Treatments for Thinning Hair and Hair Loss
At Skin Renewal, our doctor-led approach is essential to achieve the desired hair thinning and loss results. Multiple treatments are often necessary for optimal results, and maintaining these results is crucial for long-term success.
PRP is a successful treatment where a small amount of blood is taken from the patient. The growth factors and bioactive proteins are separated from the blood and injected into the scalp to encourage hair growth. A course of 4-8 treatments is recommended, followed by maintenance treatments every six months.
Carboxytherapy for Hair Loss
Carboxytherapy is a highly effective treatment for hair re-growth and combating hair loss, particularly for those with thinning, weak, or brittle hair. This innovative therapy improves circulation at the injection site, enhancing oxygen delivery and promoting angiogenesis, which nourishes hair follicles and stimulates hair growth. The process involves the injection of CO2, causing vasodilation and increased nutrient supply to the scalp. When combined with mesotherapy, Carboxytherapy offers a comprehensive solution for restoring hair health and achieving beautiful, robust hair.
Specialty Hair Products to Enhance Clinical Treatments
Speciality hair products can significantly enhance results when combined with clinical treatments. Lamelle Research Laboratories' Pelo Baum offers a comprehensive hair revitalising program that includes a Hair Revitalizing Solution, Shampoo, and Conditioner. This program can improve hair thickness and density from root to tip.
MCCM Hair Cocktail is expertly designed to enhance the skin's microcirculation and strengthen hair, revitalising follicles for a healthier and more vibrant look. Consistent use significantly improves hair vitality and shine. This innovative formula provides targeted nourishment to the scalp, creating optimal hair growth and renewal conditions. Stimulating microcirculation ensures that hair follicles receive essential nutrients, resulting in stronger, shinier, and more resilient hair.
Topical Treatments
Minoxidil: Minoxidil is available in 2% or 5% solutions. It is most effective for the recent onset of androgenetic alopecia in small areas. Early use is recommended to prevent the progression of hair loss. It is more effective in central scalp areas than in frontal areas. Continuous use is essential, as stopping treatment will result in the loss of benefits within 3-6 months.
Causes of Hair Loss
Hair loss is a gradual process in which hair follicles regenerate every 2-6 years. Over time, patches of baldness can connect to form a new hairline. Genetic hair loss refers to the body's inability to produce new hair.
Factors Contributing to Hair Loss
Telogen Effluvium: Temporary hair loss due to hormonal changes, illness, diet changes, or medications.
Alopecia Areata: An autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks hair follicles. Often linked to other autoimmune conditions like thyroid disease, diabetes, and vitiligo. Genetics also play a role, with the condition running in families.
