You can find out what type of hair loss you have in your case from our doctors in a free initial, non-binding consultation. There will also be a medical examination of your scalp. In this procedure, images of your scalp are taken to determine the quality of your hair. Cutting your hair is not necessary during this initial consultation. The results are available for immediate evaluation. Based on this examination, the doctor will draw up an individual treatment plan for you.
The two most common forms of hair loss are androgenetic alopecia (hereditary hair loss) and diffuse alopecia.
Androgenetic alopecia:
• Is hereditary
• Occurs in almost 90 percent of all men over the age of 21
• Increasingly common in women.
Androgenetic alopecia affects the temples and the back of the head: a receding hairline forms on the temples and a tonsure in the form of bald spots occurs on the back of the head.
The diffuse alopecia:
• Manifests itself with progressive hair loss
• Is distributed over the entire scalp
• Very common in women
• Is associated with thinning, lifeless hair.
The causes of diffuse alopecia include, for example, malnutrition, various drugs and stress.
The number of grafts you can have transplanted in one session depends on several factors. These include the size of the recipient area, the density in the donor area, the tools used and the experience of the transplanter. The sapphire blade used allows for the highest precision and density, as well as a more natural result.
As with any surgery, there are some risks and possible complications associated with hair transplantation using the sapphire technique. These include infection, post-operative bleeding, temporary sensitivity changes and swelling. In addition, there may be undesirable scarring or uneven hair growth in rare cases. It is therefore important to get thorough advice from our experienced specialists before the hair transplant operation and to carefully follow the instructions for aftercare following the procedure.
The sapphire technique offers several advantages. The use of sapphire blades allows for more precise and even channels, which can result in a more natural appearance of the transplanted hair. In addition, the sapphire technique minimises the risk of scarring and infection and allows for faster healing.

A hair transplant is the transplantation of body hair. Hair transplants are performed for hair loss in both men and women.
A hair transplant takes 2.5 to 8 hours - depending on the treated section.
Yes! Our long hair variant is especially popular with women, but is also offered for men.
It depends on the area of the hair transplant. In some cases it is necessary to wear a headband for the first three days after the treatment.
Not necessarily. In one of the most common problem areas of men, tonsure, people won't notice anything after the treatment. The hair is taken out and put back in place without cutting a bald spot. Due to the localization at the back of the head, there is no need for a headband to prevent swelling of the face. And the patient can sit at his desk and work the very next day.
In case of a full hair transplantation in a bald patient, the red dots with the inserted grafts would certainly be seen on the scalp for 2-3 weeks and this patient would also have to wear a headband for the first fe
We also offer the hair transplant without shaving the head. However, there are only a few cases in which we consider doing so. This is currently only possible for clients with long hair and only if the hair transplant is for the receding hairline. In this case, the head is not completely shaved, as in the case with the normal hair transplant, but only the donor area and about 2 cm of the recipient area towards the middle of the head, in order to insert the hair without a transition. Shaving the donor area is always necessary, because only in this way hygiene and correct removal of the grafts can be guaranteed.
However, it is recommended to always do the procedure with a shaving if there is a desire for a good and lasting result. Therefore, it should always be weighed up with our specialists on a case-by-case basis whether a hair transplant without shaving is worthwhile.
Yes, we accept Paypal & Klarna (UK) so you can pay in any one of their finace offers.
Theoretically, there is no age limit for hair transplants. For example, hair transplants for children who lost parts of their hair due to accidents or burns, are a medical necessity.
Practically, hair transplants are not recommended for people under the age of 25, because in most cases the hair loss is not completed yet. If transplanted too early, the grafted areas are resistant to progressive loss, but the natural hair would continue to be lost. This would leave lonely islands of hair on the bald head if the hair loss continues.
It is therefore recommended that a hair transplant is only executed when the hair loss has stopped or is in a late stage. The anamnesis and the examination results are therefore decisive so that the transplantation is executed at the right time in life.
If a patient decides to have a hair transplant at a young age, contrary to the recommendation, it is possible that more interventions need to be carried out in the future.

