If you are looking into hair restoration, the range of options can be confusing. This overview explains the main non-surgical approaches, what they involve, and why they are usually combined into a programme rather than used in isolation.
Everything begins with assessment, because identifying the cause of thinning is what makes any treatment worthwhile.
Assessment comes first
Hair thinning has many causes, from genetic and hormonal factors to stress, nutrition and medical conditions. Effective treatment depends on identifying the likely cause, so a proper assessment always precedes any recommendation. Some causes need medical investigation rather than aesthetic treatment.
The main non-surgical options
Several treatments are used to support the scalp and hair follicles. They are typically delivered as a course, and are often combined for a more complete approach.
- PRP, which uses your own platelet-rich plasma to support the treatment area
- Exosome therapy, used to support the scalp's recovery environment
- Microneedling, which prompts the scalp's own repair response and can improve delivery of other treatments
- Professional homecare to support the scalp between sessions
Why a programme, not a one-off
Hair responds gradually, and consistency is what produces results. This is why hair restoration is delivered as a personalised course of sessions with homecare, rather than a single treatment. The number of sessions and the combination are decided from your assessment.
Setting realistic expectations
Outcomes vary between individuals and depend on the cause of thinning and how early treatment begins. An honest consultation sets realistic expectations. At Regener8, options are combined within the Hair Restoration Programme.
