Hair peptides

Hair peptides stimulate the hair follicles to treat scalp and hair conditions such as thinning and hair loss.

What are hair peptides?

Hair peptides are bioactive amino acid compounds involved in the formation of proteins such as collagen. Their use stimulates hair follicles to treat scalp and hair conditions like hair loss, weakness, and low density.

In aesthetic medicine, they are used as injectables to enhance the effectiveness of the substance by delivering it directly to the hair follicle, particularly in cases of severe damage or hair loss.

What are hair peptides used for?

Hair peptides stimulate, revitalize, and strengthen the hair follicle. Collagen production (driven by amino acids), provides strength, elasticity, and resilience to developing hair, promoting healthy growth.

It is important to emphasize that hair peptides strengthen weakened follicles and stimulate their growth.

Benefits

The benefits of hair peptides include revitalizing damaged hair, promoting faster growth, increasing density for greater volume and thickness, and restoring overall scalp health. This is possible because the small size of the peptides allows them to penetrate the follicle and work from the inside out by reconnecting amino acid chains.

Duration

The duration of the effects of hair peptides depends on the condition of the scalp and hair, as well as the treatment plan prescribed.

Application process

At Dr. Juan Carlos Lloreda’s Aesthetic and Anti-Aging Medicine Clinic, peptides are applied through mesotherapy, using fine needles to inject the product into the scalp, allowing it to reach the hair follicles for maximum effectiveness.

Although the number of sessions may vary depending on the patient’s condition, a series of five sessions is generally recommended.

Expectations

It is crucial to maintain a consistent and disciplined treatment routine to achieve noticeable results in hair growth and restoration. The effectiveness depends on each patient’s individual characteristics, including the type of alopecia and their personal hair care habits.
