Hair loss, also known as alopecia, is a common condition that affects both men and women. It can arise from various causes, including genetic predispositions, hormonal changes, dietary imbalances, stress, or certain medical conditions. Though not physically harmful, hair loss may have significant psychological effects, impacting self-esteem and confidence.
Innovations in hair restoration have led to non-surgical treatments like hair loss injections, which may help nourish hair follicles and support hair density.
At White Hill Clinic, we offer hair loss injectable treatments that may help address hair thinning concerns. Our experienced medical team will work with you to develop a personalised treatment approach based on your individual needs.
What are Hair Loss Injectables?
Hair loss injectables refer to treatments where specialised nutrients and growth factors are delivered directly to the scalp, which may help support hair follicles.
At White Hill Clinic, we offer hair loss injectables which include:
- Mesotherapy: A treatment that may help support scalp health and hair appearance through the delivery of nutrients to the scalp. During your consultation, your practitioner will discuss whether this option might be suitable for your specific situation.
- Growth Factor Treatments: A treatment that utilises your body’s natural growth factors, which may help support scalp health. Your practitioner can explain during your consultation whether this approach might be appropriate for your needs
- Hyaluronic Acid Injections: Hyaluronic acid injectables, a treatment involving scalp injections to promote blood flow and hair follicle nourishment, have shown effectiveness in stimulating hair growth but require multiple sessions for optimal results.
Mesotherapy Treatment
Mesotherapy is a minimally invasive technique that involves injecting a specially formulated cocktail of nutrients into the scalp.
This treatment may help nourish the hair follicles with ingredients like biotin, folic acid, and amino acids, which are commonly associated with hair health.
- Ingredients: The nutrient solution typically includes vitamins, amino acids, and minerals, which may help support hair growth and hair density.
- Treatment Process: Using a fine needle, the formula is injected into targeted areas of the scalp, with each session lasting about 30 minutes. The process is generally well-tolerated, with little to no downtime required.
- Results and Benefits: Patients may see improvements in hair thickness and density after a series of sessions. While initial changes may appear after a few treatments, ongoing sessions are often recommended for sustained improvements.
Growth Factor Therapy
Growth factor treatment uses growth factors extracted from the patient’s own blood.
This process involves drawing a small amount of blood, processing it to isolate the growth factors, and injecting these directly into the scalp.
Growth factors are proteins naturally found in the body that may help support cell growth and tissue repair, potentially benefiting hair follicle health.
- Procedure: The treatment involves a straightforward process where the patient’s blood is drawn, processed, and reinjected into the scalp. Each session takes around 30-45 minutes, depending on the treatment area.
- Benefits: By reintroducing growth factors directly to the scalp, this procedure may help support blood circulation and nutrient delivery to hair follicles, potentially supporting hair regrowth and thickness.
- Safety and Tolerability: Since growth factors are derived from the patient’s own blood, there is a reduced risk of allergic reactions, making this a generally well-tolerated option for those seeking hair restoration treatments.
Hyaluronic Acid Injections
Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in the body that helps to keep the skin and tissues hydrated. In recent years, hyaluronic acid has gained popularity as a treatment for hair loss. Hyaluronic acid injectables involve injecting a solution of hyaluronic acid into the scalp to promote hair growth.
The injections are typically administered using a fine needle, and the treatment takes around 30 minutes to complete. Hyaluronic acid injectables work by promoting blood flow and nutrient delivery to the hair follicles, which stimulates hair growth.
Several studies have shown that hyaluronic acid injectables can be an effective treatment for hair loss. For example, a study published in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology found that hyaluronic acid injections improved hair growth in 70% of patients after four sessions.
Patients can return to their normal activities immediately after treatment. However, it is worth noting that hyaluronic acid injectables are not a one-time treatment, and patients may need multiple sessions to achieve optimal results.
How Hair Loss Injectables Work
Both mesotherapy and growth factor treatments work on a similar principle: delivering essential nutrients and stimulants directly to the hair follicles. By bypassing the outer layers of the scalp, injectables provide targeted support where it’s needed most.
- Improved Blood Circulation: Injectables may help enhance blood flow in the scalp, which may increase nutrient availability to the follicles.
- Nutrient Infusion: Direct delivery of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids provides the hair follicles a concentrated dose of supportive nutrients.
- Reduced Inflammation: Some ingredients may help create a healthy scalp environment by supporting normal inflammation processes, which may benefit follicle health and hair thickness.
Both treatments are designed to work over time, with patients potentially noticing gradual improvements in hair thickness and growth after several sessions.
Potential Benefits of Hair Loss Injectables
Hair loss injectables may offer various benefits, especially for those experiencing mild to moderate hair loss or thinning:
- Non-Surgical and relatively painless with minimal downtime
- Targeted treatment for specific areas, focusing on hair follicle health
- Can be customised to suit individual hair health needs
- Offers potential improvements in hair thickness, density, and regrowth when part of a series of sessions
- May help improve scalp health, which can support long-term hair vitality
Patients considering these treatments should understand that results vary based on individual response, treatment frequency, and other lifestyle factors.
Recovery and Cost
Hair loss injections are generally associated with minimal recovery time. Most patients can return to their daily activities immediately after treatment, although some may experience mild redness or tenderness in the treatment area, which typically resolves within hours.
As results accumulate over multiple sessions, the overall cost of hair loss injectables varies based on the number of treatments, the treatment areas, and individual goals. We provide an individualised treatment plan and cost breakdown during the consultation, ensuring transparency and patient-specific care.
Am I a Good Candidate for Hair Injectables?
Ideal candidates are individuals experiencing mild to moderate hair loss, generally in good health, and without active scalp infections or other conditions that may complicate treatment. Those with genetic hair thinning, early signs of hair loss, or post-hair transplant patients may benefit from these treatments.
However, certain individuals, such as those with skin infections or bleeding disorders, should avoid these treatments. A comprehensive consultation at White Hill Clinic can help determine the suitability of these procedures based on personal medical history and hair health goals.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does mesotherapy work as a hair loss treatment?
Mesotherapy is a hair loss treatment that involves injecting vitamins, minerals, and amino acids directly into the scalp which may help support hair growth. The carefully formulated solution may help nourish the follicles by supporting blood flow and delivering nutrients. While results vary, many patients in the early stages of hair loss see gradual improvements in hair growth and density after multiple sessions, though ongoing treatments may be required for sustained effects.
Can mesotherapy help with androgenetic alopecia?
Mesotherapy may offer benefits for individuals with androgenetic alopecia in its early stages by delivering active ingredients directly to the hair follicles. This hair loss treatment can help stimulate hair growth and support healthier, denser hair. However, as androgenetic alopecia is typically a progressive condition, results vary, and treatments may be ongoing to maintain any improvements achieved.
How many sessions are needed for noticeable hair growth and can a single treatment be effective?
Although each patient’s experience differs, hair loss treatments like mesotherapy often require multiple sessions—typically 6 to 10—for optimal results. While a single treatment may provide minor improvements, consistent sessions are usually necessary to achieve and maintain visible changes in hair growth and thickness.
What should I expect from a hair loss treatment with mesotherapy at White Hill Clinic?
Mesotherapy at White Hill Clinic is designed to stimulate hair growth through nutrient infusion directly to the scalp. The treatment involves injecting vitamins and essential nutrients that may help support healthier hair over time. While mesotherapy generally involves minimal downtime, multiple sessions are typically needed to experience the full benefits, and ongoing maintenance may be recommended depending on individual hair health goals.
