Hair is a hallmark of your identity. A good hair day can inspire confidence, and a bad hair day can do just the opposite. That is why prematurely losing hair can be so devastating for women and men. For centuries hair has been associated with beauty, health, and strength. Think back to Cleopatra’s braids or even Queen Elizabeth I’s curls. The color, texture, and even style of your hair all come together to tell a story of who you are. Hair, even lack of hair, is a statement.
At Vibrant Dermatology in Dedham, MA, we specialize in scalp injections, a treatment designed to fight hair loss and promote hair growth.
Scalp injections are a treatment aimed at combating hair loss and encouraging new growth. This treatment involves administering a specially formulated solution directly into the scalp, focusing on areas with thinning hair. The solution often includes growth factors, vitamins, and other beneficial compounds that activate hair follicles, promoting them to enter the growth phase and generate new hair.
Did you know that over 80 million Americans suffer from hair loss? Hair loss can be attributed to a number of conditions and is amplified by poor circulation, dead skin cells, and clogged follicles. That is why patients from all over New England and surrounding areas come to see Dr. Joyce Imahiyerobo-Ip at Vibrant Dermatology.
Dr. Imahiyerobo-Ip is a board-certified, ivy-league trained dermatologist and a renowned leader in the field of hair loss and regeneration. As an innovator in the field, after evaluating a patient’s hair loss, Dr. Imahiyerobo-Ip customizes treatment plans, which can include topical medications, oral medications, steroid injections, and even procedural options, including PRP and KeraFactor.
Scalp injections directly target hair follicles, stimulating them to enter the growth phase. This activation promotes new hair growth, helping to increase hair density and volume.
Unlike hair transplant surgeries, scalp injections are non-surgical, minimizing the risk of complications and ensuring a quicker, more comfortable recovery.
The treatment is relatively fast, typically taking about 30 minutes to an hour. This makes it a convenient option for those with busy schedules.
Patients generally experience minimal discomfort during the treatment. The sensation is often described as a slight tingling or pricking, making it an easily tolerable treatment.
The treatment can be tailored to meet the specific needs of each patient. The solution can be adjusted accordingly if the patient is dealing with early signs of thinning hair or more advanced hair loss.
In addition to promoting new growth, scalp injections improve the quality of existing hair. Patients often notice thicker, stronger, and healthier hair after treatment.
With no need for incisions or stitches, scalp injections require minimal downtime. Patients can usually resume their normal activities immediately following the treatment.
The benefits of scalp injections are long-lasting. Proper maintenance and follow-up treatments allow patients to enjoy sustained improvements in hair density and quality.
Vibrant Dermatology is thrilled to now offer Scalp Revive, a revolutionary hair treatment that nourishes and revitalizes your scalp to stimulate hair growth. Often thought of as a facial for your scalp, Scalp Revive is a non-invasive treatment that stimulates scalp health and hair growth.
This treatment cleans your hair follicles and stimulates blood flow to the scalp, which in turn helps to grow healthy new hairs. Once the follicles are clear of debris and oil, synthetic growth factors are gently massaged into the scalp. The whole treatment takes no longer than 30 minutes, and it is painless. You can enjoy the treatment while relaxing in the SkinBar sipping on a seltzer and watching your favorite TV show.
For patients looking to maximize hair growth, Dr. Imahiyerobo-Ip recommends using this treatment after completing a series of PRP or KeraFactor treatments. To achieve optimal follicle growth, Scalp Revive should be performed once a month for three months.
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) injections for hair loss are an advanced treatment that utilizes your body’s own growth factors to stimulate hair growth. PRP injections involve drawing a small amount of your blood, processing it to concentrate the platelets, and then injecting this PRP solution directly into the scalp in areas with thinning hair. These growth factors boost hair follicle activity, encouraging them to enter the growth phase and produce new hair.
KeraFactor is an advanced treatment designed to combat hair loss and stimulate new hair growth. This innovative solution contains a unique blend of growth factors and proteins specifically formulated to nourish and revitalize hair follicles. By targeting the scalp directly, KeraFactor helps to improve the health of hair follicles, encouraging them to produce thicker, stronger hair.
The time it takes for scalp injections to show results can vary. Generally, patients notice an improvement in hair density and growth within a few weeks to a few months after the initial treatment. Multiple sessions may be required for optimal results.
The number of scalp injections required varies based on individual needs and the extent of hair loss. Typically, a series of treatments a few weeks apart is recommended to achieve the best results. During your consultation, we will create a personalized treatment plan.
Anyone experiencing thinning hair or hair loss may be a good candidate for scalp injections. This treatment is suitable for both men and women and can be customized to address various
causes of hair loss. A consultation with us will help determine if this treatment is right for you.
