When hair is lifeless, weak and dull, it is unpleasant. But when they begin to remain in bunches on the comb, this is already frightening and alarming. Mesotherapy will help cope with dehydration, seborrhea and baldness. What is this procedure? How is it carried out? Is it possible to do it at home? Read our article!

The essence of hair mesotherapy (injections into the scalp)

Mesotherapy is an injection method of introducing drugs (meso-cocktails) into the scalp, aimed at improving local blood supply and saturating the hair follicles with microelements.

Reference! Hair follicles are located 2 mm from the surface of the skin. It is to this depth that the mesotherapy drug is injected.

The session takes about 40 minutes. The therapeutic course consists of 8 – 10 procedures, depending on the severity of the problem. Despite the fact that the injections are carried out with special ultra-thin Labelle needles, the procedure is quite painful. If necessary, the doctor uses anesthetic drugs.

Main types of drugs

Various groups of drugs have vasodilating properties. Some block calcium channels, reducing the tone of the muscular lining of the arteries. Others act on brain receptors, that is, indirectly.

Drugs differ according to the degree of toxicity: the number of contraindications, the volume and frequency of side effects. Therefore, self-medication is unacceptable, and only the attending physician can prescribe certain medications. In addition, dosages in each individual case are selected individually, in accordance with the diagnosis, existing contraindications, and general condition.

Calcium antagonists

Penetrating through special channels in the cell membrane into the myocytes, calcium ions cause excitation and, accordingly, an increase in the tone of the vascular wall. Blocking these channels allows you to eliminate tension in the smooth muscle fibers and thus dilate the blood vessels. As a result, blood pressure decreases, blood circulation and oxygen flow to the brain tissues increase.

The first calcium channel blocker was Verapamil, later Nifedipine and Diltiazem were developed. They have been used for a long time to treat cerebrovascular pathologies, but now drugs for the cerebral vessels of the second, new generation are more often used - Anipamil, Isradipil, Nimodipine, Clentiazem. These drugs are characterized by prolonged action along with fewer unwanted side reactions.

Drugs in this group affect vascular tone directly or indirectly. In the first case, they interact with adenosine receptors of the central nervous system, in the second, they control the processes of accumulation and breakdown of the neuromodulator adenosine. The latter is responsible for vasodilation, as well as platelet aggregation and calcium channel permeability.

Medicines such as Papaverine, Dipyridamole, Pentoxifylline allow you to optimize the sensitivity of prescriptions and control the amount of neuromodulator. Under their indirect influence, the vascular wall relaxes and blood flow accelerates.

When in contact with adrenergic agonists (medicinal or endogenous origin) and norepinephrine, postsynaptic alpha-adrenergic receptors cause vasoconstriction. Drugs from the alpha-blocker group shield receptors from mediators, thereby causing relaxation of smooth muscles.

They are divided into selective and non-selective. The first include Terazosin, Alfuzosin, Doxazosin, the second - Phentolamine, Nicergoline, Butyroxane, ergot alkaloids.

Nootropics

These drugs are intended, first of all, to improve the higher integrative functions of the brain - memory, thinking, and learning abilities. This effect is achieved by activating blood circulation, eliminating hypoxia, restoring nerve cells and connections.

Some drugs act directly on the cells of the nervous tissue, while others stimulate brain activity indirectly - improve cerebral circulation, activate the flow of oxygen to the brain, and optimize the rheological properties of the blood. The most effective nootropic with complex action is Piracetam.

Various herbal remedies, the active ingredients of which are ergot or periwinkle alkaloids, as well as extract of the gingko biloba plant, help to dilate cerebral vessels and improve blood flow. Like synthetic drugs, they have a relaxing effect on the tone of the smooth muscle lining of the arteries, providing increased blood flow, lowering pressure, and preventing adhesion and aggregation of blood cells.

It is a mistake to consider herbal preparations safe and to treat blood vessels with them without a doctor’s prescription. Products such as Cavinton, Bravinton, Tanakan also have contraindications with side effects.

Antioxidants

All tissues of the body are susceptible to the negative effects of free radicals formed as a result of cell activity. Special chemical compounds called antioxidants help reduce the harmful effects. The most famous of them are vitamins C and E, which are found in many foods and are also part of multivitamin complexes.

