp with acell work with alopecia areata and stop hair fall and how many sessions will needed if yes..
Hi swati goyal,
We do treat people with alopecia areata with TrichoStem Hair Regeneration, but this is on a case-by-case basis as it's primarily a treatment for pattern hair loss. While the treatment can help with hair growth and thickening thinning hair, it does not stop attack of the immune system on your body. While pattern hair loss cases need 1-2 treatments that can last 3-5 years or beyond, the unpredictability of alopecia areata makes the treatment protocol and longevity of treatment also unpredictable. I hope this clarifies things for you.
@@AmiyaPrasadMD thanks for replying
here I have discussed about my options with one of the hair transplant surgeon. he is saying take 5 session of plan prp and 1 prp with acell. but I am not convinced with his explanation. I have diffuse thinning all over the head and 2 or 3 small patches. so what do u suggest in my case that what will give good results prp or prp with acell. and how many sessions on each will require. and yes I know its a immune system response and we can not guarantee that when immune system will attack again. but still if I want to go for this treatment what will be the best

Hi Giovanni Sanchez,
I see patients all the time who have had injections of PRP alone elsewhere, and were frustrated with treatment. I don't treat pattern hair loss with PRP alone, but rather a combination treatment. Our TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment was developed to improve surgical hair transplants, so I've been performing non-surgical hair restoration for 10 years, and surgical hair transplants for over 20 years. While I'm not disparaging your doctor, you can ask them about how long they've performed PRP injections for hair loss, and about their previous hair restoration experience prior to performing PRP injections. I hope this clarifies things for you.

It's not clear whether you are male or female as causes of hair loss are different among men and women. However, Biotin is for hair growth and health, not for treatment of pattern hair loss which is genetic hair thinning.

@@AmiyaPrasadMD does finasteride affect male sexual health as cautioned by many doctors?
Hi@@Kidsplayhouse-k7s,
The chances of sexual side effects from finasteride are extremely low, at about 2% of patients. There are much more common causes of sexual dysfunction in men such as excessive alcohol intake, smoking, lack of sleep, stress, and lack of exercise. Finasteride is a prescription drug, so if many doctors actually advise against it, it wouldn't be the most popular pattern hair loss drug in the world. I hope this clarifies things for you.

Bro prp se mere hair regrow ho skte hai ?
Hi Asif Ali,
I don’t administer PRP alone for hair loss because it has a limited effect on hair, usually just short-term hair growth. Also, the number of sessions needed does vary, and the longevity of results is unpredictable. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration is a PRP combination treatment where PRP is the activator of the main ingredient extracellular matrix by ACell. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration is a one-time treatment for most patients, and can last up to 5 years and beyond, depending on the aggressiveness of the hair loss pattern. You don't need repeat injections periodically, and many older TrichoStem™Hair Regeneration patients don’t use maintenance drugs like finasteride, but finasteride is a must for our younger male patients with very early and aggressive hair loss due to high DHT-sensitivity as TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration is not a DHT-blocker. PRP injections for hair loss are needed indefinitely. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration patients can stop using minoxidil completely, or be weaned off it to prevent a sudden hair shed.

Hello, Doctor. I just did my first session of PRP. The assistant nurse refrigerated my PRP for about 1.5 hours before injection. Does it affect the effect?
Hi Kwik Way,
The healing and growth factors of PRP that help heal cuts are active at normal body temperature, so I don't see the purpose of cooling PRP prior to treatment. I don't see any benefit to cooling, but you can ask your practitioner why they did it. I hope this helps you.
Hey what was your result after prp?
Hello, I got PRP 12 months ago and my hairloss is a lot worse than before. It helped only after 3 months for 2 months (thickened hair) and then everything fell out. Even my freshly transplanted hair fell although I have no donor minaturization! I am way worse off than before! What can I do? I get strong sides from Finasteride, Minoxidil, RU, CB and Bimaroprost

PRP injections for hair loss are needed indefinitely. Some TrichoStem Hair Regeneration patients with advanced hair loss get a second treatment 15-24 months after the first which we call the booster, but this is already included in the cost of the treatment plan, so you don’t pay extra for it. TrichoStem™ Hair Regeneration patients can stop using minoxidil completely, or be weaned off it to prevent a sudden hair shed.

