I am 28 and i would say i have diffuse thinning. My hairline is the same from when i was in highschool, just my hair is noticeably thinner. So after 4 years of my hair slowly thinning and falling, I finally decided to go to the dermatologist today. I am very disappointed, as she seemed more concerned with selling me PRP treatments. First off, she says yes I have hairloss and said i should start propecia, minoxidil. I was expecting this but then she also recommended “nutrafol” and to buy some $3k laser cap from her. Lastly, she recommended four treatments of PRP, with $1.5k a pop. At this point I really started to question her because this just seemed stupid. I left feeling angry, not because she said i did indeed have hair loss, I already knew this. But the fact that she was pushing me to buy all this treatments and procedures which I know do not work. What do you guys think? Have any of your doctors recommended anything similar? Any input would help.

yes, most hairloss ''doctors'' offer garbage treatments. ive also been offered prp treatments for 2k usd lol.
just start off with propeca and minoxidil and skip the crap they recommend. most (if not all) of what they offer is a hassle anyway.
