Non-surgical Hair Loss Treatment
A non-surgical treatment that manages the remaining hair according to the type of hair loss and scalp condition
ABOUT
What is non-surgical hair loss treatment?
- 01
Non-surgical hair loss treatment is a program that first assesses the extent of hair loss and the condition of the scalp and hair, then centers on oral and topical medications while combining scalp injections or PRP when needed.
- 02
Scalp imaging and any necessary tests are used to identify the type of hair loss and select treatment suited to the individual.
- 03
When sudden hair shedding, alopecia areata, or inflammatory hair loss is suspected, the cause is assessed first before deciding on a treatment direction.
HOW IT WORKS
How does it work?
Each treatment works differently. Finasteride and dutasteride reduce DHT production to slow the progression of androgenetic hair loss, while minoxidil is used to support hair growth.
PRP, scalp injections, and low-level laser therapy may be considered as adjunctive options depending on the condition. Prescriptions and combinations are determined by the type of hair loss, sex, and health status.

RESULT JOURNEY
How results may change over time
Changes in the amount of shedding may be noticed as early as around three months, but progress is generally compared after consistent treatment for at least three to six months. Changes in hair thickness and density may appear gradually over six to twelve months. Responses vary by individual, and maintained effects may diminish if medication is stopped.

RECOVERY & CARE
What to know before and after treatment
Before treatment
Tell us about any oral or topical hair-loss medications, anticoagulants, hormone medications, and underlying conditions. If you are pregnant or may become pregnant, be sure to inform the medical team. Sudden shedding, round bald patches, or severe scalp inflammation should be evaluated for the cause first.
Immediately after & recovery
Medication does not require a separate recovery period, but scalp irritation or systemic side effects may occur depending on the individual. After scalp injections, temporary redness, stinging, tenderness, or small areas of swelling may occur, though most people can continue their daily activities.
Aftercare
Do not increase or stop prescribed medication on your own; consult the clinic if you experience an unusual reaction. For 24 to 48 hours after scalp injections, avoid vigorous scalp massage, irritating shampoo, and hot hair dryers, and refrain from strenuous exercise and alcohol on the day of treatment.