he sensation of pain is subjective, therefore it is not possible to make generalisations. Most of our patients find local anaesthesia bearable. Others find it unpleasant. In such cases, RHC Clinics offers the possibility of anaesthetising the skin with a pain-relieving technique. In this way, the pain experienced during anaesthesia is minimised. If you are interested in this option, please ask us about it during your consultation.
Because the transplanted hairs are optimally supplied with a PRP treatment. The PRP treatment improves the growth rate and thus the success of the transplant!
low grower or fast grower - your genetics depend on which growth type you are. In general, however, new sprouting hair becomes visible after about three months. Finally, after 12 to 18 months you will see the final result.
n principle, yes. Mental performance is not minimized by the procedure. However, we recommend that you do not engage in any physical activities for 1 week and do not expose yourself to extreme weather conditions.
The result of the Sapphire FUE technique is permanent as the follicles from the donor area are resistant to the hair loss hormone DHT.
It usually takes 12-18 months for the transplanted hair to grow back completely and for you to enjoy your new hair.
The recovery time after the saphire treatment is usually a few days to a week. This is considerably faster than other hair transplant methods.
Hair transplantation with the sapphire technique is performed under local anaesthesia, which is why the transplantation itself is painless. The local anaesthetic is the only unpleasant part of the treatment. After the operation, there may be some slight swelling and pain, but this can be easily controlled with painkillers.
For safety reasons, we strongly recommend that our clients do not drive themselves after a hair transplant, as the local anaesthetic can affect their ability to drive and their ability to react in traffic. Please arrange to be picked up on the evening of the procedure.
Yes. A hair transplant is suitable for both women and men. Particularly popular with women: The long hair transplant, which is offered by us for male and female patients. In long hair transplants, the hair in the problem area is not shortened. Only a strip at the back of the head, which serves as the donor area, is shaved. The size of the shaved strip varies according to the amount of grafts needed. After harvesting the grafts, the shaved area can be covered with the existing hair so that no bald spots are visible.
You can find all prices by contacting ua via Phone, Whatsapp or Email.
Swelling and redness are frequently observed after the treatment. Very rarely, inflammatory reactions may occur in the donor or transplantation area. The hair transplant using the FUE technique is minimally invasive and is performed under local anesthesia.
• There is no risk of anesthesia
• No visible scars remain
• The risk of infection is minimal
The sapphire technique offers several advantages. The use of sapphire blades allows for more precise and even channels, which can result in a more natural appearance of the transplanted hair. In addition, the sapphire technique minimises the risk of scarring and infection and allows for faster healing.
After a hair transplant, there are some things you should definitely take care of!
Avoid sunshine as much as possible and stay in cooled rooms. This will benefit your scalp. Sweating can hurt and affect wound healing.
Follow the guidelines and advice of the treating physician.
In the first two weeks after your hair transplant, you should avoid sports if possible. After this time you can safely start again with “light” sports such as yoga. However, it is better to wait four weeks before practicing any ball sports or martial arts, for example.
Avoid alcohol and other drugs for at least two weeks.
We exclusively use the FUE method (Follicular Unit Extraction) for a [hair transplant](/en/hair transplantation). This involves the individual removal of hair follicles from the donor area, preparation in a saline solution and reinsertion in the affected areas. This treatment method is as gentle as possible, requires only minimal invasive procedures and there is no need for a complete shave. Don’t be surprised – the transplanted hair will fall out again after about 3 months, but they will grow back and afterwards you'll have them for life. You can see the complete result after about 12-18 months.
Everything is possible, from receding hairline and tonsure to combinations of both - even full baldness! You can find out which sections will be treated during your first free, non-binding consultation. At the consultation, the doctor will work with you to create a treatment plan that is customized to your needs.
A [hair transplant](en/hair transplantation) is necessary when bald patches can no longer be treated in any other way. In some cases, when the hair is only thinning or brittle, a PRP treatment can already lead to the desired result.
Three good reasons speak for PRP:
PRP hair root treatment can reduce hair loss.
shaky, thin, brittle hair can become dense, full and strong again following the therapy.
transplanted hair is more likely to grow in a new place in combination with PRP hair root treatment.
Our doctor accompanied by the medical practice assistants.
One session takes about 30 minutes.
