Our patient suffered from Discoid Lupus and experienced over 15 areas hair loss throughout the top of her scalp. Additionally, she was developing a linear scar in her forehead, which also effect patients with this skin disease.
The patient was treated with traditional therapy for 2 years with steroid injections, without results, prior to referral to our clinic. Her skin was becoming thinner and hair was not growing back.
The patient was treated with only one session of PRP and this was the result at 6 months after one session. In addition to hair growing in the previous areas of hair loss, the patient’s hair character improved and the linear line that was developing on her forehead resolved. This was the first time PRP has been used to successfully treat this scaring alopecia. See the video featured on Fox FV.
The best way to evaluate a patient is to arrange a personal, in-depth consultation. However, this is impossible for many patients who fly in from other parts of the country or world. For this reason we have developed the remote consultation package, which is an acceptable alternative to the in-person personal consult.
Once your photos and questionnaire are reviewed, we will telephone you to discuss your questions or concerns regarding the procedure. You will also be given a suggested treatment plan and the costs involved. Click here for more complete information on our free on-line hair restoration consultation process.
