Hairloss

We often see our hair as a reflection of who we are. The biggest feature that affects the face is the hair for both men and women. For so many of us, a bad hair day equals a bad day. It is no wonder that hair loss/ alopecia can deeply affect ones self-esteem. This deep relationship between hair and self-esteem is evident throughout history, philosophy and even religion.

We have launched a new technique to combat hair loss/alopecia. This technique involves mesotherapy using a non-cross-linked, resorbable hyaluronic acid, combined with micro-needling. This treatment does not involve the use minoxidil or 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors.

What is involved in the treatment?

XL hair, a Hyaluronic acid (HA) blend, is injected into the scalp in tiny superficial injections followed with a boost of mico-needling to allow even penetration and stead of the HA. The treatment needs to be repeated once a week for a period of 4-6 weeks.

How does it work?

The solution used contains a non cross-linked Hyaluronic acid. The restructuring and moisturizing capacity of Hyaluronic acid supplies the scalp with exceptional hydration and a remarkable biostimulation effect. It allows more efficient natural exchanges between hair cells and the intercellular matrix. The micro-needling stimulates blood flow, increases the availability of cell nutrients, releases vascular endothelial factor (VEGF), and upregulating fibroblast growth factor (FGF-7).

When will I notice the results?

You may start noticing results in as little as 1 week but a minimum of 4-6 sessions, one week apart, are recommended for noticeable results.

How long will the results last?

Duration of results is dependant on the individual. Results have generally proven to be long lasting. Once the desired result is achieved we recommend treatment once a year to maintain.

Will it hurt?

You may feel slight discomfort. Local anaesthetic is not needed as the needles used are tiny and the device used is designed to reduce pain.

Is it safe?

Yes, the treatment is completely safe. The micro-needling treatment does not pierce the skins natural barrier, only penetrating into the epidermis to stimulate collagen production. The epidermis heals rapidly, usually in a matter of hours, and the skin should be completely back to normal within 24 to 48 hours.

What are the side effects?

Possible side effects- pain, redness, bruising, swelling, stinging, local inflammation; which usually disappear in 24 hours.

Who cannot have the treatment?

  • Anyone who is allergic to the ingredients.
  • Anyone with any skin alteration, skin disease, infections or sequelae of streptococcal infections.
  • Patients taking immunosuppressant, undergoing cortical therapy, autoimmune diseases, repetitive angina, and endocarditis.
  • Patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