PRP stands for Platelet Rich Plasma.
This is highly concentrated plasma, rich in platelets and numerous growth factors. These fine platelets contain the body's own collagen and hyaluronic acid and serve as a valuable growth concentrate for the cells of the skin and also as a biological filler material for wrinkle injections.
During PRP treatment, a maximum of 20 milliliters of the patient's own blood is taken with a syringe. The platelets are isolated from this blood using a special centrifuge. PRP extraction takes place in a closed system under sterile conditions. After only 10 to 15 minutes, the body's own PRP concentrate is ready for use. The kits used are specially designed for this treatment and are used only once for your maximum safety.
Already a short time after the first PRP treatment, the first results show - often after two to three weeks. Suddenly, we lose significantly less hair. And of course this is noticeable the look of our hair. It becomes visibly stronger, more voluminous and more lively.
After the first peak phase, a little more patience is required. It is not until two to three months later that hair growth steps on the gas pedal again - but then all the more strongly. Hair loss is demonstrably reduced, leaving the coat with a much fresher and more youthful impression.
Fortunately, nature can now be given a little help. Those who have four to five sessions carried out at intervals of three to four weeks increase the success of the treatment. The hair not only grows faster, but also stronger.
The golden rule when it comes to hair loss: The earlier, the better. It is best to start treatment immediately after the diagnosis of hair loss. The sooner the damaged hair roots receive the rich blood plasma, the quicker and more successful the treatment will be.
The hair loss is already more advanced? Then the treatment requires more time and patience. The reason: The hair roots are already more damaged and need more regeneration time.
No. Hair length does not play a role in the treatment.
No. PRP is injected via tiny needles. No scars of any kind remain.
You should not go out in the sun on the same day and also avoid sports activities. After that you can pursue any activity.
Studies have scientifically proven that PRP autologous blood treatment shows significant improvement in both forms of hair loss. And this both in the quality and growth of the hair.
The scalp is a pain-sensitive area. Consequently, PRP treatment can also be perceived as painful. We use a pain-relieving ointment to ensure that your treatment is more pleasant. Thanks to the latest technology, the depth of the puncture can be individually adjusted and adapted to the patient.
Yes, you will be able to work and socialize after the treatment.
PRP treatment should not be carried out in the case of:.
Autoimmune diseases, blood coagulation disorders, hepatitis, HIV*, cancer, liver diseases, neurodermatitis, psoriasis, pregnancy.
PRP treatment is also not recommended for acute or chronic skin diseases in the area of the scalp and face.
*Even though HIV disease is not an explicit contraindication, PRP autologous blood treatment at RHC Clinics are not performed on people with HIV.
For optimal treatment success, we recommend four to eight sessions at intervals of 4 weeks.
To achieve a lasting effect, regular repetition of the application leads to the goal.
An FUE Beard transplant is a cosmetic procedure that involves the extraction of individual hair follicles from a donor area (often the back of the scalp) and their transplantation into the beard area to enhance beard density, fill in patches, or create a desired beard shape.
Good candidates for an FUE Beard transplant are individuals with thin, sparse, or uneven beard growth due to genetics, scarring, trauma, or medical conditions. Ideal candidates also have sufficient donor hair available for transplantation.
A beard hair transplant is closely related to the classic hair transplant. First, there is a detailed consultation with the doctor in charge. Here the patient has the opportunity to express his wishes, ideas and concerns. Then the doctor explains the medical options and draws the outline of the desired beard. He always includes the existing beard hair.
Only after these preliminary discussions the actual beard transplantation takes place. Here the physician dedicates himself first to the donor area, which is usually on the back of the patient's head. The reason: Here the hair roots are virtually immune to the notorious hair loss hormone DHT. But that's not all: the hair roots at the back of the head also strongly resemble the beard hair in terms of structure and thickness. And the greater the similarities, the more harmonious the result.
Now the physician removes single hair follicles from the back of the head and stores them temporarily in a nutrient solution. In this way, they are only minimally cut off from the skin's natural nutrient supply, which greatly increases their chances of survival. In the popular FUE technique (Follicular Unit Extraction), the individual hairs are now prepared for beard hair transplantation in meticulous detail and transplanted along the natural direction of growth.
