i have heard about PRP and PEP but im afraid of prp. is PEP treatment available in Pakistan?

From where did you hear PEP treatment ?
PEP is post exposure prophylaxis. Which means that if you go to an area where there is a certain disease that is endemic like Malaria or AIDS and when you return back you take treatment for that particular disease as a precaution. Whereas
PRP is a treatment for hair loss, baldness/ hair regrowth in both men and women; PRP for wrinkles, folds, pigmentation, scars and marks on face.
I am surprised because these two treatment modalities are completely different with no link to one another. Someone has completely misguided you.

There are only two clinically proven medicines that causes hair growth. The PEP factor you mentioned is not clinically proven and does not contain any such medicines. Whereas PRP / PRF is the only medical procedure that cause hairs to grow back if hair follicles are viable.
However since you are scared of PRP/PRF, I will advise you to go ahead with PEP factor treatment.
