Dry indoor air, heating, outdoor humidity, hats - all this negatively affects the condition of the hair. Fragility, dryness, dullness, excessive hair loss - these are just some of the unpleasant consequences!
But this does not mean that you need to resign yourself! Mesotherapy for hair is a simple and effective solution!
The essence of the technique is to administer a cocktail of minerals, vitamins and auxiliary components directly into the follicle, subcutaneously.
Thanks to this, the bulbs are saturated with the necessary microelements, blood flow is restored and the process of restoring hair growth and structure begins.
What results does mesotherapy give for hair:
- Hair loss stops
- Growth is activated
- Dandruff disappears
- Itching and peeling goes away
- The work of the sebaceous glands is normalized
- Hair becomes smooth and shiny
- Split ends stop appearing
- prevent premature graying
It is worth noting that mesotherapy for hair is often prescribed even with a clinical diagnosis of baldness! Quite a worthy recognition!
Preparations for hair mesotherapy
In our Tachev Training and Clinical Medical Center, injection methods are used that are approved for use in the Russian Federation. The choice of drugs, the frequency of administration and the number of procedures per course, the period between courses, and methods of administration are determined by the disease, its severity and duration.
In our practice, we use drugs based on natural placenta (melsmon, curasen), drugs based on peptides and growth factors, hyaluronic acid, amino acids, coenzymes - pluryal hair, hair X, NCTF, etc.
Studies conducted, including at our center, indicate that injectable drugs should not be injected too deeply, although there are exceptions. Thus, the drug melsmon is administered deeper than other drugs, subcutaneously.
The more superficial the injection, the slower the diffusion, which leads to an increase in the time the drug remains in the upper dermis. 50% of the drug injected to a depth of less than 4 mm remains at the injection point after ten minutes, while only 16% of the drug injected to a depth of more than 4 mm remains at the injection point after 10 minutes.
We also take into account that not only the pharmacological properties of the drug (activated platelet plasma, medicinal cocktails, ozone-oxygen mixture) determine the effectiveness of the procedure.
It is well known that the fact of microtraumatization of the skin with a needle triggers a whole cascade of complex biological reactions, as a result of which a large number of cellular growth factors are released, cell division is activated in the bulge zone, where the upper niche of mesenchymal stem cells is located, and the expression of genes that regulate hair growth is activated. In this regard, we usually carry out complex procedures, including not only the administration of drugs, but also combine mesotherapy with fractional effects on the problem area.
This approach allows you to obtain significantly more pronounced results than classical mesotherapy sessions.
Nuances of the procedure
Mesotherapy is a set of microinjections that are performed to restore volume and shine to hair. Subcutaneous administration of pharmaceutical elements, amino acids, vitamins and other nutrients stimulates the mesoderm and hair follicles. The method is suitable for both men and women. However, the “cocktail” may not work for hormonal alopecia. Direct indication for mesotherapy of the scalp: lack of nutrients, poor circulation. Although almost all patients who decide to undergo the procedure notice positive changes.
The injections themselves are almost completely painless. The doctor injects a “cocktail” of a combination of vitamins, minerals and amino acids under the scalp. The composition is selected individually, according to the needs of the patient. The most popular elements used in scalp mesotherapy products:
- biotin;
- buflomedil;
- dexenol;
- dutasteride;
- finasteride;
- minoxidil;
- organic silicon;
- B vitamins;
- biochanin-A;
- nano peptides.
If you restore hormonal balance in parallel with microinjections, then within a few weeks you will notice the active growth of new healthy hair. Sometimes, to select a cocktail, a trichologist prescribes a blood test. Some manufacturers add natural plant extracts and biologically active substances to their products. However, it is strictly prohibited to inject liquid pharmaceutical vitamins and extracts under the scalp yourself.
Conclusion
Undoubtedly, mesotherapy for hair at home is very convenient and economical. However, if you want to get 100% results from the procedure, it is better to contact highly qualified specialists at the salon. After all, they studied this and know how to choose the most effective vitamin cocktail.
In addition, we offer you to watch the video in this article, which will clearly show everything that we have talked about here.
Meso-cocktails for hair against hair loss at home, At home?
Mesotherapy at home - what is needed for this
Performing the procedure yourself right at home makes it possible to save a significant amount of money and time on visiting the salon. To do this, you will need a special device - a hair roller, as well as a vitamin mixture for injection.
It is better to choose a mesoscooter that is average in terms of functions and price. A device designed for 3-5 months of operation is ideal. Costs about $50.
The main characteristic of any mesoscooter is the size of the built-in needles. The efficiency of the device depends on this parameter.
For beginner users, we recommend needles up to 0.3 mm long, which is completely painless and safe. A little later it will be possible to switch to needles 0.5 mm long.
Mesoscooter for independent use. Needle length 0.5 mm.
Important! One mesoscooter - for one person. Under no circumstances should you use it together with someone else (even a close relative).
Next, the optimal vitamin cocktail is selected. In salons, it is selected individually, based on the specific problem, its neglect, as well as hair type and scalp condition. To conduct mesotherapy at home, thoroughly familiarize yourself with the compositions of ready-made cocktails.
We advise you to give preference to professional products, the best of which are cocktails from the brands Skinasil, ID Farma, Revitacare, Diatbel.
How I found my ideal hair growth product
Hello dear! I want to share with you my solution to the sensitive problem of hair loss . The problems are very serious, at least for me. I would never have thought that this misfortune would touch me, especially at the age of 29 (read more...)
The process of home mesotherapy is briefly described below.
