About Hair Therapy
Price Drivers You Should Understand
Price depends on the techniques included, the number of sessions, and the products applied. A single session can range widely because some clinics bundle LED, microneedling, and topical serum while others charge each step separately. Ask for an all-in quote per session and the total cost of the full plan, not a starting price.
Red Flags When Comparing Providers
Avoid providers who promise full restoration, skip scalp analysis, or sell large packages before measuring baseline density. Also avoid anyone who discourages medical review. Hair therapy supports medical care; it should never replace a dermatologist when the cause is medical.
What Happens in the First Appointment
A proper first appointment lasts 45 to 60 minutes. The therapist reviews your medical history, photographs the scalp under magnification, and checks density per square centimeter. You leave with a written plan describing technique, frequency, and expected timeline based on findings.
What to Ask Before You Hire
Ask who performs each step, their licence number, and whether a dermatologist supervises the case. Request the device model, the wavelength or needle depth, and the concentration of any injectable product. A clear answer to those three questions separates a clinical service from a basic spa add-on sold under the same name.
What You Must Do at Home
Home care drives half the result. Use a gentle sulfate-free shampoo, avoid daily heat above 180 degrees, and sleep on a silk pillowcase. Apply any prescribed serum exactly as instructed. Skip home microneedling unless your therapist specifically teaches you how.
When to Book a First Visit
Book a first visit when you notice more than 100 hairs falling daily, visible widening of the part, or new scalp patches showing through. Early action matters. Waiting until follicles are dormant for over 2 years usually limits what therapy can restore.
Realistic Results and Limits
Therapy can thicken miniaturised hairs and reactivate follicles that are still alive, but it cannot grow hair on a scar or on a long-standing bald area. Expect a 10 to 20 percent increase in density in responsive cases. Ask the professional to show you trichoscopy images from past clients with a similar starting profile.
Side Effects and What Is Normal
Mild scalp redness for 24 hours, light itching, and temporary shedding in week 2 are normal. Report any burning, scabbing, or swelling lasting beyond 48 hours. A trained therapist should explain risks in writing before starting, not after a problem appears.
What Hair Therapy Covers
Hair therapy is a set of scalp and strand treatments that address thinning, breakage, and dryness using clinical methods. It covers scalp exfoliation, low-level light, topical actives, and growth-supporting techniques. Ask each provider what their version includes before booking.
How Many Sessions Are Typical
Most plans run from 8 to 16 sessions, spaced every 7 to 15 days. Maintenance sessions every 30 to 60 days are common after the initial phase. Total visible change usually appears between month 3 and month 6. Ask for a written timeline with photos so you can compare results objectively rather than relying on memory.
