Scalp Microneedling
Results vary from person to person. This information is educational and is not medical advice.
Scalp microneedling uses a device with fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the scalp. These tiny channels activate the body's wound-healing pathways, which may increase local blood flow and growth-factor expression while enhancing the absorption of topical treatments.
The Process
How It Works
Numbing & Preparation
The scalp is cleansed and a topical numbing agent is typically applied to keep the treatment comfortable before microneedling begins.
Controlled Microneedling
A specialized microneedling device is passed over targeted areas of the scalp, creating precise, controlled micro-channels in the skin.
Controlled Depth
Needle depth is adjusted to the treatment area so the micro-injuries remain controlled and consistent, which is central to a safe, even response.
Healing Response
The controlled micro-injuries prompt the body's natural healing cascade, which may support follicular activity and improve uptake of any recommended topicals.
Why Consider It
Potential Benefits
- Stimulates the scalp's natural wound-healing response
- Generally involves minimal downtime for most patients
- May enhance absorption of recommended topical treatments
- Complementary to PRP as part of a combination approach
- Considered safe for most patients after evaluation
- Targets specific zones of thinning where miniaturized hairs remain
Candidacy
Who May Be a Candidate?
May Be a Good Fit
- Thinning areas with visible miniaturized hairs still present
- Patients seeking a complementary therapy alongside PRP or topicals
- Those wanting to enhance absorption of topical treatments
- Individuals with a generally healthy scalp environment
Considerations
- Active scalp infections or inflammation in the treatment area
- Use of blood-thinning medications (discuss with your provider)
- Certain skin conditions that may require clearance first
- Advanced loss with minimal viable follicles remaining
Candidacy can only be determined through an appropriate clinical evaluation. Individual results vary.
