Hair loss is a terribly distressing condition no matter the cause. For anyone suffering from hair loss, it is important that we take a detailed medical history and thoroughly examine both your scalp and individual hairs with a magnifying tool. In some cases, bloodwork or a scalp biopsy may be required to determine the correct diagnosis.

The most common for of hair loss - androgenetic alopecia - affects the majority of men and up to 50% of women during the lifetimes. Unfortunately this is a progressive condition and treatments need to be continued for as long as we’d like them to work. Given that you might be committing to something long-term, it is important to review all the options and choose a path that is not only effective, but that also fits your lifestyle.

There are many large companies out there offering hair loss treatments, which is great in that it increases awareness and access to those suffering from hair loss. Unfortunately, most of these companies use a one-size-fits-all approach, failing to adapt with the ever-changing science or customize treatments to each individual patient. Dr. Finney recognizes that each patient is unique, and deserves a treatment plan tailored to them, that not only optimizes regrowth but ensures long-term stability.

Treatment routines can involve pills, customized topical solutions, and in-office treatments. Combination therapy often yields the best results. Dr. Finney continues to innovate in the field and has created his own treatment system, ScalpStim Pro, that can reduce the need for daily pills or messy at-home topicals.

No matter the stage or type of hair loss you may be suffering from, we are here for you. Set up your comprehensive consultation today and let us partner with you to help get your confidence back!

Developed by Dr. Robert Finney, and exclusive to Soho Skin and Hair Restoration, the ScalpStim Pro treatment system is a combination of carefully selected ingredients, delivered in a unique method to not only maximize regrowth but also provide the best available long-term hair maintenance.

Evidence shows that combination treatment for genetic hair loss will always yield the best results. Some ingredients are more effective for regrowth of dormant hair follicles, whereas others are necessary for maintaining results.

In androgenetic alopecia, susceptible men and women have follicles that are destroyed over time by a hormone called DHT. Blocking this hormone is a core focus of ScalpStim. Currently, the main commercially available method to block DHT is a daily pill. These pills are taken indefinitely, and they can have unwanted side effects. ScalpStim provides the most potent DHT-block available, but it is administered directly to the hair follicles, mitigating systemic absorption and avoiding undesirable side effects.

Optimizing the regrowth of dormant follicles requires a combination of other ingredients - most notably - growth factors. Research has shown that combining growth factors with DHT blockade yields superior results when compared to either treatment individually. Until the development of ScalpStim, this synergy of ingredients would require patients to take a pill daily, apply a topical treatment, and undergo in-office treatments regularly to achieve optimal results.

With ScalpStim, Dr. Finney has developed a treatment method to combine all of these necessary ingredients and deliver them directly to the hair follicles via a series of simple, in-office treatments. Scientific evidence has demonstrated that every element in the ScalpStim treatment is synergistic. The incorporation of each treatment modality and ingredient is deliberate, yielding efficient and effective hair restoration.

ScalpStim includes an initiation treatment series, followed by maintenance treatments. Treatments are carefully scheduled in order to reawaken dormant hair follicles as effectively as possible. Once the initial regrowth phase is optimized, we transition to a maintenance phase to maintain and enhance results.

This procedure involves utilizing growth factors from our body's own platelets to stimulate hair growth. This method is a natural way to help restore hair since we extract the growth factors from your own blood.

The process involves a simple blood draw. We then process the blood and extract the serum that is packed with platelets. Lastly, we inject this serum into the scalp.

Once injected, PRP can decrease shedding as quickly as one week! So not only is it effective at regrowing hair, but it can also help avoid the increase in shedding associated with the introduction of other hair loss treatments.

Similar to platelet-rich plasma - TED utilizes growth factors to stimulate hair growth. As we age, the our platelets and all cells lose some of their regenerative property. For this reason, the scientists at Alma created a serum packed with biomimmetic growth factors so that we can ensure a high level reach the follicles where they are needed.

This device is unique for two main reasons:

1. Powerful Hair Growth Serum - proprietary blend packed with science-backed biomimetic growth factors.

2. Pain-Free - its trademarked delivery system gets the growth factors down into the hair follicles WITHOUT needles.

Dutasteride is one of the most potent molecules to treat genetic hair loss. Currently, it is commercially available as a tablet to take by mouth or as a topical solution to apply to the scalp. Neither are FDA approved for hair loss, but both forms have plenty of data to prove how effective they are. Unfortunately the oral form of the medication can have systemic side effects, while topicals can make the hair feel greasy and be annoying to apply.

How we prevent both of those issues: Mesotherapy with dutasteride - which involves injecting tiny, concentrated droplets of the molecule superficially into the scalp, directly to the follicles. Because dutasteride has a very long half-life, it has been proven to help prevent hair loss for up to 3 months post-treatment.

By performing mesotherapy, there is very little absorption of the medication into your body, mitigating the risk of side effects that come with the oral form of the medication. It also penetrates more effectively than the topical version, yielding better results.
