Does PRP enhance recovery after surgery?
After experiencing a cosmetic surgery operation, is it possible to use Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) to possibly quicken the healing process and decrease swelling?

Is this a typical side effect of the procedure?
I underwent my first PRP hair treatment approximately 13 days ago, and I'm currently experiencing swelling around and under my eyes. Is this a typical side effect of the procedure? I received my first PRP hair treatment 13 days ago. During the procedure, the doctor administered anesthesia in the form of a ring and made multiple PRP injections in the crown area. On the second day, I experienced pain in the treated area. I initially tried Tylenol, but it didn't provide relief, so I took one 400 mg Advil pill. Three days ago, I noticed significant swelling on my forehead (please refer to the attached photos), and I took 60 mg of prednisone. In the evening, I observed that the swelling had shifted to my nose bridge and the area around my eyes. Is this a normal reaction, and what might be the cause? Thank you for your assistance.

I've been undergoing successful immunotherapy for lung cancer, receiving a total of seven Pembrlizumab treatments. I'm wondering if it's safe to consider PRP treatment for both my hair and face to boost my self-esteem. I appreciate your attention to my query and look forward to your response.

Could the use of steroids for bodybuilding potentially impact the health and growth of my transplanted hair?
I'm 28 years old and have been dealing with male pattern baldness (MPB), resulting in significant hair loss on the top of my head. It's been a month since I had a hair transplant, and the transplanted hair was taken from the donor area, which is DHT-resistant. I'm considering using steroids for bodybuilding, but I'm concerned about their potential impact on my transplanted hair. The transplantation covered the entire upper head area, including the crown.

Is it possible for low-dose Naltrexone to lead to hair loss in women?
I began experiencing hair loss from my eyebrows. All of my blood tests have yielded normal results, and I've received diagnoses from two dermatologists attributing it to stress-induced telogen effluvium (TE) in conjunction with seborrheic dermatitis. The latter condition is currently under treatment and has improved to a very mild state. Alongside the recommended PRP therapy, I'm contemplating the use of LDN (low-dose naltrexone). Some sources suggest it may be beneficial for certain types of alopecia and also for general immune function, which is often linked to various forms of hair loss. However, I've come across patient accounts reporting hair loss after starting LDN. I'm concerned about the potential risk of LDN exacerbating my hair loss.

Is it safe to apply Betnovate scalp cream three weeks after an FUE procedure to help reduce redness?
Since Betnovate is a steroid cream, I'm uncertain whether it might have any effect on the success rate of the FUE procedure.

Are there surgical procedures that can increase hair thickness?
Hello! I have extremely fine hair, and I have a distinctive heart-shaped hairline on my forehead with sparse hair coverage. I'm not sure how to describe it more precisely. My hair also tends to shed frequently. Is there a surgical procedure that can enhance the fullness and thickness of my hair? Furthermore, when I part my hair down the middle, particularly at the crown, it appears noticeably thin. I'm not interested in using extensions; my goal is to make my natural hair look more voluminous, as it currently appears very flat. Thank you in advance for any advice you can provide!

Could PRP be effective in treating my under-eye bags? I'm exhausted from constantly appearing tired!
Can PRP assist in reducing my under-eye circles? If it's a viable option, I'd like to find a specialist nearby. If PRP isn't suitable, what alternative treatments would you recommend? I understand that surgery may be a long-term solution, but could you provide an estimate of the cost?

How much time does it typically take for PRP to stimulate hair regrowth?
I'm a 21-year-old woman, and I had my first PRP treatment on February 28, 2018. I've completed five sessions so far and am scheduled for my sixth one on July 19. However, I haven't noticed any new hair growth on my scalp yet. People have mentioned that results may become visible after several months, but I can honestly say that I haven't seen any new hair. Can you please provide some insight into how long it typically takes for PRP to regrow hair? PRP is my last hope for addressing my hair problems, and I'm eager to understand the timeline for potential results.

I have thin skin around my eyes. What can I do to address this issue and improve the condition?
Hello, I'm just 30 years old, and I have extremely thin skin around my eyes, especially in the corners. It has significantly affected my self-esteem. I attempted fillers, but they didn't provide the desired results. I believe I need a solution that can thicken the skin in this area. My skin is hollow, and the issue is very close to my eyes, making it challenging for fillers to address. Can you please advise if fat grafting or PRP could be viable options in this situation? Thank you so much for your help. :(