Hello doctor!my doctor said that prp can delay the process of your hairfall and can regrow to some extent but eventually i will lose them,my hair is still goodenough only hairline started receedind! What do you say about that?
Hello doctor. Is there any chace where i can get hair regeneration for my first stage in India ? Should i go for prp if nothing better is available
Hi Shreyans Sethia,
Sorry, but the TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment has to be done in one of our offices in the US. I think it's more important that you have your hair loss properly diagnosed by a local doctor, and get a prescription for finasteride to slow hair thinning. If you have male pattern hair loss starting in your 20s or younger, you are likely highly DHT-sensitive, and need a DHT-blocker like finasteride. The TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment can thicken thinning hair, and stimulate growth from dormant hair follicles, but it cannot block DHT-formation. PRP often requires multiple and constant treatments for limited hair growth, which doesn't last long-term. I hope this clarifies things for you.
I am 27 years old and I suffer from light hair . Can prp return my hair thicker? And if I keep on prp ,do you keep my hair the same?

Pattern hair loss is a genetic condition, and it is progressive, so it can't be cured, but it can be managed so you have as much hair coverage as possible, for as long possible. I hope this clarifies things for you.

Can you recommend a surgery for hair loss in the UK?
Hi Dontdalla,
Sorry, I would have to examine a scalp first before I even recommend surgery be done. You can refer to this recent video about how most of my patients actually avoid hair transplant surgery - th-cam.com/video/Zi6Bxog9_SE/w-d-xo.html
Hello dr I've had a hair loss for a two years now I checked with a dr and he said I have 2 choices PRP or mesotherapy each two weak 1 session what do you think I should do.
Hope you reply
Thank you very much
@@AmiyaPrasadMD thanks but I'm not from the US, the dr I went to said he has mesotherapy so after sbT you said about PRP I'll go with mesotherapy it sounds much better
Thanks for replying I really appreciated ur advise
Hi@@azizouamane4331,
While I don't administer PRP alone because I have a better treatment for pattern hair loss, PRP is proven to stimulate hair growth, while vitamin injections such as mesotherapy are not a proven treatment. You can refer to these videos about the evidence of PRP alone to promote hair growth:

Hi Hammer down,
You look young in your picture. How old were you at the time of the transplant? This makes a big difference if you are too young for a hair transplant.
@@AmiyaPrasadMD I'm 39
@@AmiyaPrasadMD I just got it this passed Saturday with some PRP transplant
I see@@hammerdown2231. That's a good age to have a hair transplant. Many men commenting here have it in their 20s, which is strongly advised against.

Hi Ann Blessy,
It depends on who is performing the scalp injection, and the protocol they follow. We use topical and injectable anesthetic prior to the TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment. You can watch this video about how we perform scalp injections without pain - th-cam.com/video/5_8_miiOxJk/w-d-xo.html

Hi monib ansari,
PRP alone does not stop hair from shedding, nor does it slow hair thinning due to pattern hair loss. I don’t administer PRP alone for hair loss because it has a limited effect on hair, usually just short-term hair growth. Also, the number of sessions needed does vary, and the longevity of results is unpredictable. Hair Regeneration is a PRP combination treatment where PRP is the activator of the main ingredient extracellular matrix by ACell.