Some synthetic drugs intended to restore cerebral circulation also have antioxidant activity. For example, Mexidol with the active ingredient ethylmethylhydroxypyridine succinate.

To achieve better blood supply to the blood vessels of the brain, doctors prescribe the following groups of medications:

• vasodilators - vasodilators;
• preventing thrombus formation - antiplatelet agents, anticoagulants;
• nootropics that affect higher brain activity;
• alpha-blockers - lower blood pressure, relieve spasms.

Once in the human body, these medications have a complex effect on blood vessels and blood cells:

• dilate blood vessels;
• reduce platelet aggregation;
• reduce blood viscosity;
• increase the plasticity of red blood cells;
• provide brain cells with glucose and oxygen, increasing their resistance to hypoxia.

Medicines for improving memory and cerebral circulation belonging to the group of nootropics are considered popular. They restore brain function after hypoxia, strokes, and skull injuries, but do not affect blood circulation. Nootropics stimulate metabolic processes in affected tissues. This group of drugs includes:

• Piracetam and analogues;
• Pyridoxine and its derivatives (Encephabol);
• neuroamino acids - Phenibut, Pantogam, Picamilon (has a strong calming effect), Glutamic acid, Glycine;
• choline alphoscerate;
• ginkgo biloba and its derivatives;
• Cerebrolysin;
• Sodium hydroxybutyrate – has a strong hypnotic effect.

At the first signs of cerebrovascular insufficiency, it is recommended to take the homeopathic drug Golden Iodine. It helps cope with tinnitus, headaches, unsteady gait and memory loss. Doctors do not always have a positive attitude towards homeopathy, but if the patient, with the help of a specialist, selects the appropriate one (for example, Microhydrin), the effect will be pronounced and stable.

Vitamins

Excipients will work well to improve blood circulation in the brain. Vitamins become an important element of complex therapy:

• Ascorutin is a drug with vitamin C and rutin, intended to strengthen the walls of capillaries, prescribed prophylactically;
• nicotinic acid - prescribed only by a doctor, used for electrophoresis, improves blood supply to the brain in case of cervical osteochondrosis;
• B vitamin complexes – Milgamma, Pentovit, Neuromultivit.

Tablets to improve cerebral circulation can also be vasodilators. They affect not only the blood vessels of the brain, but also the circulatory system as a whole, improve the supply of oxygen and nutrients to cells, and stabilize blood flow. Vasodilator drugs include:

• calcium antagonists (dihydropyridines) – blockers of slow calcium channels, relax arterial walls without affecting venous ones;
• Cinnarizine, Phezam, Omaron are the latest generation drugs that affect the entire body and are used as prescribed by a doctor;
• first generation - Nifedipine, Finoptin, Diazem;
• second generation - Isradipin, Klentiazem;
• third generation - Norvasc, Amlodipine.

Anticoagulants and antiplatelet agents will help reduce blood viscosity and improve its fluidity. Due to their properties, cerebral circulation is normalized. Drugs are used if there is a risk of ischemia. The following medications are recognized as the most effective:

• antiplatelet agents (prevent the formation of blood clots) - Aspirin, Aspilate, Akuprin, Curantil, Trental;
• anticoagulants (improves microcirculation of capillaries) - Warfarin, Clexane, Heparin. Fraxiparine.

Flavonoids

Vascular preparations (flavonoids) are designed to improve blood circulation in the brain due to tonic and strengthening effects. They cleanse the body of toxins. The group includes herbal preparations, the use of which does not affect the functioning of the heart. Excipients from flavonoids are:

• ginkgo biloba preparations (Tanakan, Bilobil) - relieve spasms, improve microcirculation, relieve swelling, lead to normalization of intracranial pressure;
• products with Vinca minor (Cavinton, Vinpocetine) are antispasmodics, prevent the formation of blood clots, and increase the speed of blood flow. They can only be prescribed by a doctor; self-medication is unacceptable, since these are potent medications that have a number of contraindications.

Antiplatelet agents

Antithrombotic drugs that reduce blood viscosity and prevent blockage of blood vessels are called antiplatelet agents. Taking them increases capillary microcirculation and improves blood flow. These include:

• angioprotectors - Curantil, Doxy-Chem, Vasonit, Pentoxifylline - are available in dragee format, solution for infusion, tablets;
• tablets and solution for intravenous administration - Anginal, Coribon, Trankocard, Aprikor, Parsedil.

