Hair Restoration
As part of the ageing process, both men and women tend to see a decrease in hair thickness, hair growth and volume. Although this is seen in mostly men, women are not excluded.
While used as an anti-aging skin treatment, microneedling also assists in some forms of hair loss by the same process of creating wounds in the skin to also regenerate the health of the hair follicles on the scalp. Combined with PRP, growth factors are introduced to these dormant follicles which then triggers natural hair growth and maintaining it by increasing blood supply to the hair follicle and increasing the thickness of the hair shaft. The increase in blood flow brings essential nutrients into the follicle while taking away harmful waste products, but also increases cellular metabolism and cellular activity. The hair follicle, therefore, has the necessary building blocks and energy to transform from a weakened follicle to one that is healthy and capable of producing beautiful, thick healthy hair. The enhanced environment, in turn, invigorates the hair follicle which produces healthier hair, prevents further hair loss and stimulates the re-growth of hair.
In addition to the treatment, Thymuskin hair regeneration shampoos and conditioners will be recommended as part of your complete programme.
