PRP THERAPY FOR MEN AND WOMEN

his is a 45 year old man who is not on finasteride. We performed PRP with ACell and no other treatments were applied. The patient noted an increase in overall density along with more styling options from his PRP result. We estimated that the patient experienced a 25% improvement which was subsequently verified with cross sectional tricometry measurements. It is important to note that improvements with many PRP results are not relegated to visual improvements alone as the patient will note an improvement to how the hair feels. Miniaturized hairs will become thicker in diameter, or more “terminal”. Note that the part line of this patient has been narrowed and hair on either side of the part are stronger and of thicker caliber.

This patient is a 21 year old male college student that was showing early onset MPB. He was started on finasteride and shortly after received a treatment of PRP with ACell. The PRP results showing in these three photos is one year later and exhibits greater than average thickening both throughout the top of his scalp and, more impressively, through the hairline region as well. There is no doubt that the PRP treatment with ACell enhanced and improved the overall result normally seen with Propecia alone.

This patient is a 64 year old male that had been on finasteride for over ten years prior to visiting Haircenter. A PRP treatment, augmented with Acell, was administered and he returned one year later with impressive improvements throughout. His PRP results showed the top of his scalp was thicker with more terminal hairs than before the treatment.  He then elected to have a second treatment and is shown 18 months later with additional obvious improvements to his once thinned scalp. More hairs have thickened and the part line is more narrow. The crown also is markedly improved with both coverage and density from these final PRP results. The patient made no changes to his medical regimen during this time and is continuing to enjoy the benefits of PRP with Acell from Dr. Cooley.

This 61 year old patient came to see Dr. Cooley in 2011 to discuss options to address his crown. He had already been taking dutasteride for several years so his hair loss had not only stabilized but it had slightly reversed per the patient’s testimony. Dr. Cooley suggested one treatment of PRP with ACell to try for a non-surgical improvement for the patient’s crown. The patient returned six months later to report a positive response that included more hair in the central crown and the overall diameter of the crown had been reduced, indicating miniaturized hairs on the outside edges of the crown were also thickening. The patient departed and was not to be heard from for another three and a half years. When he did finally return there was substantial hair remaining from the original PRP results. These PRP results are from only one treatment.

This 21 year old patient had already been taking finasteride for two years prior to his initial visit with Dr. Cooley so he already had a strong start to fighting his hair loss. After seeing PRP results from Dr. Cooley and discussion all possible options it was agreed upon that PRP with ACell was the best course of action prior to any surgical considerations. As seen in photos there is thickening and lengthening of miniaturized hairs at the hairline for his PRP results.
