Wellness Treatments For Hair & Scalp: What To Expect

Hair loss and thinning hair is an incredibly common concern for both men and women, with many different causes behind the problem… everything from age and genetics to lifestyle, stress and other psychological factors.

The good news is that if you are experiencing shedding or thinner locks, there’s a lot you can do to restore your hair’s vitality and return it to its former glory!

First of all, it’s important to identify the underlying causes of the issue so you can work out the most effective strategies to tackle it head on. 

Going to see your GP to have some blood tests done can rule out certain medical conditions and identify if you have any vitamin deficiencies that could be a contributing factor.

And if lifestyle might be a concern, you could consider cutting back on alcohol, quitting smoking, eating a well-balanced diet with lots of fruit, vegetables and lean protein, getting regular exercise and prioritising good-quality sleep on a regular basis.

As for mental health, working out what’s leading to excessive levels of stress or anxiety would be advisable - and you may want to consider speaking to a counsellor or therapist to help you overcome any stumbling blocks currently getting in your way.

Beyond that, however, there are various wellness treatments you can look into that will breathe new life into your hair and help you feel far less anxious about its general health.

Hair restoration techniques

One particularly effective way to rejuvenate your scalp and hair is to go for polynucleotide injections and microneedling treatments, a combined approach that we specialise in here at Warm Oasis.

Polynucleotides are natural molecules that serve as the building blocks for our DNA. They have a vital role to play in cellular repair and regeneration, and when injected into the scalp they can help support fibroblast production, increasing collagen and driving tissue repair. 

This in turn helps stimulate hair follicle regeneration while reducing inflammation and improving blood circulation, supporting stronger, healthier-looking hair.

The polynucleotide procedure takes approximately 30 minutes to complete, depending on the size of the treatment area, and you should experience minimal discomfort throughout. If you do feel pain, make sure you let your clinician know. 

Side-effects are rare and you should only experience slight redness or swelling, which will resolve themselves within a few days.

We combine this approach with microneedling, where a skin roller (fitted with tiny needles) is used across the scalp to stimulate new hair growth, driving collagen production by stimulating blood flow, oxygen and nutrients in the hair follicles.

Microneedling can also help increase absorption rates of other treatments, including polynucleotides, platelet-rich plasma, minoxidil and so on.

Your treatment journey with us will include an initial consultation, followed by the treatment and application of regenerative serums and aftercare advice. 

You should start to see a gradual improvement in your symptoms over several weeks following a full course of treatment - but if you have any concerns or questions, simply get in touch with the Warm Oasis team and we’ll be able to help.
