Clinical studies on the treatments we provide for hair loss, including male and female pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) and autoimmune hair loss disorders, have shown promising results. Here are some key findings from these studies:

1. Improved Hair Growth Phase: The treatments we offer have been shown to enhance the growth phase of the hair cycle. This means that it can stimulate hair follicles to produce healthier, thicker, and more robust hair.
2. Enhanced Scalp Health: The treatment can contribute to improved scalp health. A healthy scalp environment is crucial for supporting hair growth.
3. Increased Hair Count, Health, and Thickness: These treatments have demonstrated the ability to increase hair count, improve hair health, and thicken existing hair. These improvements typically become noticeable around 6-9 months after treatment.
4. Effective for Various Hair Loss Stages: Our procedures have shown efficacy in various stages of hair loss for both males and females. It can be beneficial for individuals experiencing different degrees of hair thinning and loss.

It's important to note that the effectiveness of any treatment for hair loss can vary depending on factors such as the patient's age, the duration of hair loss, and individual response to treatment. Therefore, the results may vary from person to person.

As with any medical procedure, it's recommended to consult with a qualified healthcare provider or dermatologist who can assess your specific condition, discuss your expectations, and determine whether the treatments we provide for hair loss are appropriate treatment options for you. Additionally, your provider can create a personalised treatment plan based on your unique needs and goals.

The frequency of treatments for hair loss can vary from person to person, and it often depends on individual factors and treatment responses. However, a common treatment protocol for hair loss management is as follows:

Initial Series of Treatments: A typical approach is to start with a series of 3 treatments, with each treatment session spaced approximately 4 weeks apart. This spacing allows for optimal results to develop and gives the scalp time to respond to the therapies.

Maintenance and Follow-Up: After completing the initial series of 3 treatments, many individuals return for periodic "top-up" or maintenance treatments. The timing of these follow-up sessions can vary depending on how patients perceive the maintenance of their hair growth. Some may return for a top-up treatment when they start to notice a decrease in hair thickness or density.

The need for maintenance treatments can be influenced by various factors, including the severity of hair loss, the individual's age, and their overall response to the procedures. It's essential to have a consultation with a qualified healthcare provider or dermatologist who can assess your specific hair loss condition and create a personalized treatment plan based on your needs.

Keep in mind that consistency with the recommended treatment plan and follow-up sessions is crucial to achieving and maintaining the best results to address hair loss. Your clinician at Gaia skin clinic can guide you on the ideal treatment frequency and help you track your progress over time.

Following treatment, it's important to follow post-treatment care instructions to ensure the best possible results and minimize any potential complications. Here are some common post-treatment recommendations:

1. Hair Washing: It's generally advisable not to wash your hair for at least 4 hours after the procedure. This allows the clinical products to be absorbed into the scalp.
2. Pain Relief: If you experience any discomfort or pain after the procedure, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like Panadol or Panadeine as directed on the packaging or as advised by your healthcare provider.
3. Avoid Anti-Inflammatory Medications: It's important to avoid non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as Nurofen and topical anti-inflammatory gels like Voltaren for 7 days following the procedure. These medications can interfere with the body's natural healing and regenerative processes.
4. Oral Steroids: Refrain from taking oral steroids like Prednisone for 7 days post-procedure unless directed otherwise by your attending doctor.
5. Aspirin: If you regularly take aspirin, you may typically resume it 48 hours after the procedure, unless your doctor advises otherwise.
6. Follow-Up Care: Attend any scheduled follow-up appointments or consultations with your healthcare provider to monitor your progress and address any questions or concerns you may have.

It's essential to strictly follow your clinicians specific post-treatment instructions, as they can vary based on the type of treatment and individual patient needs. Additionally, if you experience any unusual or severe side effects or complications after the procedure, contact Gaia skin clinic promptly for guidance and support.
