Most men can expect some thinning or change in their patterns they age. usually this is gradual, but it can sometimes be dramatic and sudden. This type of hair loss may need to be investigated by a physician.
for clients who have had gradual loss and thinning that is related to the natural ageing process could benefit from Microneedling.
Microneedling is the process of causing mild trauma to the skin and scalp to promote natural skin healing and induce collegen production. In relation to hair loss and hair thinning, microneedling is thought to induce stem cells in the hair follicle that may lead to new hair growth.
Polynucleotides are also offered to support patients with hair loss, Polynucleotides are derived from scientifically farmed fish DNA. Fragments of DNA is filtered and prepared into a gel like substance that can be injected into the scalp to promote new hair growth. Please get in touch for more information and a consultation to discuss this treatment
The treatment involves hydrating microinjections of a soft, gel-like substance called hyaluronic acid into the skin, which improves skin firmness, elasticity and radiance. Water-loving hyaluronic acid occurs naturally in the body where it maintains hydration in the skin. As we age, the quality and abundance of hyaluronic acid in our skin diminishes over time. Skin Boosters provide the opportunity to replenish and maintain natural hydration levels from within. Skin boosters can be injected into most areas including the face, under eyes, neck and hands.
I offer skin care to my clients based on their specific needs, budgets and skin goals.
Home care is so important and everyone should have a consistent home skin care regime.
