About Hair Therapy
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.
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.
Price Drivers You Should Understand
Price varies with technique, device quality, session length, and the practitioner's training. Packages of 10 sessions usually cost less per visit than single bookings. Beware of very low prices, since cheap LED panels or shared operators often signal poor outcomes.
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.
What to Ask Before You Hire
Ask who performs each session, what training they hold, and whether a trichologist reviews your case. Request the device brand and wavelength. Confirm photos and measurements will be taken at each visit so progress is documented, not guessed.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
