comparison vs

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatment involves taking blood and isolating the PRP from it to then inject it back into the scalp. This can help promote growth and healing while lengthening the growth phase of the hair cycle. Finasteride is an FDA-approved hair regrowth medication for male pattern hair loss. It can be taken as an oral supplement or applied topically. It blocks the production of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) which causes hair to become weak and thin. PRP injections need to be performed in a clinic on a semi-regular basis to benefit from them. Finasteride needs to be either taken as a pill or applied daily to see results. Explore the comparison table below to see if PRP injections or finasteride are a better fit for you.

Hair Regrowth Options Comparison Summary

PRP treatment requires monthly sessions over a 3 to 6-month window followed by semi-regular maintenance sessions every 6 months to keep the result. PEMF treatment requires more regular sessions, beginning at every week or twice a week and then gradually decreasing. An at-home PEMF device, while an initial investment, could end up cheaper in the long run but requires a daily commitment. PRP treatments can be costly if maintenance sessions are required on a regular basis. PRP treatments have been commonplace in treating hair loss for a while meaning more research has been done on the effectiveness of the treatment. PEMF treatments are less well researched but early signs are promising. PEMF treatment for hair loss is not widespread in clinics and the only at-home device on the market to treat hair loss does not currently ship to Australia. PRP treatments can have some side effects including excess bleeding, headaches, redness, and tenderness while PEMF therapy, when performed on its own, has not had any reported side effects.

 

User Guidance

If you’re looking for a more non-invasive option, PEMF therapy may be for you. Additionally if used on its own, PEMF treatments have no reported side effects even over long term use. PRP treatments are more widely accessible in dermatologist and aesthetician clinics and are not as much of a time commitment compared to PEMF treatments. While at home PEMF treatments can help reduce hair shedding and thinning, PRP treatments may be more effective at treating advanced form of hair loss like androgenetic alopecia. If you’re looking for a treatment that can be performed at home, PEMF therapy allows for at-home devices but PRP treatments need to be performed in a clinic by a licensed dermatologist or esthetician.
