ArochaAngel4247 Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 This woman came in to Dr. Arocha with extensive female pattern ludwig III thinning. She wanted a PRP treatment. Dr. Arocha recommended a high-powered LaserCap Pro for 30 minutes every other day in addition to a PRP session and 5% Rogaine. The after images are showing her results at her follow up visit at 17 months after her initial PRP treatment. She has only had one PRP treatment.

Senior Member Mycroft Posted February 14, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted February 14, 2020 Amazing non-surgical improvement. I'm sure she's thrilled. People tend to dismiss the non-surgical options and I think that's a mistake, especially for anyone with more diffuse thinning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She has had a fabulous result - and with just one PRP treatment. Doc educates each patient on the best treatment option for them - whether it's surgical or non-surgical. There are a lot of docs out there who operate under a surgery-first approach. 1 Representative and Patient Educator for: Dr. Bernardino A. Arocha, Coalition Member.

Valued Contributor Steeeve Posted February 22, 2020 Valued Contributor Share Posted February 22, 2020 I echo Mycroft’s statements completely. The first thing I thought when I saw this post was that it amazes me that there are people who still doubt the efficacy of PRP and laser treatment. This result from the treatments you listed gave the patient a night and day result without the need for a hair transplant. I will say that it 100% seems to be reliant on the doctor administering it and that there seems to be few doctors utilizing it correctly if they do it at all.

Dr. Arocha was very fortunate to have been able to train with an ISHRS-approved fellowship in hair restoration surgery. Dr. Arocha's focus has been 100% to the surgical and non-surgical treatment of hair loss. Our PRP program has been developed and fine-tuned over the past decade. 1 Representative and Patient Educator for: Dr. Bernardino A. Arocha, Coalition Member.
