Hair Restoration
A treatment for balding and hair loss with noticeable results beginning in as little as six weeks!
Unlike treatments such as PRP, where there is a lot of discomfort during the treatment, blood sampling and a lengthy 1hr plus procedure, the ‘Hair Restoration Protocol’ with Levels Of You takes only 30 minutes, has minimal discomfort, requires no blood products to be used and comes with no downtime.
What does the treatment involve?
The treatment is performed by one of the Levels Of You health professionals. The treatment utilises micro-needling in conjunction with the proven benefits of two power packed serums.
The carefully selected formulations of ingredients have been widely used in monotherapy treatment regimes in large population groups across the globe providing great confidence in their safety and efficacy. After the initial six-week treatment course, a uniquely formulated home restoration serum is designed for each patient to continue taking their hair growth to new levels ongoing.
How does it work?
The Hair Restoration Protocol ‘HRP’, works by: promoting a longer growth phase of the hair cycle, so targeted hairs grow longer and thicker, recruiting dormant follicles back into action, whilst also reducing the number of hairs falling out. It also stimulates dormant pigment cells sitting at the base of the hair follicle to switch back on which leads to a richer hair colour.
Results seen across all primary hair factors:
- Reduction in hair loss
- Promotion of new hair growth through the recruitment of dormant follicles
- Thickening of existing hair
- Re-pigmentation of existing hair
- Coverage of ‘dead zones’
How long does the treatment take?
Approximately 20 mins total treatment time (patient dependent), with a total 30-minute appointment slot for each session.
Who is this treatment for?
Men or women who suffer androgenic alopecia or male/female pattern hair loss or balding, or balding due to stress, COVID, post-partum, chemical induced, traction alopecia, and weight loss associated hair loss. Ultimately, this treatment is a novel therapy for people who have mild-moderate hair loss.
It is NOT an investigation into numerous various causes for hair loss, for which it is always recommended a GP is sought to carry out blood tests and a workup to address the full list of possible causes for hair loss.
If someone is unsure, they can book a consultation with one of our Levels Of You doctors to discuss if they are a good candidate.
When do results show?
Results can be seen as early as six sessions into the treatment protocol, however during the initial three-month window is when results really start to reveal themselves. The results continue to improve over the following months where the patient is place on a home-based simple treatment program which takes two minutes per day. A progress review and maintenance treatment is scheduled for two-three months post-completion of the initial six-treatment protocol.
How long do results last?
It is recommended for best results that the Levels Of You home restoration program is followed in conjunction with a clinical booster treatment every two-three months with one of the Levels of You health care professionals.
Every patient begins their journey at different stages of hair loss, and our commitment is to support each individual ongoing to reach new levels of growth.
Does it hurt?
The treatment is very comfortable with minimal pain and no downtime. The treatment itself feels like a light scratch or abrasion as it is only very surface deep into the scalp and does not produce any bleeding or bruising.
What are the risks?
Some slight redness on the scalp can be experienced for 30 minutes to several hours post-procedure (however no blood is evident), and some mild irritation or itchiness can be experienced transiently in the first 24 hours.
There is a very low risk of hypersensitivity to the serum (approximately 2%) which can lead to redness and itching in the scalp; however, this will be managed directly with Dr Hopkirk if it occurs and is highly unlikely.
There is a risk as with any treatment that the desired results are not achieved and further treatments are required, OR referral to other professionals for additional options is provided.
Who will be performing the treatment?
The initial consultation will be hosted via telehealth with one of the Levels Of You doctors so you can enjoy the benefits of remote consulting from the comfort of your preferred private location/home. The procedure is then carried out by one of our Levels Of You registered nurses with ongoing reviews by the wider Levels Of You Medical Board.
What is the total treatment cost?
For cost estimation, it is important that you book a consultation with one of the Levels Of You doctors to establish the best treatment course for you as an individual.
