“The hair fall treatment in Punjabi Bagh begins before arriving at the center, since we need a previous analysis to verify that everything is correct.

Also, it can be used as a good complement to other hair treatments like finasteride or dutasteride,” he says. Many patients may wonder if it is painful. “We cannot say that it is totally painless, in addition, pain is something very subjective and in each patient it is different. Yes it is an annoying process, but tolerable”, he tells us.
