Women of today prioritize hair and scalp safety more and more, but they want quick application that lasts, so they choose chemical treatments that give them manageable, straight, and shiny hair. Among the many hair treatments that promise one-time fixes for manageable locks are keratin, botox, and cysteine; nevertheless, these treatments often cause hair loss, thinning hair, or allergies on the scalp. Is it merely a marketing ploy or is it a true game-changer and miracle therapy that merits the hype?
In conversation with HT Lifestyle, Dr Trishna Gupte, Clinical Cosmetologist, Trichologist, Founder and Owner at The Cosmo-Square Clinic, ISCA, stated, “Patients are often recommended to consider Hair Botox treatment in salons for issues such as hair fall, breakage and dry, frizzy hair. Hair Botox treatment can indeed add volume and smooth out hair texture. However, it is important to be aware of the associated costs, as this treatment involves chemical processes that may lead to long-term side effects.”
“Opting for clinical treatments like PRP hair and mesotherapy, under the guidance of a doctor, is a preferable approach when addressing hair thinning. Hair issues can stem from factors like poor nutrition or hormonal imbalances. A healthcare professional can conduct a thorough examination of the scalp and hair condition, order blood work if necessary, and prescribe medications to address deficiencies and hormonal imbalances.”
Dr Trishna Gupte concluded, “Clinical and safe treatments like PRP hair, which involves growth factors, and mesotherapy for hair can be recommended by a doctor to improve thinning. These treatments, when combined with mild laser therapy, are both safe and effective in stimulating and strengthening the hair.”
