41 years old female suffers from alopecia areata for 5 years with frequent relapses and she has been suffering from Menier's disease recurrent symptoms for 6 years. The patient developed SSD after third PRP rejuvenating procedure and she has also noticed new alopecia areata lesions, but without Menier's disease symptoms. After SSD, 4 months later, she developed severe symptoms of Menier's disease with an episode of sudden sensorineural hearing loss. It alleviated only after intravenous administration of methylprednisolone. In our opinion, significant contraindication of PRP procedure is an autoimmune disease in the active phase.
