About Hair Therapy
Side Effects and What Is Normal
Mild redness for 12 to 24 hours after microneedling is normal. Temporary shedding between week 2 and week 4 is also expected and signals that weak hairs are being replaced. Report any burning, persistent swelling, or scalp crusting lasting over 48 hours, since those are signs the protocol or product concentration needs adjustment.
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 call for 8 to 12 sessions over 4 to 6 months, then maintenance every 4 to 8 weeks. Exact numbers depend on diagnosis, age, and consistency with home care. Pause and reassess if no change shows after 6 months of treatment.
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.
When to Book a First Visit
Book an evaluation when you notice more than 100 strands falling per day for over 4 weeks, a widening parting line, or itching with flakes. Early-stage thinning responds faster to therapy. Waiting until bald patches appear usually means longer protocols, lower recovery rates, and a higher total cost across the full plan.
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.
What You Must Do at Home
Results depend heavily on home care. Use a sulfate-free shampoo, avoid heat above 180 degrees, and sleep on a silk or satin pillowcase to reduce friction. The professional should give you a written routine with product names, application order, and frequency. Skipping home steps cuts the effect of in-clinic sessions by roughly half.
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
Expect slower shedding first, then baby-fuzz regrowth around month 3. Density gains of 10 to 20 percent are realistic when diagnosis is correct. Therapy cannot revive scarred follicles or replace what hormones have already miniaturized beyond repair.
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.