Among the potent drugs for improving cerebral circulation are drugs that include nicotinic acid. They do not affect large vessels, but expand capillaries, strengthen their walls and lower cholesterol levels in the blood. They are used only as prescribed by a doctor (injection solution or tablets) and under supervision to prevent complications and side effects. Here are some popular drugs:

• Enduratin;
• Nikoshpan;
• Nicofuranose;
• Acipimox.

Drugs for improving blood circulation in the vessels of the brain from the group of microcirculation correctors control the condition of capillaries, improve general well-being, neutralize dizziness, unsteadiness of gait, and alleviate symptoms of chronic and acute diseases. The duration of the course of treatment is determined by the doctor depending on how severe the disease is. Popular drugs are:

• Betaserc (Betagistin);
• Vestibo;
• Tagista.

Indications and contraindications for

Mesotherapy is used to eliminate the following problems:

• Baldness caused by hormonal imbalance (after illness, pregnancy).
• Dandruff or seborrhea.
• Violation of water balance.
• Increased dryness and brittleness of hair.
• Split ends.
• Premature gray hair.
• Thinning of hair due to repeated bleaching.
• Lichen.

Despite the wide range of problems that can be solved, mesotherapy has a certain list of contraindications . It is prohibited when:

• pregnancy;

Advantages and disadvantages

The advantages of mesotherapy include the following:

1. Active components work directly in the area of ​​the problem.
2. Visible changes after a month's course, significant changes after six months.
3. The achieved result is maintained for 1.5 years.

Disadvantages also exist, but they are rather conditional:

1. Discomfort – the process itself cannot be called pleasant. Often anesthesia must be used.
2. Cost – mesotherapy is significantly more expensive than standard cosmetic procedures.
3. Side effects - such situations are quite rare and occur only if the wrong drug is selected or the doctor is incompetent.

Are you afraid of getting injections for hair growth?

Not really

What drugs are used?

The list of drugs used may vary depending on the clinic or salon. Let's consider the most popular complexes:

• F-Hair – nourishes and strengthens hair follicles, solves the problem of slow hair growth. It contains: panthenol, magnesium, biotin, zinc, calcium, hyaluronic and pyruvic acids.

• Dermaheal HL – improves microcirculation in the tissues of the scalp, thereby activating hair growth. Stops hair loss, makes hair thicker and shinier. Prevents early gray hair. It contains more than 50 active microelements, including biotin, folic acid, cytosine, argintine, riboflavin, ascorbic and folic acids.

• Meso Hair System - has a positive effect on the structure of the hair shaft, saturating them and smoothing the scales. Contains Coenzyme Q10, keratin and hyaluronic acid, which has a positive effect on the scalp.
• Mesopecia – the product is aimed at combating hereditary baldness or restoring hair lost as a result of illness (taking heavy antibiotics, etc.).

Important! The choice of drug for mesotherapy should be made by a qualified doctor, based on the anamnesis and clinical picture.

Composition of injections

The following microelements are often found in mesococktails:

1. B vitamins : biotin, nicotinic acid, riboflavin, folic acid, pyridoxine, cyanocobalamin. They are responsible for metabolic processes and the preservation of pigment in the hair shaft.
2. Copper peptide and zinc – prevent degeneration of hair follicles.
3. Amino acids (threonine, lysine, arginine, lycein, etc.) - strengthen the hair texture by forming kerotin fibers and strengthening the turgor of the scalp.
4. Coenzyme Q10 - nourishes cells with energy, normalizes the structure of strands, improves microcirculation.

What should not be included?

As mentioned earlier, for each specific case the doctor chooses the drug individually, depending on the therapeutic goal. The products should not contain synthetic compounds, aggressive chemicals or chemicals.

Products to improve the condition of blood vessels

Nutritionists have identified which foods strengthen blood vessels and improve cerebral circulation.
The list of foods necessary for normal nutrition of the vascular walls includes honey, dried apricots, nuts, raisins, fresh fruits and vegetables. Carrots, cranberries, eggplants, apricots, cabbage, and greens are especially useful. To find out how to improve the condition of blood vessels and normalize blood circulation, just remember about foods that are rich in vitamins PP and E. These are legumes (beans, peas, lentils) and cereals (oats, buckwheat, corn). It is worth regularly adding river and sea fish to your diet, which contain a large amount of microelements and polyunsaturated fatty acids. Nutritionists advise against eating sausages, frankfurters and other processed meat products, dishes with large amounts of refined sugar, flour, fats and starch fractions.

