PRP With ACEL

Hi all,
Was wondering has many people tried PRP with Acell? And have you been happy with results?I was looking at possibly giving it a try and see if it will help alongside my meds. Been on propecia 8 years now but think I may be starting to lose ground. Just don €™t fancy making the switch to avodart just yet
Thanks in advance 👍

Have you thought of upping your dosage on Propecia to see how that works? I don`t believe Acell is licensed in the UK, therefore any doctor who administers it won`t be covered by medical insurance making them liable if something goes wrong.
Not sure on the licensing elsewhere. Acell is widely used in North America.

Thanks for reply Bigmac,
Yeah might have to go to North America. I €™m looking at getting a touch up anyway so might be best course of action.Not going to up propecia dosage as not read any documentation where it has proved upping the dosage from 1mg makes any difference.However I have been using generic version over last year, just wondering if the fault possibly lays there.
Thanks again for taking time to reply 👍

I`ve heard a few reports about Generic versions not working as they should. Joe Tillman wrote about it. I know there was a lot of fake Generics on the market, hopefully, you never got a batch of them. Getting back on Propecia may solve your issues.
David from Maitland Clinic, ex Garageland has had PRP, it may be worth asking him about it. It`s something I`ve never tried, so can`t really say what it`s like. I think it works for some and not others, like most things.
If you do go to North America for another HT, it would be the obvious choice to have the PRP and Acell while there but you do require top up sessions with it.
