Micro needling: About
Embracing the Future of Hair Restoration
Procell Therapy combined with cytokine stem cell serum represents a significant stride in the field of hair restoration and it's a new, non-invasive biotechnology that’s offered by a handful of Hair Clinics in New Zealand!
Hair loss can be quite a traumatic experience in some instances. Often, people don’t simply want to sit back and allow their hair to fall out. Intervention is often possible and is a route that’s frequently taken. Stem cell microneedling is an accessible, effective option when it comes to the hair regrowth process.
Furthermore, a number of people appreciate the fact that stem cell microneedling is a non-surgical process. This is favorable for a number of reasons, including the lack of a recovery time, as would be the case following a surgical procedure. After receiving a stem cell microneedling treatment, you’re free to return to your life, without being temporarily sequestered to your bed, or other recovery concerns.
1. Microneedling Helps Increase Collagen Production
The tiny needles used during a microneedling procedure, whether on the face or on the scalp, are able to stimulate collagen production.
Collagen in your scalp provides the scaffolding for hair follicles. This allows follicles to remain healthy, allowing them to continue growing hair. When your scalp is suffering from a lack of collagen, you’re likely to see a slowing in hair growth — in extreme cases, your follicles may become dormant altogether.
2. Microneedling Treatment Increases Blood Flow to Your Scalp
As many of us already know, blood flow is crucial to the overall health of our bodies. This includes hair follicles. When you have increased blood flow to the scalp, the area is being supplied with a greater amount of nutrients and oxygen. In this way, the hair follicles are receiving all the necessary supplies to grow healthy, strong hair. When you undergo a microneedling treatment for hair restoration, blood is immediately encouraged to surge to the scalp. This is because the needles involved in the treatment are opening blood vessels in the scalp, leading to blood rushing to the micro punctures.
3. The Treatment Stimulates Stem Cells
Perhaps unsurprisingly, stem cell microneedling is fantastic for stimulating stem cells in your scalp. When the scalp receives a microneedling treatment, stem cells found deep inside your hair follicles are stimulated. Thus, these stimulated stem cells trigger growth factor production within the area. This provides yet another boost to healthy hair growth.
4. Microneedling Improves Absorption of Serums and Topical Medications
Maybe you’re already on a medicated hair regrowth regime, applying topical medications such as Finasteride or Minoxidil. If this is the case, following your stem cell microneedling session, you can expect improved penetration of these medications. Hair follicles can be found around 1-2 millimeters beneath the surface of the scalp. When these follicles are opened up, thanks to micro punctures, medication will have easier, more direct access to the follicles.
Procell pure stem cells are packed full of growth factors. So, they can do more to help encourage hair regrowth than undergoing a standard microneedling treatment.
These growth factors include:
-
Cytokines
-
TGF-β3
-
Protective antioxidants
-
Potent peptides
Procell makes use of conditioned media, sourced from stem cells in human bone marrow culture.
What to Expect During Your Procell Microneedling Treatment
-
During your stem cell microneedling session, your scalp will come into direct contact with needles, which are attached to a roller. These needles are very small and very fine. The roller is worked along the scalp, right at the site of the hair loss. The needles will then create tiny injuries to the scalp area.
-
Depending on how large the treatment area is, the length of the treatment can vary. Still, stem cell microneedling is generally a fast treatment — in most cases, it will take less than ten to fifteen minutes. After that, you’re done! It’s as simple and easy as that.
-
Following your stem cell microneedling treatment, you might see some bruising, redness, or swelling on the affected area of the scalp. There may also be a small amount of pain, following the procedure. However, most side effects of a microneedling procedure will fade within around five days of the treatment.
How Many Stem Cell Treatments Do I Need?
Note that most stem cell therapy requires 4 treatments 4–6 weeks apart when first starting out. However, the actual number of treatments needed varies per patient.
Set realistic expectations
As with any hair restoration treatment, managing expectations is key. While Procell Therapy with cytokine stem cell serum shows promise, it’s important to understand that results may vary from person to person and may require multiple sessions for noticeable changes.
