HAIR LOSS TREATMENT

HAIR Loss? Take Action Now…

By the time most of decide to do something about hair loss, we have already lost a significant amount of hair follicles and hair density. Androgenetic Alopecia is the most common type of hair loss pattern, affecting 50% of women and up to 96% of Caucasian men. Androgenetic Alopecia is “non-scarring” which means the hair follicles are not permanently destroyed. Laser energy can stimulate the hair follicles from the resting (Telogen) phase into the growth (Anagen) phase. And hair will start to grow again.

Nutritional factors, the microbiome of the scalp and oxidative stress also play a role in hair loss. The effects of testosterone and its metabolite, Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) lead to miniaturization (thinning of the scalp hair, and ultimate hair loss) of the hair as well as prolongation of the hair “resting” (Telogen) phase. Adding an inhibitor or DHT blocker (like minoxidil) can help reverse the hair loss trend.

We also recommend nutritional supplements to supply “food” to the baby hair follicles. And we like to add exosomes to the hair restoration process. The laser creates tiny channels in the scalp through which exosomes can migrate to the hair follicle where they can work their restorative effects. We also use our Potenza Microneedling device to infuse exosomes into the scalp.

Laser Treatment

At MLA we have the X-Restart for the Fotona Dynamis SP. This hand piece is the safest and most efficient way of stimulating the hair cycle but improving the blood supply to the hair follicles and increasing the hair shaft density and thickness.

The X-Restart handpiece administers laser energy to the scalp area without causing breakage of the existing hair shafts, a side effect of most hand held handpieces. The X-Restart is designed like a hair brush, and it glides in direct contact with the scalp during the treatment.

This is a non-ablative process, which means there is no damage to the scalp, and no downtime. No anesthesia is necessary, and the treatment is tolerated very well.

Once a month treatment over several months (4-6 visits) are usually required to see results.

RESULTS:

Improved blood supply of hair follicles
Stimulation of the hair cycle
Increase in hair density and thickness
Prevention of further hair loss

EXOSOMES

Exosomes represent the future of regenerative medicine. They are 1000x more powerful than traditional treatments like PRP and Polynucleotides, delivering a higher concentration of growth factors, proteins, and regenerative signals directly to the skin and scalp. Exosomes stimulate the formation of blood vessels, contain growth factors, and have anti-inflammatory effects. They stimulate the proliferation and differentiation of hair follicle cells, which leads to the production of healthier and thicker hair strands.

OPTIMAL HAIR RESTORATION PLAN

Morning – Take a dietary supplement such as Forti5 available from Amazon.

Night – Oral, low dosage prescription Minoxidil, which will inhibit the production of DHT.

Treatments are scheduled every 2 to 3 weeks:

Treatment #1 Fotona Dynamis Laser Treatment with X-Restart hand piece combined with Potenza Fusion Tip injection of exosomes.

Session #2 Fotona Dynamis Laser Treatment with X-Restart hand piece.

Session #3 Fotona Dynamis Laser Treatment with X-Restart hand piece.

Session #4 Fotona Dynamis Laser Treatment with X-Restart hand piece combined with Potenza Fusion Tip injection of exosomes.

Session #5 Fotona Dynamis Laser Treatment with X-Restart hand piece.

Session #6 Fotona Dynamis Laser Treatment with X-Restart hand piece.

Baby hairs will sprout in 4 to 6 weeks.
Optimal results will be noticeable in 9 to 12 months.
