Microneedling helps hair restoration.
Thinning hair? Have you seen a loss of caliber and thickness of each hair? Color changes?
Microneedling of the scalp has been shown in multiple studies to help statistically significantly with hair loss on its own. The reason is unclear, but it is thought microneedling stimulates the wound healing cascade. The microneedling, done in a medical setting with sterile medical grade needles, creates a microinjury. During this healing cascade, this causes the release of growth factors, hair follicle stem cells, and new vascularization.
Dual therapy improves things more.
This takes advantage of the microchannels opened by the microneedling to place bioactive serums to penetrate deeper into the tissue. Studies have been done using Minoxidil, PRP, or Exosomes. At our Bay Area Biohackr Clinics we have the options for all three.
How is hair microneedling with exosomes done?
Hair restoration with microneedling in our Biohackr Clinic in SF or Palo Alto can be done using PRP, Age Zero Exosomes, or Minoxidil.
- They all have been shown to help in studies.
- Stacking the therapies, using dual therapy or a trio of therapies, has been shown to be more effective than microneedling alone or topical application of the products alone.
We use Resilielle Age Zero Exosomes for our Regenerative Medicine.
- Exosomes are tiny extracellular vesicles released by cells which act as messengers between cells. They stimulate proteins, growth factors, adn genetic signals. They help with cell to cell communication and regeneration. Exosomes act as messengers. They tell cells to heal. They tell cells that weak or dormant (like hair follicles) to get going, grow, and recover.
- Unlike other drugs or hormones, exosomes act at the cellular level to trigger your body’s own regenerative processes.
- What are some of the things these Age Zero Exosomes trigger?
- Epidermal Growth factor.(EGF) Stimulates hair follicle matrix cells to elongate the hair shaft.
- Insulin Like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1). This is a critical growth factor to help the hair follicle grow and cycle. It can help follicle cells transition from the telogen resting phase to the anagen growth phase.
- Fibroblast Growth Factors (FGF). Some of these are critical for hair follicle development
- Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF). This helps form new blood vessels. This brings oxygen and nutrients to the hair follicle.
- Stem Cell Factor (SCF) . They help melanocytes in the hair shaft, which contributes to hair pigmentation.
- We chose our brand of Age Zero Exosomes due to their scientific principles and quality
- They are made from “Age Zero” Wharton’s Jelly mesenchymal stem cells
- They are pure exosomes- high potency, acellular, biologically active
- They are never lyophilized. They are frozen, suspended in clinical grade saline
- CLIA Certificate of Conformity and Safety
- Please see the attached study results using their product. They can show impressive results with one or two treatments (total!), doing microneedling with the Exosomes only. RESILIELLE MICRONEEDLING EXOSOME HAIR RESTORATION
Hair Restoration at Biohacker Health
At our Bay Area clinics in San Francisco and Palo Alto we offer many different approaches to hair restoration, from a simple supplement, prescribed medications, microneedling, to PRP or PRF injections.
- Biohackr Hair Regrow Supplement. This is a synergistic blend offers the vitamin and mineral base required for keratin production and hair follicle optimization. Nutrients like turmeric, resveratrol, and black pepper reduce oxidative stress and support healthy circulation in the scalp. Biotin and select amino acids contribute to healthy hair keratin, improving hair strand quality and optimizing hair follicle metabolic activity. The botanicals, ashwagandha and holy basil, help the body manage stressful stimuli and cortisol secretion, reducing stress-related hair loss. Saw palmetto blocks testosterone conversion to dihydrotestosterone which causes male pattern hair thinning in men and women. SHOP HAIR SUPPLEMENT
- Minoxidil. This is the gold standard for treatment of thinning hair. It can be taken orally (prescribed with a TELEHEALTH visit) or topically with our hair system. Pills or topicals done daily.
- PRF Scalp injections. Using your own growth factors from your plasma, injections are done in the scalp to stimulate hair growth. This is done usually as a 3 session series.
- Microneedling with Age Zero Exosomes. This is featured above. Again, this is done as a series of three, spaced about 4-6 weeks apart.
These are a range of treatments, varying in cost and frequency. They can be combined. Please see our blogs on hair restoration.
