    I experienced horrible hair loss as well though i’m still pretty young. I have done 3 sessions of PRP, and it’s been working so well with me. My hair stopped falling out after the second treatment, and it is a lot stronger now with a lot of new hair growing! The only difference is my doctor has a special tool (like a big gun with small needles) to inject the plasma into my head, so it’s not done manually with a syringe like the one here, which definitely makes the whole process a lot less painful. I always describe it like getting tattooed, but on the head cause the machine works kinda similarly to a tattoo gun. Lol. 😂 if price isn’t an issue, i’d definitely recommend PRP. The only downside is this treatment doesn’t give you permanent result, and depending on your hair, you might have to keep doing it though not every month (prob once a year or once every 6 months) as a maintenance.

      Have you tried minoxidil? I knoow its advertised only for males but if your female indentifying and experience hair loss, I highly recommend!! Its the most substainable option for treating hair loss imo.

    I agree that hair loss for women is not take about enough. I hope this works for you. I've had two bouts of it and it is traumatic. I had steroid injections by my dermatologist that were covered by insurance and they really helped. I think one episode was brought on by going on a keto diet and the other by Covid.

      Try microneedling instead. PRP doesn't have much evidence.

  • @MintakaSaiph
    @MintakaSaiph 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I had it along with microneedling and I think that it helped. It was $250 for that small area but $600 for the full temple and forehead. But I’ve seen some Groupons.
    The spot has filled in considerably. I was also surprised that the laser helmet and Vegamour CBD serum also helped.

    I have always had fine thin hair. My scalp can be seen through in some areas. When I was younger people (other women) used to bully me about my thin ponytail 😔
    I am now 43 and just last week I finished my 4th PRP treatment. The doctor also prescribed a ointment with Rogaine at 7% and other meds that are supposed to be helpful.
    I hope this works; but honestly I am skeptical as the "true" hair loss cause is not really known 😕

    • @preciousmourning8310
      @preciousmourning8310 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Rogaine has really good evidence. I'd say you're right to be skeptical of PRP, it doesn't have much good evidence but scalp microneedling does have some.

    I started loosing my hair when I was 15 ( i'm now 23 ) i did a lot of treatments and i found that treating my depression had the biggest impact on my hair. I continue using special shampoos and conditionner and seasonal topical treatments for maintenance. However, I don't want to do PRP because of the price and i know the guilt and sadness that i would feel after i get it done and one of my hairs falls (which i know is normal to have shedding ). It's emotionally tiresome to have to deal with hairloss.

    • @preciousmourning8310
      @preciousmourning8310 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I agree, it's very emotionally tiring. I've read there isn't great evidence for PRP but there's pretty good evidence for microneedling, which luckily is cheaper than the typical PRP which includes microneedling. I've been trying rogaine but it's hard to be consistent. I get it a lot near my temples.

    While some treatments might help them amount if hair loss even the type keyword alopecia you might be paying for something that wont work. Regain works but only in saving what you have moment you stop hair gets loss. Also anxiety ed chronic illnesses immune issues birth allot of things effect hair. Even diet and your vitamins. Thats part of the big picture people tend to skip when showing trendy treatments.

    I had this procedure done on my scalp yesterday with an RN nurse and paid only $450 for probably 50 injections. It didn't hurt at first, but the last 15ish injections were almost unbearable! I see this video she is using an ice pack on her scalp :( You are NOT SUPPOSE to do this!
    Also, you should avoid taking anti-inflammatory medications like Advil (ibuprofen) for at least two weeks before and after a Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injection because they can interfere with the healing process and the procedure's outcome. This girl's dermatologist should have told her this!
