Needle scalp mesotherapy is a treatment supporting the condition of the scalp and hair follicles. It is worth starting, however, with the most important thing: hair loss does not have a single cause.
It can be related to stress, infection, childbirth, diet, deficiencies, thyroid disease, medications, scalp inflammation or androgenetic alopecia. That is why cosmetology can support a plan, but should not replace diagnosis.
When to start with a dermatologist?
Sudden, severe hair loss, visible bald patches, itching, scaling, scalp pain, wounds, seborrhoea, hormonal symptoms or loss of eyebrows and lashes require a medical consultation. In such situations, a salon treatment without identifying the cause can delay the right course of action.
When can mesotherapy be part of a plan?
- with a weakened scalp condition after ruling out contraindications
- as support during periods of increased shedding, when the cause is being discussed with a specialist
- in a plan to improve scalp quality and nourish the follicles
- as a series, not a single treatment with a promise of regrowth
- after assessing medications, diseases, pregnancy, breastfeeding and active inflammation
Mesotherapy or scalp carboxytherapy?
Scalp mesotherapy is based on administering a chosen preparation, while scalp carboxytherapy uses medical carbon dioxide and is considered when working with microcirculation. The choice depends on the skin, the goal, comfort and contraindications.
With hair loss, the most important thing is often a combined plan: diagnosis, scalp care, reducing irritating products, diet and only then supporting treatments.
What not to promise?
Mesotherapy does not restore hair in every type of alopecia and does not replace dermatological treatment. With scarring alopecia, active scalp diseases or untreated general causes, the treatment alone will not solve the problem.
With hair, the worst adviser is haste. First we look for the cause, then we choose a supporting treatment.
