HI Dr.
Thanks for your response. I have tried many places to get a solution for this problem but since she is diabetic and has harmonal imbalance (hypo thyroid) sergical method is not prescribed. Stem cells are the only possible approach that is for her right now however the dilema is we don't have any positive reviews from the people undergoing this kind of treatment. Appreciate if you could suggest the best combination of a therapy and stemcells to ensure hair regrowth.
Her confidence level is decreasing every day leading to depression. I need to act fast to revive her social life yet again.
Looking forward for your response.
thanks & regards,
XXXXX

Brief Answer:
combined approach is best
Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX
You are correct that in case of hormonal imbalance surgeries cannot be done.
Only stem cell is also not going to help.
A combination of various modalities is definitely going to help.
These include,
Stem cell plus any of the following,
1. Anti hair loss injection.
2. Platelet XXXXXXX plasma.
3. Basic hair therapy with oral medication.
Basic therapy means use of LASERS and dermaroller to induce hair growth.
I am working in hair line clinic where we deal with various modalities of hair fall both surgical and non surgical, stem cells etc,
If you want, you can come and XXXXXXX me.
Details of clinic given in my profile.
