Hair mesotherapy is a treatment method that stands out with its special ingredients that nourish and strengthen the scalp and hair roots, stopping hair loss. It offers an effective solution for individuals experiencing hair loss, thinning, dryness, or lifelessness. The goal is to address mild to moderate hair loss without the need for hair transplantation. After the procedure, the hair becomes shinier, healthier, and fuller.
What Is Hair Mesotherapy?
Known as "Mesohair," hair mesotherapy involves applying a special solution containing vitamins, minerals, circulation regulators, and oligoelements directly to the scalp with fine-tipped injectors. This method nourishes the hair roots, promoting stronger, livelier, and healthier hair.
Problems Treated with Hair Mesotherapy:
- Hair Loss: Prevents male and female pattern hair loss.
- Thinning Hair: Thickens thinning hair.
- Dryness and Lifeless Hair: Moisturizes and revitalizes the hair.
- Weak Hair After Hair Loss: Stimulates hair follicles for new hair growth.
- Seasonal Hair Loss: Stops increased hair loss during seasonal transitions.
- Stress-Induced Hair Loss: Prevents hair loss triggered by stress and supports healthy hair growth.
Before and After Hair Mesotherapy
The changes in the hair of patients undergoing hair mesotherapy become visibly noticeable over time. Here are the expected changes by session:
Number of Sessions | Before Condition | Post-Treatment Changes Observed |
---|---|---|
1-2 Sessions | Hair loss continues, hair follicles are weak. | Blood circulation increases, hair follicles begin to receive nourishment. |
3-4 Sessions | Mild hair thinning is present. | New hair growth starts, hair loss decreases. |
6-8 Sessions | Hair is thin and lifeless. | Hair strands thicken, becoming shinier. |
10 Sessions and Above | Thinning, weak hair. | Full, strong, and healthy hair structure develops. |
This process may vary depending on individual hair structure and how the hair responds to the treatment. For permanent and long-term effects, regular maintenance sessions are recommended.
How Is Hair Mesotherapy Performed?
Patients complaining of hair loss and damage are examined by evaluating the degree of hair loss and the condition of the scalp. When appropriate, the scalp is cleaned, and a special mesotherapy solution is injected into the hair follicles using fine needle injectors. This solution nourishes the hair follicles and accelerates blood circulation, strengthening the hair. The procedure lasts 10-15 minutes, and the patient can return to their daily activities after the session.
How Does Hair Mesotherapy Work?
Hair mesotherapy, with its ingredients such as vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, directly affects the hair follicles by increasing the oxygen level and boosting blood circulation. This strengthens the hair, adding vitality and shine. Early to moderate hair loss stops, and thin, sparse hair thickens and increases in number. The effects of hair mesotherapy begin to show after several sessions, typically noticeable by the 3rd or 4th session.
