Regular Member Billdet6 Posted March 31, 2016 Regular Member Share Posted March 31, 2016 Hi everyone I had a hairtransplant from Shapiro medical in 2008 and 2010 and the results had been good. The only problem now is that the transplanted hair is starting to thin out. My doctor is giving me an option of having prp with acell done. I do not know much about this and was wondering what your opinions would be on this ? I know that this wouldn't be against transplanted hair. I am thinning on the top of my head and am 34 years old. I can post pictures of that will help. I have read online that this has helped with patients just starting to experience thinning but would it work for transplanted hair as well?

Regular Member Billdet6 Posted March 31, 2016 Author Regular Member Share Posted March 31, 2016 Also dr Shapiro has said that I have dermatioligical alopecia and male pattern baldness of course. I had been thinning for 15 years and I am about 34. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member ontop Posted March 31, 2016 Senior Member Share Posted March 31, 2016 Forgive me for asking but what is dermatioligical alopecia? Are you not on finestride? Yep you could post pictures & maybe some members or Drs can help out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member JON86 Posted March 31, 2016 Senior Member Share Posted March 31, 2016 If you want to learn about acell research Dr. Cooley. He has been doing extensive testing on this for years. Here is a link to an old post but there is a lot more information by him about this topic on this forum. http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/169582-dr-cooley-2-612-grafts-hairline-5-months.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Billdet6 Posted March 31, 2016 Author Regular Member Share Posted March 31, 2016 THanks for the reply guys. I have posted some pics on my profile Hair Restoration Social Network ? Community for and by Hair Loss Patients - Billdet6's Profile @ontop I do not know the exact and a HT Dr. could probably explain it better than I. But, from my understanding is that it is the case where your transplanted hair fail to grow in a certain area. That is what My Dr. beleives is happening to me in the front of my hairline. That was transplanted hair before and it is getting very thin now =/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
