Common questions

Is PRP an alternative to a transplant?
They address different situations. PRP is used as a possible adjunct in selected plans; it is not a replacement for surgery where surgery is indicated. Which, if either, applies is decided at consultation.
Does it work for everyone?
No. Response varies between individuals. Suitability is decided at consultation after an examination. Some people are better served by a different treatment, or by none.