In medicine, cerebrovascular accident is a malfunction of the blood vessels in the brain and spinal cord. This pathological process affects arteries and veins, causing thrombosis, embolism, narrowing of the lumen, and aneurysms. Depending on the severity of the disease and its location, doctors prescribe various drugs that promote recovery.

Medicines can be used to significantly improve cerebral circulation for the following indications:

• hemorrhagic stroke;
• cerebral infarction;
• hemorrhages;
• foci of tissue necrosis;
• scarring;
• small cysts.

Each brain disease is unique, and the progression of the disease can be accompanied by individual problems. However, there are some common symptoms, if they occur, you should consult a doctor for a detailed examination and prescription of medications:

• coordination problems;
• memory problems;
• sensitivity disorder;
• paresis, paralysis;
• epileptic seizures;
• dysfunction of the sensory organs.

Popular drugs for cerebrovascular accidents help normalize the functioning of the body after illnesses - atherosclerosis, stroke, injuries, osteochondrosis, hypertension. Medicines can relieve dizziness, improve memory, and relieve headaches. They can be used to eliminate the consequences of already cured diseases.

To dilate cerebral vessels, doctors often prescribe injections to patients. With injections, the active substances penetrate the blood faster, tone the walls of blood vessels, providing maximum effect. Medicines with which injections can be performed are divided into the following groups:

• neurotropic action - affect nerve tissue (Validol, Reserpine);
• myotropic – affect muscles and fibers (Papaverine, Dibazol);
• mixed from the group of nitrates - Nitroglycerin, Nitrosorbitol;
• based on periwinkle alkaloid - Vincetine, Vinpocetine, Cavinton, Telektol, Bravinton - eliminate vasospasm, expand the lumen, improve metabolism in tissues, eliminate blood clots;
• based on nicotinic acid – Enduratin, Nikoshpan – affect capillaries, eliminate cholesterol plaques;
• vasodilators - Drotaverine (No-shpa), Eufillin, Piracetam.

In old age, people often experience ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke, leading to disruption of brain function. To improve functionality and blood circulation, the following drugs are used:

• to reduce and destroy blood clots - Prourokinase, Streptokinase, Activator;
• to reduce the risk of embolism - Fraxiparine, Clexane;
• anticoagulants – Warfarin, Sinkumar;
• antiplatelet agents – Aspirin, Ticlopedine, Dipyridamole;
• dextrans (to increase circulating blood volume) – Reopoliglyukin, Reomacrodex;
• for high blood pressure - ACE inhibitors;
• vasodilators - Pentoxifylline, Trental;
• for recovery - nootropics, dietary supplements.

Types of injections in the head for hair growth

Cocktails for injections into the scalp can be divided into two main types:

Allopathic

Aimed at combating alopecia (baldness), dry scalp, dandruff and split ends. Thanks to the interaction of components of natural and plant origin, they stimulate the production of collagen in fibroblasts, improve blood circulation and strengthen the walls of blood vessels.

Homeopathic

They are used to activate the body's internal reserves, awaken dormant hair follicles, and strengthen hair shafts. They are made on the basis of placenta, intracellular enzymes, vitamins and streptococcus.

Note! Extracts from medicinal herbs and plants can be added to the composition of homeopathic meso-cocktails.

Substances for heart health

To maintain the heart muscle, the diet must contain the optimal amount of vitamins and microelements. List of vitamins for the blood vessels of the brain and heart:

