Stem cell therapy hair
I'm at my 26, nearing baldness(I would say stage1). I consulted a specialist and he suggested for stem cell therapy. Is it permanent ? Any side effects ? Any other suggestions please post. One sitting costs 2700 rupees and he advised 2 to 4 sittings. Before getting into these things, I want to know the background and how far can I rely on this treatment ? How long my hair will stay ?

Stem cell therapy is just adjuvant therapy. Sem cells are derived from fat cells, plants derived and amniotic fluid. Amniotic derived has good results. It helps in strengthening the hair root but doesn't help in growing new hair. But most important thing is you need to be started on topical minoxidil and oral finasteride. These two are must for hair growth and to be used as long as you need hairand they are FDA approved.
