MESOTHERAPY FOR HAIR : SOLUTION AGAINST HAIR LOSS

What is hair mesotherapy ?

mésothérapie cheveux est un traitement médical qui consiste à injecter dans le cuir chevelu de faibles quantités d’actifs tels que l’acide hyaluronique, les vitamines du groupe B, les acides aminés, les minéraux, les oligoéléments et certains peptides afin de stimuler les follicules pileux. En améliorant la microcirculation et l’environnement biologique du bulbe capillaire, la mésothérapie aide à ralentir la chute des cheveux, à favoriser la repousse et à améliorer la densité ainsi que la qualité de la chevelure. Elle est particulièrement indiquée en cas d’alopécie androgénétique débutante, de chute de cheveux diffuse, saisonnière ou liée au stress, et peut être associée au PRP, au Minoxidil, au Finastéride ou à la greffe capillaire. À Genève, la mésothérapie capillaire s’intègre dans une prise en charge personnalisée de l’alopécie afin d’obtenir des résultats progressifs et naturels.

Données issues des études cliniques sur la mésothérapie cheveux 

La littérature sur la mésothérapie capillaire reste relativement limitée. Les recommandations internationales la considèrent aujourd’hui comme un traitement adjuvant (complémentaire) plutôt qu’un traitement de première intention.

  • Une revue systématique publiée dans le Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology montre que la mésothérapie capillaire peut améliorer la densité des cheveux et ralentir leur chute, notamment lorsqu’elle est associée aux traitements de référence de l’alopécie androgénétique. Les auteurs soulignent toutefois que des études complémentaires sont nécessaires.
  • Une revue publiée dans le International Journal of Trichology conclut que la mésothérapie constitue un traitement complémentaire intéressant dans l’alopécie androgénétique, en améliorant l’apport local en nutriments et la vascularisation du follicule pileux.
  • Une revue publiée dans Dermatologic Therapy rapporte que les injections intradermiques de vitamines, d’acides aminés et d’acide hyaluronique peuvent améliorer l’environnement biologique du follicule pileux et optimiser les résultats des autres traitements capillaires, notamment après une greffe de cheveux.
  • données scientifiques actuelles montrent que la mésothérapie capillaire présente un excellent profil de tolérance, avec des effets secondaires essentiellement limités à des rougeurs, une sensibilité locale ou de petites ecchymoses transitoires lorsque le traitement est réalisé par un médecin expérimenté.

How does hair mesotherapy work ?

Hair mesotherapy is an innovative and effective technique for treating hair loss and stimulating regrowth. It is based on injections of vitamins, minerals and amino acids directly into the scalp, creating an optimal environment for healthier hair follicles. But how does this method work ?
• Stimulation of microcirculation : the injections stimulate blood circulation in the scalp, which improves oxygenation of the follicles and increases the supply of essential nutrients.
• Direct supply of nutrients : this technique consists of injecting vitamins, minerals and essential amino acids directly into the follicles, strengthening the hair at the root and stimulating denser and stronger growth.
• Revitalizing action on “dormant follicles” : this technique can reactivate follicles in the resting phase, thus stimulating the growth of new hair and slowing down hair loss.
• Reduction of inflammation : the injected ingredients often have anti-inflammatory properties that help soothe the scalp, creating a healthier environment for the hair.
• Progressive and long-lasting results : although the effects appear progressively, hair mesotherapy provides long-lasting results for a healthier scalp and visibly strengthened hair.

The benefits of mesotherapy for hair

• Stimulation of hair growth : by directly providing hair follicles with the necessary nutrients, mesotherapy promotes faster and denser hair growth.
• Stimulation of regrowth.
• Reduction of hair loss : this treatment slows hair loss and strengthens weakened follicles.
• Strengthening of the hair : the injections reinforce existing hair, thus reducing breakage and shedding. The hair becomes thicker, stronger and more resistant.
• Improvement of scalp health : mesotherapy helps treat certain scalp issues such as dandruff and seborrhea.
• Reduction of hair loss.
• Non-invasive treatment : the procedure is quick and no recovery time is needed.