• Vitamin A. This vitamin is fat-soluble, stimulates metabolism and prevents the appearance of atherosclerosis. Retinol is present in carrots, milk, and fish oil. Pharmacy chains offer retinol acetate in the form of an oral solution.
• Vitamin C. Dissolves in water, activates metabolism, destroys bad cholesterol, strengthens the heart muscle. Ascorbic acid in the required quantity is found mainly in plant products. The richest in it are rose hips, currants, citrus fruits, and sweet peppers. Ascorbic acid comes in the form of tablets, dragees, and injection ampoules.
• Vitamin E. Soluble in fat, prevents fat oxidation, prevents the formation of free radicals that destroy the heart and blood vessels. Most tocopherol is found in vegetable oil, nuts, and liver. Sold in capsule form and as a solution.
• Vitamin R. The substance dissolves in water, strengthens blood vessels, prevents bleeding. Rutin is present in sufficient quantities in rose hips, apples, and citrus. Rutin is sold in tablet form.
• Vitamin B1. It dissolves in water and is necessary for normal contraction of the heart muscle. A lot of thiamine is found in cereal porridges. To eliminate the deficiency, injections will be used.
• Vitamin B6. Removes harmful cholesterol, restores normal functioning of blood vessels in the eyes, nose, brain, stimulates lipid metabolism. Legumes, fish, meat, and milk are rich in pyridoxine. As a rule, if there is a deficiency, doctors prescribe injections with pyridoxine hydrochloride.
• Vitamin F. Polyunsaturated fatty acids are compounds similar to vitamins. Protect blood vessels from the formation of cholesterol plaques. Fatty acids are found in vegetable oils, seafood, and fish.
• Coenzyme Q 10. An enzyme synthesized in the human liver if the body receives enough plant and animal products. Its deficiency increases the likelihood of myocardial infarction, and the body begins to age rapidly.

Injections for hair growth - which is better, mesotherapy at home or in a salon?

The home mesotherapy procedure is carried out slightly differently - instead of needles, there is a special device, the massage roller of which is covered with thin needles - a mesoscooter. With its help, you can achieve blood flow to the scalp and improve the absorption of beneficial microelements from the cocktail.

The good thing about this home procedure is that:

• costs less than salon injection mesotherapy;
• does not require regular visits to the doctor’s office;
• does not require the ability to give injections.

However, this practice is not suitable for everyone, because:

• does not guarantee the result of the salon procedure;
• requires complete sterility.

Reference! Home mesotherapy is more suitable for prevention, while salon therapy is more suitable for the treatment of serious illnesses and deep recovery.

How injections are given into the scalp for hair growth in a beauty salon

Preparation for the salon procedure should begin 3-4 days before the expected date. It is necessary to stop taking blood thinning drugs in advance. Immediately before going to a specialist, your hair should be washed with shampoo and combed thoroughly. Balm and mask cannot be used. The sequence of actions of the specialist is as follows:

1. Preparation. The injection area is disinfected with an antiseptic drug, and anesthesia is administered if necessary.
2. Working on a problem area. The specialist makes pinpoint injections at a distance of 1.5 - 2 cm from each other. Before the injection, the skin is slightly stretched between the fingers to reduce pain.
3. Completion. At the end of the procedure, the skin is treated with chlorhexidine and a light massage is performed to ensure uniform absorption of the drug.

Reference! The mesococktail is injected not only into the scalp, but also into the cervical spine.

Mesotherapy technology

Injections can be administered either manually or using a mesoinjector - a special gun with needles. Manual technique is considered the most painless, hardware technique is considered the fastest.

A healthy lifestyle is the key to longevity

It is very easy to weaken the blood vessels, bring them into a decrepit state, it is enough to lead a sedentary lifestyle, eat a lot of fatty and sweet foods, smoke and drink alcohol in excessive quantities. But restoring the blood vessels of the brain will require a lot of strength and patience from a person. To strengthen you need:

• Movement.
• Water procedures.
• Refusal from nervous overload.

Is it difficult to force yourself to do morning exercises? Instead of taking the bus to work, walk. Give yourself plenty of time for this hike as it may suddenly become harder than you think.

Swimming is one of the sports that has the greatest impact on a person. All muscle groups should work in water, giving an even load on the internal organs. At the same time, blood circulation is trained and vascular tone increases.

Give preference to active recreation; it is not necessary to go kayaking in a stormy river; it is enough to regularly go for a walk in a nearby park, go ice skating once a week, or jump rope.

To avoid stress, relieve yourself of some of the responsibility at work, and agree with your family and friends on a calm resolution of conflicts.

Remember that only an experienced specialist can select vitamins for the head after studying the patient’s medical history and assessing the person’s general physical condition. He will recommend truly strengthening vitamins needed by the brain.