- Wash your hair in the usual way.
- Dry your hair thoroughly (with a towel, hairdryer, naturally - whatever is convenient).
- Preparing the mesoscooter device - sterilization and drying.
- Treating the scalp with alcohol, chlorhexidine or hydrogen peroxide.
- Applying a vitamin cocktail to the device.
- Treating the surface of the head with a mesoscooter using gentle movements from the forehead to the back of the head. It is best to conditionally divide the head into small sections and process each for about one minute.
- Rinse the device yourself under running hot water and dry it completely.
Here is a schematic diagram of how to treat the head with a mesoscooter.
When can I expect results from mesotherapy?
A noticeable effect from mesotherapy appears quickly, usually after 2-3 procedures, patients note that the skin has become more toned, wrinkles are less noticeable, and the complexion has improved. How many sessions are needed, again, is decided by the doctor, but, as a rule, they are prescribed from 3 to 12 with an interval of 7-10 days. The effect of mesotherapy lasts for six months to a year.
If you still have questions, you can ask them to a cosmetologist online in the Doctis application.
Consequences of biotin deficiency
Although biotin deficiency is quite rare, due to hormonal or age-related changes, the level of biotin in the blood can decrease significantly.
In this case, be prepared for the following consequences related to the health of your scalp hair:
- Excessive hair loss.
- Dull hair.
- Split ends.
- Dandruff.
- Itchy scalp.
- Increased oiliness of the scalp.
- Alopecia.
It is quite difficult to correct such problems on your own, since they are associated with low immunity of the root system, which is caused by a lack of biotin.
How is the procedure done?
Hair mesotherapy can be performed by a trichologist, dermatologist or cosmetologist. The procedure is simple, almost painless. During the first consultation, the doctor will assess the condition of the scalp and prescribe tests. The information obtained will help you choose a drug for hair mesotherapy. Before the first injection, an allergy test is required: a small amount of meso-cocktail is injected into the forearm and the reaction is observed. If no complications arise, the doctor will move directly to mesotherapy.
At the beginning of the procedure, the scalp is degreased. At the patient's request, additional anesthetic treatment may be performed, although most people tolerate all manipulations without pain relief. Then the meso cocktail is applied along the partings (for women) or bald parts (for men). The punctures are not too deep; the needle should reach the middle layer of the dermis. If blood dew occurs, the trichologist will definitely wait until the ichor discharge ends. The resulting crusts must not be scraped off: they should fall off on their own. Although if the patient does not have problems with blood clotting, all traces of mesotherapy will disappear on their own the next day.
Which mesococktail with biotin to choose
When performing mesotherapy in cosmetology, the composition of the meso cocktail is usually selected by the cosmetologist individually for each client. However, for home appliances, ready-made preparations are used, sold in pharmacies or cosmetic stores.
In any case, meso-cocktails should not contain aggressive or toxic components that could cause not only an allergic skin reaction, but also lead to serious complications that would affect the girl’s health.
The following products are most effective on the condition of scalp hair:
- Kosmoteros Biotin care;
- Biotin OM-BIOTINIC;
- Mesoestetic Biotin;
- Dermaheal HL;
- Con.
You can use biotin concentrate in its pure form, but it is quite aggressive, so using formulations with a high concentration of the vitamin at home is not recommended.
In any case, if you want to do mesotherapy yourself, first consult with a doctor or cosmetologist so that he allows you to perform the procedure and prescribes the optimal and safe drug to quickly restore the health of your vegetation.
It is also important to follow all recommendations and precautions prescribed before and after the procedure. This way you will not only increase the efficiency of assimilation of useful components, but also prevent the occurrence of undesirable consequences and complications.
Why do you need biotin for hair?
Biotin is a natural coenzyme that belongs to a group of enzymes that break down fats and carbohydrates and also promote their excretion from the body.
In simple words, Biotin is vitamin B7. It is spontaneously produced by the intestines, and also enters the girl’s body through many products:
- Egg yolks;
- Beans;
- Pork liver;
- Cereals;
- Beef;
- Chicken;
- Red vegetables;
- Greenery;
- Cottage cheese, cheese, cow's milk.
Biotin is often called the “Hair and Skin Vitamin.” It helps not only to saturate epithelial cells with useful substances, but also to awaken natural metabolic processes that slow down with age.
Since biotin is produced by the body, deficiency is rare. However, if there is insufficient vitamin B7 in the body, serious problems arise with the condition of the skin, and, to a greater extent, hair. In such cases, it is important to undergo a course of biotin mesotherapy.
What are the benefits of Biotin?
The effectiveness of biotin is often underestimated by girls, since it is produced spontaneously and supports healthy hair and skin.
But in fact, the enzyme plays an important role in the human body, performing the following functions:
- Carrying out protein metabolism;
- Normalization of the sebaceous glands;
- Restoration of blood microcirculation;
- Lymphatic drainage;
- Acceleration of collagen and elastin production;
- Activation of regeneration of new epithelial cells;
- Restoring tissue water balance;
- Decreased glucose levels;
- Saturation of epithelial cells with oxygen.
A high level of biotin in the skin is also especially important for pregnant women, as it promotes the active development of the fetus and prevents complications and side effects.
At the same time, keep in mind that you can restore the balance of vitamin B7 by ingesting pharmaceutical preparations - in the form of tablets or capsules. However, in this case, a fairly small concentration of the composition will enter your body, which is why the course of treatment may last quite a long time.
The optimal solution in this case is to resort to biotin mesotherapy for hair or face.