Indications for hair mesotherapy

Hair mesotherapy is particularly indicated for people suffering from hair loss, whether it is linked to stress, hormonal imbalances or nutritional deficiencies. This revitalizing injection technique is also recommended for patients who want to densify and strengthen their weakened or thinning hair. It is also suitable as a complement to treatments against alopecia, slowing the progression of baldness and stimulating the regrowth of stronger and healthier hair. The main indications are :
• Seasonal hair loss : ideal for slowing down shedding during natural hair-loss periods (autumn, spring).
• Androgenetic alopecia : mesotherapy can slow the progression of this form of alopecia and densify existing hair.
• Fine and fragile hair : this technique helps revitalize and strengthen the hair to restore more volume and density.
• Stress-related loss of density : this method combats stress-induced shedding and revitalizes the scalp.
• Nutritional deficiencies : mesotherapy provides essential vitamins and minerals directly to the follicles for a strengthening and nourishing effect.
Hair mesotherapy is a gentle and targeted solution for visibly strengthened hair and a healthy scalp.

Procedure of a hair mesotherapy session

A hair mesotherapy session takes place in several simple and painless steps.
First, Doctor Romano carries out a personalized assessment of the scalp to identify the areas requiring specific care.
The injections are performed using a mesotherapy gun, which makes the treatment precise and painless.
Depending on the type of hair concern, the doctor will choose the most suitable mixture to treat hair loss.
• Cellbooster Hair, an injectable product composed of stabilized hyaluronic acid enriched with amino acids and vitamins to nourish and revitalize the scalp.
• Customized blends.
• Injectables based on biomimetic peptides and hyaluronic acid, formulated to stimulate hair regrowth and improve hair density.

These injections are quick and well tolerated, and require neither anesthesia nor recovery time.
In general, a session lasts about 20 to 30 minutes, and several sessions spaced a few weeks apart are recommended for optimal results. At the end of each session, the patient can resume their activities without interruption.

Areas treated with hair mesotherapy

The treatment is applied to the entire scalp, primarily targeting areas where hair loss is localized.

Pre- and post-treatment guidelines for hair mesotherapy

To ensure the best results and avoid any discomfort, it is essential to follow certain instructions before and after a hair mesotherapy session.
Before the session, it is recommended to come with clean, dry hair, without styling products, to promote better penetration of the active ingredients. It is also advised to avoid anti-inflammatories or anticoagulants a few days before the treatment, after approval from the prescribing doctor, to limit the risk of bleeding or slight bruising.
After the session, it is preferable to avoid washing the hair for 24 hours in order to maximize the effectiveness of the injections. In addition, it is recommended to avoid intense sports activities, saunas and sun exposure for 48 hours to prevent any irritation of the scalp.

Protocol : how many hair mesotherapy sessions ?

The hair mesotherapy protocol is adapted according to each patient’s needs and the condition of their scalp.
In general, a hair mesotherapy course includes between 6 and 10 sessions for visible and long-lasting results.
The first sessions, at a rate of one per week, help stimulate microcirculation and intensely nourish the follicles.
Subsequently, the sessions can be spaced every two to four weeks to maintain the benefits of the treatment and promote long-term hair regrowth.
To preserve the results, maintenance sessions every 3 to 6 months are often recommended.

What results can be expected from hair mesotherapy ?

The results of hair mesotherapy are visible and progressive. The first effects appear after a few weeks : the hair becomes stronger, shinier, and the shedding begins to decrease. The thinned areas may show a slight regrowth, indicating that the follicles are being stimulated again.
To achieve long-lasting and optimal results, it is recommended to follow a complete protocol. This generally includes between 4 and 6 sessions, spaced two weeks apart. This frequency allows the hair follicles to regularly receive the vitamins, minerals, and amino acids necessary for capillary regeneration.
As the sessions progress, the hair gains density, volume, and vitality. Regrowth becomes more even, and the scalp appears healthier. To maintain the benefits, maintenance sessions may be suggested every three months.
In summary, capillary mesotherapy is an ideal treatment to stimulate regrowth, slow shedding, and visibly improve hair quality.

What is the rate for a mesotherapy session for hair in Geneva ?

The price of a hair mesotherapy session starts from 300 CHF. This fee includes the prior medical evaluation, the preparation of the injectable mixture (generally composed of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and sometimes hyaluronic acid) as well as the injections performed with a mesotherapy gun.
The cost may vary depending on the composition of the active ingredients used, and the protocol defined according to the type of alopecia (diffuse, hormonal, post-partum, etc.) or the patient’s objectives (stimulation of regrowth, slowing of shedding, improvement of density). An initial medical consultation makes it possible to establish an adapted treatment plan, with a personalized number of sessions.
In general, several closely spaced sessions are recommended during the initial phase, followed by more widely spaced maintenance to preserve the results. This progressive follow-up is taken into account in the therapeutic proposal, without any unexpected additional cost for the patient.
In Geneva, choosing hair mesotherapy in a medical practice guarantees care that complies with safety standards, with quality products and rigorous medical expertise.