Important: On the head, our hairs grow in small groups. Up to four hairs are in one group. With the beard it is different. It is composed of many individual hairs. And this is exactly what must be taken into account during transplantation.
In order to be able to transplant the individual hairs into the beard, the physician exposes tiny openings in the skin. These serve him, so to speak, as mini-channels for the grafts.The beard transplant takes several hours. During the entire procedure, however, the patient remains conscious. He can read, watch TV or talk to the staff. Nevertheless, the procedure is painless for him. With local anesthesia, he does not notice the individual steps of the treatment.
And what about the regeneration after the beard transplantation? This is also limited. Already after a few days the patient is fully socially acceptable again.
However, beware: A few weeks after the procedure, the transplanted hair may fall out again. But there is no need to panic. This process is completely normal after beard transplantation. After 1 to 6 months, the lost hair already grows back vigorously and permanently. And this youthful fresh final result now lasts a lifetime. Thus, a beard transplant is not a temporary solution like minoxidil or finasteride. It is a solution for the long term.
Beard growth is as individual as our eye color. How quickly and densely the beard grows depends entirely on our genetic material. Here are some general guidelines about beard growth:
You want a casual three-day beard à la David Beckham? Then you'll usually have to be patient for 3 to 5 days.
1 centimeter beard would not be bad? Then count on 25 to 33 days.
A full beard of at least two centimeters in length has always been your dream? Then expect to wait 50 to 66 days.
A stylish hipster beard with a length of 5 centimeters is exactly your style? Perfect, in 4 to 6 months you might have reached your goal.
You want to break the current world record of 5.33 meters? A mammoth task: 36.5 to 49 years of patience are now coming your way.
Good to know: For a well-groomed appearance, it is not only a dense beard growth that counts. The sideburns also play a role. Only if they harmonize with the beard, the final result looks fresh, youthful and vital.
Just like the hair on the head, the beard hair in men lives dangerously. Because would you have thought that almost every second man has to struggle with sparse beard growth or even beard loss at least once in the course of his life? But what can be the reason for this?
This is often not so easy to answer. After all, there are several possible causes for hair loss. Let's take a look at the most common causes together.
Most often, genes are to blame for sluggish beard growth, better known as androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Because the hereditary or constitutional hair loss unfortunately does not stop at the facial hair. Almost 80 to 95 percent of all cases of hair and beard loss are related to genetic predispositions.
Hormonal fluctuations are just as conceivable. A testosterone deficiency in particular can have a negative effect on our beard growth. Tumors as well as inflammations or injuries of the testicles are often to blame for the deficiency. The same applies to a congenital protrusion of the testicles, also called cryptorchidism. However, chronic stress or an unbalanced diet are also not to be underestimated.
A rarer form of beard loss is called alopecia areata, better known as circular hair loss. The special feature of this disease: circular bald patches form in the beard, about the size of a coin. The cause of alopecia areata is still unclear. However, experts assume an autoimmune disorder of the body. In other words, the immune system fights itself. It even actively attacks healthy hair cells.Good to know: Stagnant hair growth is no longer an unsolvable problem. With the help of a professionally performed hair or beard transplantation, thinning areas can be easily, quickly and effectively thickened again. Within a very short time, t
Local anesthesia is used during the procedure to numb the donor and recipient areas. Most patients report minimal discomfort, and any post-procedure pain can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.
The duration of the procedure varies based on the number of grafts being transplanted, but it typically takes several hours.
Recovery involves some redness, minor swelling, and scabbing in the beard area, similar to a mild sunburn. The scabs typically fall off within a week. Full healing and results can take several months as the transplanted hairs go through shedding and regrowth phases.
Yes, once it has healed completely, the transplanted beard hairs can be shaved, groomed, and styled like natural beard hair. They will continue to grow just like the rest of your beard.
An Eyebrow FUE transplant is a cosmetic procedure that involves the extraction of individual hair follicles from a donor area (usually the back of the scalp) and their transplantation into the eyebrows. It's used to enhance the fullness, shape, and appearance of the eyebrows.
