Microneedling for hair loss – not a hair loss treatment on its own
Scalp microneedling is used as a facilitator, it is not a treatment on its own. The microneedling action creates thousands of tiny micro channels. These microchannels enable more effective absorption of natural hair loss treatments.
These micro-channels also trigger an injury reaction to the cell resulting in a natural healing response.
Dermaroller for hair growth – dermaroller and microneedle are the same thing
The action and effect of both microneedle and dermaroller are the same, it is the needle length to be aware of. Scalp microneedle for hair growth should be 0.75mm. Also chose the right type of roller or needle product, that will not cause any further friction or pulling on the hair.
Microneedling at home – hair growth treatment at home
There are many professional services offering in clinic micronedling. Absolique Trichologist finds it is more effective when taught to do it at home. Hair growth treatment at home allows more frequent treatment application.
Microneedling at home should not be every day, allowing time for the healing response. Combination therapy treatment can be performed every second day or three times a week as a hair growth treatment.
Natural hair loss treatment – hair growth treatment
To be politically correct, microneedling will not stop hair loss. Microneedling is used as a hair growth treatment. Once you have had a professional diagnosis to uncover and address the cause of the hair loss, microneedle can be incorporated into hair growth treatment.
Because of the channels created, microneedling is best used with natural hair growth products. Presence of harmful ingredients in products can enter the body when used with microneedling.
