A 27-year-old male presented with a 7-year history of progressive hair loss. According to the provided patient profile, he had no significant medical history, no relevant personal habits, and had not undergone any previous hair treatment.
Clinical assessment documented Grade 3 progressive baldness. A structured PRP treatment plan was initiated using a micro-injection technique with topical anaesthesia.
The initial plan advised 5 PRP sessions at approximately 1-month intervals, along with supportive hair care such as Minoxidil and vitamins where medically appropriate.
The patient continued beyond the initial course and has now attended 8 PRP sessions in total.
Patient Consent Notice
This case study is published only with the patient’s appropriate consent. PRP treatment results may vary depending on the severity and duration of hair loss, follicle condition, genetics, supportive care, and individual response. As this patient had Grade 6 progressive baldness, PRP was used mainly to support existing and miniaturized follicles, and complete regrowth cannot be guaranteed.
At baseline, the patient showed progressive Grade 3 patterned hair loss, with visible thinning over the frontal region and reduced density across the upper scalp.
Compared with advanced baldness, Grade 3 hair loss still contains more existing follicles that may potentially respond to supportive treatment.
The treatment strategy therefore focused primarily on preserving existing hair and improving the condition of miniaturized follicles rather than waiting for further progression.
The initial treatment plan consisted of:
Treatment: Platelet-Rich Plasma therapy
Technique: Micro-injection technique
Anaesthesia: Topical anaesthesia
Frequency: Approximately once every month
Initial sessions advised: 5
Total sessions attended: 8
Supportive care: Minoxidil, maintenance serum and vitamins as advised
Because the patient continued treatment after completing the original five-session course, Sessions 6 to 8 can be documented as an extended or maintenance phase based on clinical review.
During PRP treatment, a small quantity of the patient’s own blood is collected and processed to concentrate platelets.
The prepared platelet-rich plasma is then injected into selected areas of the scalp using a micro-injection technique.
Topical anaesthesia is used where required to improve patient comfort.
The purpose of repeated PRP treatment is to provide ongoing support to existing follicles over time rather than expecting an immediate change after a single session
Following treatment, the patient was advised to follow appropriate post-care instructions.

The first session marked the beginning of the treatment journey.
At baseline, the patient showed:
Main treatment focus:
A dramatic cosmetic change would not be expected immediately after the first treatment.
The second PRP session was performed as part of the planned monthly treatment course.
During this phase, the doctor would typically monitor:
The main goal remained stabilization and continued support of existing follicles.
By the third session, the patient had completed more than half of the initially planned five-session course.
Possible clinical parameters assessed at this stage included:
Any visible progress should ideally be evaluated using standardized photographs taken under similar lighting, angle, hairstyle and hair length.
The fourth PRP session continued the monthly treatment plan.
By this stage, repeated treatment had provided cumulative follicular support.
The assessment could focus on:
The fifth PRP session completed the patient’s originally advised five-session course.
This represented the end of the initial structured treatment phase.
After completing five sessions, the patient’s response could be reviewed in terms of:
Since the patient subsequently attended additional PRP sessions, the treatment plan was continued beyond the initial course.
The sixth PRP session can be considered part of the patient’s extended or maintenance treatment phase.
At this point, the purpose of treatment generally shifts more toward maintaining the response achieved during the initial course.
Clinical focus may include:
The need for additional treatment should be based on ongoing clinical assessment.
During the seventh PRP session, treatment continued with a longer-term hair preservation approach.
By this stage, the patient had already received repeated PRP stimulation and supportive hair care.
The doctor may review:
The objective at this stage is generally maintenance and preservation rather than expecting sudden new growth.
The patient has now attended his 8th PRP session.
This represents a longer PRP treatment journey extending beyond the original five sessions.
At this stage, assessment should focus on the cumulative response and long-term stability of the patient’s hair.
Important parameters after the 8th session include:
The patient’s treatment can now be described as a completed initial PRP course followed by an extended maintenance phase.
After a longer PRP course, follow-up should primarily assess whether the patient’s hair-loss pattern has become more stable.
Potential areas of clinical improvement to evaluate include:
However, exact claims such as percentage regrowth or quantified density improvement should only be used if supported by standardized clinical measurements or matched before-and-after photographs.
Patterned hair loss is generally progressive, so some patients may require ongoing maintenance after completing an initial PRP course.
Additional sessions may be considered depending on:
The timing and number of maintenance sessions should therefore be individualized.
The patient’s maintenance plan includes healthy long-term hair-care habits.
Recommended measures include:
These supportive measures are important because PRP alone does not permanently remove the underlying tendency toward patterned hair loss.
The patient has completed 8 PRP sessions in total.
The patient was documented as having Grade 3 progressive hair loss.
No. The number of sessions varies depending on the degree of hair loss, individual treatment response and clinical assessment.