The eyebrow transplant is closely related to the classic hair transplant. First, there is a detailed consultation with the responsible hair transplant specialist. Here the patient has the opportunity to express their wishes, ideas and concerns.
Afterwards, the hair transplant specialist explains the medical options and draws the outline of the desired eyebrow. In order to obtain the most natural result possible, the transplanter includes the already existing eyebrow area in the planning. He always includes the existing eyebrow hair.
Only after these preliminary discussions the actual transplantation takes place. Here, the transplanter first devotes himself to the donor area, which is usually located on the back of the patient's head.
The reason: here the hair roots are virtually immune to the notorious hair loss hormone DHT.
But that's not all: the hair roots at the back of the head also closely resemble the eyebrow hairs in terms of structure and thickness. The advantage of this is that the greater the similarities, the more harmonious the result.
Now the transplantation specialist removes the hair follicles from the donor area using the FUE method (Follicular Unit Extraction - Method) and immediately after the removal, he reimplants them one by one along the natural growth direction into the patient's eyebrow area. Thanks to this innovative gentle method, the removal holes heal again in a short time, so that and no scars remain.
Important: On the head our hair grows in small groups, which include up to four hairs.
However, eyebrows are different: they are composed of many individual hairs. Consequently, eyebrow transplantation and head hair transplantation differ decisively in this point. Therefore, eyebrow transplantation - despite a smaller number of grafts - also takes several hours. However, during the entire procedure, the patient remains completely conscious. Nevertheless, the procedure is absolutely painless for them, because thanks to local anesthesia they do not feel anything from the individual treatment steps.
The great thing about an eyebrow transplant at RHC Clinics is that no shaving of the eyebrows is necessary. The eyebrow transplant specialist transplants the new hairs between the existing eyebrows.
Only the donor area at the back of the head needs to be shaved for the removal of the hair follicles. In the case of an eyebrow transplant, the donor area is located at the lower back of the head, as the hair is thinner at this part and for that reason it fits better for the eyebrows.
The speed of our eyebrow growth is as individual as our eye color. How quickly and densely they sprout therefore depends entirely on our genetic predisposition. Depending on the genetic predisposition, the new eyebrow hair of some patients can grow back in record time, while others take more time to grow back.
As a rule, it can be assumed that the hair grows by about 0.3 millimeters per day during the growth phase - which lasts about one month in the case of the eyebrows. This is followed by a resting phase in which the hairs in the brow remain but no longer grow longer. In the next phase, the newly gained eyebrow hair falls out for a short time, and then grows back completely. Here’s a little patience required to finally marvel at the permanent end result.
Experience shows that it takes about 4 months until the newly formed hair roots begin to sprout.
Since eyebrows are shorter than the scalp hair, it can generally be said that the result of an eyebrow transplant is more quickly recognisable than that of a hair transplant.
Local anesthesia is used during the procedure to numb the donor and recipient areas. Most patients report minimal discomfort, and any post-procedure pain can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.
The duration of the procedure can vary depending on the number of grafts being transplanted, but it typically takes a few hours.
Local anesthesia is used during the procedure to numb the donor and recipient areas. Most patients report minimal discomfort, and any post-procedure pain can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.
Recovery is relatively quick. There may be some redness and minor swelling in the eyebrow area for a few days. Tiny scabs will form where the follicles were transplanted but should heal within a week or so. Complete healing and full results can take several months.
Transplanted eyebrow hairs behave like scalp hairs and are permanent. However, some natural hair shedding might occur within the first few weeks after the procedure. The final results can be seen around 6 to 12 months after the transplant.
Yes, the transplanted eyebrows can be styled, trimmed, and maintained like natural eyebrows. It's important to follow the surgeon's instructions for proper care to ensure the best results.
Botox, or botulinum toxin, is commonly used for cosmetic purposes to temporarily reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines by relaxing the underlying muscles. Here are some of the common areas that can be treated with Botox:
1. Forehead Lines: Botox can be injected into the forehead to reduce the appearance of horizontal lines that form when you raise your eyebrows or express surprise.
2. Frown Lines (Glabellar Lines): These are the vertical lines that appear between the eyebrows when you frown. Botox can help smooth out these lines and create a more relaxed appearance.