Injections for hair growth on the head at home - step-by-step instructions

Offers of mesotherapy procedures can be found in aesthetic clinics, beauty salons and even some hairdressers. But some people prefer to carry out the procedure at home, because it does not require special skills or complex equipment. To carry out the mesotherapy procedure at home, use the following instructions:

1. Wash your hair with shampoo, comb thoroughly and dry with a hairdryer.
2. Immerse the rollerball in rubbing alcohol to disinfect. After 10-15 minutes, remove and dry.
3. Treat the scalp with an antiseptic and, if necessary, an analgesic.
4. Apply the product to the roller and massage the scalp, moving from the forehead to the base of the neck. Roll the roller slowly for 30-40 minutes.

Note! When choosing a mesoscooter, pay attention to the number and length of needles; as a rule, their length varies from 0.15 to 2.5 mm. The longer the needles, the greater the risk of bruising and wounds.

Can it be done at home?

Mesotherapy cannot be done at home. Injections are given only in clinics, beauty salons and by private cosmetologists at home.

The cost of mesotherapy on the scalp varies from 1.5 to 5 thousand per injection, depending on the drug, the clinic’s price list and the doctor’s qualifications. The duration of the procedure itself is about 15-20 minutes. You can try to find a private cosmetologist and discuss with him the composition of more budget-friendly components.

Another option is to use a mesoscooter. A clear advantage is that the procedure can be carried out independently. But the mesoscooter is not as effective as injections because:

• The depth of the punctures is small, the penetration of drugs into the skin is worse;
• The drug consumption is higher;
• The mesoscooter needles quickly become dull (you will have to change them every 10-12 sessions);
• It is necessary to know the physiological and pharmacological compatibility of the administered drugs. Therefore, if you choose it as a budget alternative to hair mesotherapy, it is better to use it at home, either ready-made cocktails or single components. For example, pharmacy vitamins. One type for each procedure session.

Yes. And along with the high cost, pain is the main disadvantage of mesotherapy for hair. But it all depends on your pain threshold. If you can tolerate injections in the arm or buttocks, then you can tolerate injections in the scalp a little. Moreover, the needle is inserted under the skin to a significantly shallower depth than a conventional injection. Particularly sensitive areas are the areas near the ears and the back of the head.

After the procedure, you cannot wash your hair or visit the pool or sauna for at least 3 days.

And another piece of advice: you should not perform the procedure during PMS and menstruation, as pain sensitivity is higher these days.

In case of intense hair loss or severe androgenetic alopecia, the first 4-5 sessions of mesotherapy are done every week, then the course of treatment is repeated once every 2 weeks and then switches to a maintenance regimen once a month. The duration of the maintenance regime depends on how quickly the hair is restored. If hair loss is not intense or you want to do the procedure for prevention, then 7-10 times every 2 weeks will be enough.

But if you have already decided to fork out for injections, you should understand that miracles do not happen. And in 1-2 procedures the expected result will not be achieved; the effect after mesotherapy becomes noticeable around the 4th. And in order to consolidate it, the treatment course must be completed to the end.

Is it allowed to perform the procedure at home? To do this, use a special tool - a mesoscooter, which is presented in the form of a roller with needles. When used, tiny scratches are left on the scalp through which valuable components penetrate. It is not prohibited to use a mesoscooter. But this procedure can only be performed as a preventive measure. If hair loss is severe, the effect will be small.

Compositions in ampoules, which are used intramuscularly or into the scalp, are considered the best remedies for hair loss. If you choose the right medications, the procedures will quickly stop hair loss and return your hair to its previous thickness.

How is the recovery period after the procedure?

The injections leave microtraumas on the scalp - they heal quickly, but in order to avoid infection, you will have to take into account a number of time restrictions:

• During the day after the procedure, you must refrain from water procedures, the use of styling products and head massage.
• For the first 2-3 days after the procedure, you should only go outside wearing a hat or covering your head with a scarf. You should also avoid using a solarium.

Reference! Pain and itching of the head may persist for 2-3 days. If possible, it is better to spend them at home, adhering to bed rest.

Possible complications

If the rules of mesotherapy are not followed, the following complications may occur:

1. severe bruising;
2. infections;
3. allergic rashes;
4. granulomas;
5. redness of the scalp;
6. unbearable itching.

Reference! Be extremely careful when choosing a master! Most often, complications develop due to violations of technology and sanitary standards of the procedure.