Same here I have lost alot of hair with PRP, Is it normal?
Did it get better?
I'm going to get my first treatment in 2 weeks at orlando hair restoration. He said once a year. Is prp only temporary or if i go once a year will i maintain? You said your prp with a matrix is only once every 5 years? You should open a clinic in Orlando. The countries fastest growing city.. Im wondering the cost difference and i would need to travel to New York
Hi Christopher Hughes,
The protocols for PRP alone are usually one injection treatment every 1-3 months in the first year. Some practices claim once a year for maintenance, only to recommend more treatments for better results. We do have some advanced hair loss patients get a second treatment 15-24 months after the first, but 2 treatments is the upper limit for the 3-5 year effectiveness, and there is no additional charge for the second or booster treatment. The cost of our treatment also includes regular follow ups to monitor your progress, but since you are from out of state, this can be done through email, Skype, or Facetime. I hope this clarifies things for you.
I'm 30 now and back when I was 18 I had chemo therapy and I thought my hair would come back but didn't. I tried everything except fue transplant.
Hi Deano Al,
Sorry to hear about your problem. While hair that sheds due to chemotherapy normally grows back, you may have developed a concurrent issue at some point during your recovery. Has your hair loss issue already been diagnosed?
@@AmiyaPrasadMD not properly because everyone seems not to care I mean I used. A medicine that helps to bring hair which was like the rogain of tablets but my oncologist told me to stop because it effects my white bloods cells. I'm in pain. I had chemo for 6 month then remission ever since. I feel robed.

does the prp work on females to
Hi +houstone713HTX,
I don’t administer PRP alone for hair loss because it has a limited effect on hair, usually just short-term hair growth. However, the Hair Regeneration is a PRP combination treatment does work on 99% of female pattern hair loss cases. Hair Regeneration has PRP as the activator of the main ingredient extracellular matrix by ACell. Hair Regeneration is a one-time treatment that so far has lasted over 5 years in our original patients treated over 5 years ago, and is still working for them. PRP injections for hair loss may be needed for life. Most female pattern hair loss patients can't have a hair transplant due to close proximity of existing hair from a diffuse hair thinning pattern. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Hi@Madhiya Suleman,
Sorry, to hear that. PRP or a treatment like Hair Regeneration are used to treat pattern hair loss, while hair loss due to a hormonal imbalance is usually treated first through hormone therapy. It is possible you have concurrent pattern hair loss, but this needs to be confirmed with scalp biopsies in women.

Weekly treatments is a money grab from a conman. I’ve never spoken with nor heard a doctor recommend 10 weekly injections.
Hi Steve Wise,
I didn't hear about 10 weekly injections either until I saw this question submitted. Even 10 monthly injections of PRP alone is questionable. The results of my patients shown in the video are from only 1 treatment session of our PRP combination treatment, although some patients get a second booster treatment 15-24 months after the first, with no additional charge as we charge for the full treatment plan. Results of our treatment last 3-5 years, or even more. I hope this clarifies things for you.
@@AmiyaPrasadMD Thanks for the response. As for once a month for 10 months, I’ve never heard of that either, and frankly it’s a scam. The industry is unregulated in any way and some physicians and small pop up clinics are unethical. Lastly, can you please do a video about Exosomes, as that’s the latest and greatest.
My 17 year old is rapidly losing his hair and yesterday we did a Zoom with a doctor in greater Seattle who used to extoll the virtues of ACell and suddenly pivoted to exosomes and treatment costs are significantly greater. Some doctors I watch and respect on TH-cam said exosomes are unproven in studies despite the FDA approval and patients are guinea pigs.
Hi@@stevewise1656,
I don't see any advantages of exosomes over our treatment that has had such a high success rate since 2011, with many doctors trying to replicate our results, and our treatment protocol. I am keeping an eye on exosome technology, and will provide updates if I see promise with it. I hope this helps you.
@@AmiyaPrasadMD Yes, this is very helpful!
কোন কাজ হয় না৷
Stem cells! Except you can't call it stem cells 😉
Hi stealthcomp14,
PRP does contain some of your own stem cells. Our TrichoStem Hair Regeneration treatment does stimulate the body to produce its own stem cells called progenitor cells, which helps in renewing a healthier hair growth cycle so thinning hair grows back thicker. I hope this clarifies things for you.