3. Crow's Feet: These are the fine lines that radiate from the outer corners of the eyes when you smile or squint. Botox can soften these lines and make the eyes look more youthful.
4. Bunny Lines: These are the lines that form on the nose when you scrunch it, often referred to as "bunny lines." Botox can help smooth these lines.
5. Brow Lift: Botox can be strategically injected to create a slight lift in the brows, opening up the eyes and giving a more youthful appearance.
6. Chin Dimpling: Botox can be used to reduce the appearance of dimpling or "pebble chin" that occurs when you contract the chin muscles.
7. Neck Bands (Platysmal Bands): Botox can be injected into the muscles of the neck to reduce the appearance of vertical bands or cords.
8. Matessa (Jawline): Masseter Botox is often used to achieve a more slender and V-shaped appearance of the face. By relaxing the masseter muscles, which can be overdeveloped in some individuals, the lower part of the face may appear less square and more contoured.
9. Excessive Sweating (Hyperhidrosis): Botox can be used to treat excessive sweating in areas like the underarms, palms, and soles of the feet by blocking nerve signals that trigger sweat production.
Botox is a brand name for botulinum toxin, a purified protein derived from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. When used in tiny, controlled amounts, it can temporarily relax muscles and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
Botox works by blocking nerve signals that cause muscles to contract. When injected into specific muscles, it temporarily paralyzes them, which can lead to a reduction in wrinkles and lines caused by muscle movements.
A Botox treatment typically takes around 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the number of areas being treated. It is considered a quick and minimally invasive procedure.
Most people describe the sensation as a slight pinprick or stinging sensation during the injection. The discomfort is usually brief. Some Botox formulations also contain a local anesthetic, which can help minimize discomfort.
It usually takes a few days to a week for the effects of Botox to become noticeable, and the full results may take up to two weeks to develop. The muscles gradually relax, and the treated area appears smoother.
The results of Botox treatments typically last around 3 to 4 months, but this can vary depending on individual factors, the area treated, and the dosage used. Over time, as the effects wear off, muscle movements and wrinkles may gradually return.
Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, bruising, and tenderness at the injection sites. These usually resolve within a few days. Rare side effects can include asymmetry, eyelid drooping, and allergic reactions.
Yes, Botox can be combined with other cosmetic treatments, such as dermal fillers or skin rejuvenation procedures, for a more comprehensive approach to addressing facial aging.
Good candidates for Botox are individuals seeking to reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles caused by muscle movements. It's important to have a consultation with a medical professional to discuss your goals and determine if Botox is suitable for your needs.
Dermal fillers are injectable substances that are used to restore volume, smooth out wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. They are commonly used to address signs of aging, such as sagging skin and loss of volume.
Dermal fillers can be made from various substances, including hyaluronic acid, calcium hydroxylapatite, poly-L-lactic acid, and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA). Hyaluronic acid fillers are among the most popular and widely used due to their natural compatibility with the skin.
Dermal fillers are injected into specific areas of the face to add volume and plump up the skin. They can also stimulate collagen production, which enhances the skin's elasticity and suppleness. The results are often immediate, and they can last for several months to a year, depending on the type of filler used.
Dermal fillers can address various cosmetic concerns, including:
• Filling in wrinkles and fine lines
• Restoring volume to areas such as cheeks and lips
• Enhancing facial contours, such as the jawline or chin
• Softening the appearance of scars and depressions
• Improving the appearance of dark under-eye circles
• Hand rejuvenation
Most dermal fillers contain a local anesthetic or are combined with lidocaine to minimize discomfort during the injection. Patients might still feel a slight pinch or pressure, but the procedure is generally well-tolerated.
The duration of results varies based on the type of filler used and individual factors. Hyaluronic acid fillers typically last around 6 to 18 months, while other types of fillers might have longer-lasting results.
Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, bruising, and tenderness at the injection sites. In rare cases, more severe side effects like infection or allergic reactions can occur. Choosing a qualified and experienced healthcare provider can help minimize these risks.
Hyaluronic acid fillers can sometimes be partially reversed using an enzyme called hyaluronidase. This enzyme breaks down the hyaluronic acid filler, allowing for adjustments or corrections if needed.