Efficiency

Upon completion of the therapeutic course, the effect becomes noticeable to the naked eye.

• The appearance of the hair improves - the hair becomes softer, silkier and thicker.
• Lost shine and vitality are restored.
• Dandruff and itching disappear.
• The hydrolipid balance is normalized.
• Dormant hair follicles are activated and hair loss stops.

Cost of the procedure in the salon

The final cost will depend on several components:

• Clinic: the city in which it is located, the equipment and medications used, the experience of the specialist.
• Objective: treatment, recovery, prevention.

The average cost of mesotherapy in Moscow ranges from 2000 to 4000 per session . To treat seborrhea (dandruff) you will need only 3-4 sessions, while for alopecia (baldness) a course of 10-20 procedures will be required.

How much will mesotherapy cost at home?

The cost of the home procedure is determined depending on the price of the mesoscooter and mesococktail. On average, a mesoscooter costs from 900 to 2500 rubles . Meso cocktail - from 1200 to 5000 rubles . The benefit lies in the possibility of reusable use.

Vitamin complexes

Purchasing the vitamins and minerals you need separately is not only expensive, but also difficult. A person will have to independently determine which substances are required, as well as in what quantities to use them.

Direct is a high-quality remedy that has a positive effect on the cardiovascular system and brain tissue. It contains B vitamins, as well as ginkgo biloba extract, potassium and hawthorn.

In addition, the composition contains magnesium. The product improves cholesterol metabolism and normalizes heart rhythm. You will need to use 1 tablet with meals throughout the day, and the course lasts a month.

Riboxin. The product eliminates tissue hypoxia and also normalizes metabolism in the myocardium. Produced in tablet form, the product qualitatively strengthens blood vessels and accelerates blood flow. Another advantage is that the drug improves energy balance and takes part in the production of glucose.

Vitrum Cardio. This complex is often prescribed after a stroke, as well as for the prevention of atherosclerotic changes. Sold in tablet form, you need to take three times a day. At the time of treatment, the prescribed dose should be doubled.

Duovit contains a rich list of vitamins and minerals. You need to take one tablet per day, and the course of treatment is no more than a month. The product generally strengthens the body and helps improve the function of the vascular system.

It is recommended that you consult your doctor before using any vitamins. This will avoid side effects and achieve the desired result. Most vitamin complexes can be used without problems together with medications.

Drug treatment can only be prescribed by a doctor of the appropriate profile after an examination. It is necessary to strictly follow its prescriptions, observe dosages, adhere to the time and rules of administration.

It is important to consider the compatibility of different groups of medications with each other and with food. Some drugs are well absorbed regardless of the presence or absence of food in the gastrointestinal tract, while the effectiveness of others may be reduced if taken on a full stomach.

For a number of diseases (diabetes mellitus, atherosclerosis, arterial hypertension), a diet is necessary during medication treatment. Revision and correction of the diet, rejection of harmful foods in favor of foods rich in vitamins in this case significantly increase the effectiveness of medications. Another factor influencing the results of therapy is the presence or absence of bad habits. Cigarettes and alcohol negatively affect vascular tone, disrupting it, so you must stop smoking and drinking alcohol.

To carry out such therapy, it is necessary to purchase a vitamin-mineral complex. It is best if it is prescribed by a doctor, based on a complete diagnosis.

Among the most popular are:

• herbal tea “Chestnut vitamins for blood vessels”;
• the drug "Panangin" (analogous to "Asparkam");
• complex "Miltgamma";
• drug "Magne-B6".

Mesotherapy (injections in the head for hair growth) – reviews

Olga 32 years old:

“After giving birth, my hair thinned dramatically. The doctor said it was all due to a hormonal surge. On his advice, I signed up for a course of mesotherapy - I was pleased with the effect. I can already see new strands growing.”

Anton 35 years old:

“I have suffered from dandruff all my life. I tried literally everything - shampoos, emulsions, took vitamins. Only a course of mesotherapy consisting of 4 procedures helped. At first, my head was a little itchy and painful, but the effect was worth all the money and effort spent.

Veronica 44 years old:

“I have hereditary allopathy. I was ashamed of this for a very long time, because I could not solve the problem on my own. A course of mesotherapy with allopathic drugs helped. The doctor has already prescribed me a meso-cocktail, I’ll buy a roller soon - I want to consolidate the result, but at home”
