Your hair condition changes day by day. It seems like your crown used to be thick and voluminous. But what if you feel your hair is gradually thinning and becoming less dense? It is time to start worrying about hair loss. Hair loss, life’s eternal dilemma! Is there no effective solution?
Hair loss is divided into female hair loss and male hair loss.
Hair loss is influenced by hormones. In particular, the male hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT) weakens hair roots and causes hair to thin. It is characterized by a receding hairline and thinning hair on the crown.
Women are less affected by this hormone, so their symptoms are not as severe as those in men. Female hair loss exhibits a different pattern than that of men. While the hairline remains relatively intact, the hair thins overall, and the crown becomes patchy. The parting line gradually widens, and hair in the affected areas does not completely disappear. This is also known as “Christmas tree hair loss.”
Limitations of conventional hair loss treatment
There are two hair loss treatments approved by the FDA: finasteride and minoxidil. However, they have limitations. One major issue is that it takes a long time to see results. Many people wonder how long they have to take the medication and find it tedious and difficult. Furthermore, finasteride can affect pregnant women, so caution is required when taking it. Hair transplants are also extremely cumbersome. Managing hair loss requires a significant amount of time and effort.
Regenera Activa
To complement this, a new method has been employed: Regenera Activa, which utilizes your own hair follicle tissue. The principle behind it is stem cells! These are cells that can continuously differentiate into various types of cells. Stem cells can produce hair and also influence keratinocytes in the epidermis. Stem cells in the hair roots affect not only the surrounding sebaceous glands but also various adjacent tissues.
Regenera Activa harvests healthy hair follicle tissue from the scalp below the ears. This area is unaffected by hormones and is not prone to hair loss. The hair follicle cells and stem cells harvested from this site are then transplanted to the bald areas at the front of the head. Because stem cells from one’s own hair roots are transplanted, this procedure is also referred to as “micro autologous hair follicle stem cell transplantation.”
Regenera Activa, what are the effects?
Regenera Activa demonstrated the effects of restoring damaged hair follicles and promoting new hair growth. As a result, the cycle of hair rapidly transitioning from the growth phase to the regression or resting phase was lengthened. This is because the stem cells transplanted to the bald area were activated, improving the surrounding tissue environment. Thinning hair became thicker, and hair density per unit area increased.
The effects begin to appear after 3 to 6 months. After the procedure, you can expect improved scalp health and stronger hair. The effects of Regenera Activa can last for over a year, and additional treatments may be recommended as needed. Receiving the treatment every 2 to 3 years will help the effects last longer. However, if hair loss has progressed significantly and there are no hair follicles left, the possibility that the effectiveness may be limited cannot be ruled out. If you are considering a new hair loss treatment method, please consult with a specialist.
Who is it suitable for?
It is effective for androgenetic alopecia. This applies to cases where hair loss is not actually occurring, but rather the affected area expands, such as when the hair thins or appears increasingly sparse. It is particularly suitable for female pattern hair loss, where hair weakens and thins, creating an overall sparse appearance. It is also an appropriate procedure for men who have just begun experiencing hair loss. It is effective for reducing the frequency of medication or for those who wish to prevent hair loss in advance. It is also an excellent solution for those who find hair transplantation burdensome, as there is no pain or scarring.
Combination procedure with Juvelook
There is a way to double the effects of Regenera Activa. It is to receive the treatment together with Juvelook! Juvelook stimulates stem cells to generate new fibroblasts, which produce collagen and elastin. When Juvelook is applied to the scalp, the surrounding environment of the scalp changes.
If the environment of the treated area is poor, the effectiveness is bound to decrease. In this case, if the overall scalp environment is improved with the Juvelook procedure, the effects of the stem cell transplant are bound to be maximized, aren’t they? If you are considering the Regenera Activa procedure, please also consider combining it with Juvelook. It will be a way to maximize the effectiveness of the hair loss treatment and reduce the frequency of taking medication.
