PRP Combined with Minoxidil/Finasteride Cost in Korea

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy, when combined with topical Minoxidil or oral Finasteride, offers a dual approach to treating androgenetic alopecia and thinning hair. This combination boosts follicle stimulation by enhancing local blood flow (PRP) while systemically reducing hormonal hair loss triggers (Finasteride) or enhancing regrowth cycles (Minoxidil).

Korean clinics frequently use this synergistic protocol as part of non-surgical hair restoration plans, customized per gender and severity of hair loss. Patients often see enhanced outcomes when PRP is supported with consistent topical or oral regimens.