Good candidates for dermal fillers are individuals seeking non-surgical solutions to address facial volume loss, wrinkles, and contours. It's important to have a consultation with a medical professional to determine if dermal fillers are suitable for your specific concerns.
Downtime is usually minimal after dermal filler injections. Some redness and swelling at the injection sites are common, but these typically subside within a few days. Makeup can usually be applied immediately after the procedure.
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that involves using a device with fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This process stimulates the skin's natural healing response, leading to increased collagen and elastin production, which can improve the skin's texture and appearance.
Microneedling can offer several benefits, including reducing the appearance of scars (acne scars, surgical scars), wrinkles, fine lines, enlarged pores, and stretch marks. It can also enhance skin texture and overall skin tone.
During a microneedling session, a specialized device with tiny needles is gently passed over the skin's surface. The needles create controlled punctures, which stimulate collagen production. The procedure can be performed by a dermatologist, plastic surgeon, or licensed aesthetician.
Sensations during microneedling can vary. Some individuals might experience mild discomfort or a tingling sensation, while others might find it slightly more uncomfortable. Topical numbing creams can be applied before the procedure to minimize any potential pain.
The number of sessions required depends on the specific skin concern being treated. For mild issues, a few sessions might be sufficient. More severe concerns, such as deep scars, might require multiple sessions spaced a few weeks apart.
After microneedling, there is typically some redness and mild swelling, similar to a sunburn. This usually subsides within a day or two. Some individuals might also experience slight peeling as the skin regenerates. Makeup and skincare products should be avoided for the first 24 hours after the procedure.
Yes, microneedling can be combined with other treatments such as serums, PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy, or growth factors to enhance the results. Your provider will guide you on the best combination for your specific concerns. See our Combination PRP page for more information/
Most individuals can be candidates for microneedling. It's effective for various skin types and tones. However, individuals with certain skin conditions or those taking specific medications might not be suitable candidates. Consultation with a RHC Doctor or Specialist will determine your eligibility.
Results can vary depending on individual factors and the severity of the skin concerns. Some people might see improvements after just one session, while others might require multiple sessions for more noticeable and longer-lasting results. Maintenance sessions are often recommended to sustain the benefits.
Mesotherapy is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that involves injecting a mixture of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and other active substances directly into the skin's middle layer (mesoderm). It is often used for skin rejuvenation, cellulite reduction, hair loss treatment, and localized fat reduction.
The injected solution contains various nutrients that are believed to promote skin health, stimulate collagen production, improve circulation, and break down fat cells. By targeting the mesoderm, the treatment aims to deliver these beneficial substances directly to the area in need.
Mesotherapy is used for a range of cosmetic concerns, including:
• Skin rejuvenation and anti-aging
• Cellulite reduction
• Hair loss (alopecia)
• Localized fat reduction
• Scar improvement
• Stretch marks
The level of discomfort during mesotherapy can vary depending on the individual's pain tolerance and the area being treated. Some people might experience mild discomfort, while others could feel a slight stinging sensation during the injections. Topical anesthetics or numbing creams can be applied before the procedure to help minimize discomfort.
The number of sessions required can vary based on the specific concern being addressed and individual response. For skin rejuvenation and hair loss, multiple sessions (usually 3 to 10) are often recommended, spaced a few weeks apart. For other concerns like fat reduction and cellulite, more sessions might be necessary.
Common side effects of mesotherapy include temporary swelling, redness, bruising, and soreness at the injection sites. In some cases, infection, scarring, or allergic reactions to the injected substances can occur. It's important to choose a qualified and experienced medical professional to minimize these risks.
Good candidates for mesotherapy are generally in good overall health and have realistic expectations about the outcomes of the procedure. It's essential to have a consultation with a qualified healthcare provider to determine if mesotherapy is appropriate for your specific concerns.
When performed by a trained and licensed medical professional, mesotherapy is generally considered safe. However, as with any medical procedure, there are potential risks and side effects. It's crucial to discuss your medical history and any concerns with the healthcare provider before undergoing treatment.
Results can vary from person to person. Some people may experience noticeable improvements that last several months, while others might require maintenance sessions to sustain the results over a longer period.
