Common aesthetic issues with hair include:
- Thinning of hair & breakage of existing hair – often a result of both internal & external factors such as hormonal changes, dietary issues and environmental/chemical damage.
- Increased loss of hair – often a result of dietary issues, adverse changes in overall health & wellbeing and general aging processes.
- Alopecia – various forms of alopecia exist. Androgenic alopecia (male pattern hair loss) and Alopecia Areata (considered to be an auto-immune disease) can be improved by hair loss treatments.
- Long term baldness – hair has been lost and new hair has not regrown for several years.
- loss of hair along the hair line or in ‘partings’ from excess, long term traction on the hair.
There are three hair loss treatments available at Rejuven8 Cosmetix:
- Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) – a treatment involving the reinjection of a component of your own blood – Plasma – to stimulate the reactivation of hair follicles and slow down the ‘shedding’ of hair. Extremely effective in young, healthy patients but results can be negatively impacted by increasing age, issues with health, the use of medications and other social factors such as smoking and alcohol intake.
- Exosomes – tiny messengers derived from stem cells injected into the scalp to rejuvenate your hair follicles, promote healthy growth, and restore the natural shine and vitality to your locks. An injectable product clinically produced and containing 10 billion Exosomes and specific amounts of growth factors, amino acids and peptides which makes it very predictable.
- LED Red light (633nm) Therapy – Red LED light therapy has been scientifically proven to promote hair growth and scalp health, improving both hair strand density and thickness.
Your Cosmetic Practitioner will assess your concerns and develop a treatment plan but an initial course of 2 weekly treatments and 4 treatment sessions is recommended followed by maintenance treatments every 6 months to prolong the results.
All hair loss treatments are clinically proven to stimulate ‘dormant’ hair follicles and encourage follicles to move into an active hair growth phase. Hair follicles have 4 distinct phases:
- Anagen – growth or active phase where hair follicles are creating new hairs and nurturing the existing hair.
- Catagen – regressing phase tends to last about 10 days or so where hair follicles shrink and hair growth slows. The hair also separates from the bottom of the hair follicle, yet remains in place during its final days of growing.
- Telogen – resting phase typically lasts around 3 months. An estimated 10 to 15 percent of your scalp hairs are in this phase where hairs don’t grow, but they don’t usually fall out either.
- Exogen – shedding phase is essentially an extension or a part of the telogen stage of hair growth. During the Exogen phase, hair is shed from the scalp, often helped along by washing and brushing.
Treatments also aim to improve scalp health and reduce inflammation which can contribute to increased hair loss and hair thinning.
There are multiple benefits from hair loss treatments. These treatments are clinically proven, safe procedures that result in:
- Improved scalp health with reduced inflammation that can lead to less hair shedding and hair breakage
- Stimulation of dormant hair follicles – moving the hair growth phase into the Anagen or active growth phase
- Increased vitality and thickness of existing hairs from additional peptides, amino acids and proteins
- Reduced shedding of hair by shortening the Telogen/Exogen phase of the hair follicle
Relatively non-invasive, safe procedures that can provide long lasting results with minimal discomfort and downtime. These treatments can safely be combined with existing topical hair loss preparations and oral medications. They also form an essential part of the post treatment care for hair transplant procedures to increase the viability and longevity.

What is a Hair Loss Treatment?
Hair loss treatments can include many differing approaches:
- Over-the-counter medications you apply to your scalp are usually the first course of treatment for thinning hair. A prescription oral medication is approved only for men with male pattern baldness.
- Hair Transplantation – during a hair transplant, your provider carefully removes strands of hair from an area of your scalp where the hair is thickest. The provider then transplants those strands, embedding them into your scalp where your hair is thinnest.
Rejuven8 Cosmetix researched for the most effective and ‘current’ treatment options to treat hair loss and hair thinning.
- Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) has been an effective treatment for many years but the results from PRP treatments are adversely impacted by the quality of the source of the PRP – ‘You’. So, increasing age, poor health, illness affecting blood platelets, medications, smoking and alcohol intake can lead to ‘poor’ quality or reduced platelet counts.
- In 2024, the newest treatment for Hair Loss involves the injection of Exosomes. This laboratory stabilised injectable product contains 10 billion Exosomes and a precise level of growth factors, amino acids and peptides.
- Red (633nm) LED Light Therapy – clinically proven to reduce inflammation and improve scalp health to encourage new hair formation and hair growth.
Why do people need a Hair Loss Treatment?
It’s typical to lose some hair every day as part of your hair’s usual growth cycle. For most people, the lost hair grows back, and you maintain a full head of hair. But illness, hormonal changes, stress, aging and inherited conditions can interfere with your hair’s growth cycle. More hair falls out, but new strands don’t always grow back. That’s where Hair Loss Treatments step in to improve scalp health and kick start the growth phase of hair.
How long do the results of Hair Loss Treatments last?
The beneficial effects of Hair Loss treatments for hair regrowth may vary for each person. There have been several clinical trials performed over the past 10 years confirming a reduction in hair shedding and an increase in hair regrowth resulting from Platelet Rich Plasma treatments and Red LED Light Therapy. Exosomes is a revolutionary and relatively new treatment in the area of hair loss treatments but clinical trials to date are showing very positive results from these treatments with a more ‘consistent’ improvement in hair density and regrowth apparently removing the limitations seen from PRP treatments.
Injectable treatments are recommended at 2-4 weekly intervals for a series of 4 initial treatments with 6 monthly maintenance treatments recommended to maintain those results.
Red LED Light Therapy is advised 2-3 times per week as a ‘stand alone’ treatment for 4-6 weeks with weekly maintenance treatments.
Are Hair Loss Treatments safe?
Yes, Hair Loss Treatments are generally considered safe when performed by a professional. The procedure can result in redness, swelling and bruising but these post treatment effects settle over a few days.
Are Hair Loss Treatments painful?
Red LED Light Therapy is completely pain free. Most people report only mild discomfort during injectable Hair Loss procedures. Depending on your own pain threshold, the pain level may vary. Local Anaesthetic creams can be applied to sensitive areas to minimise any discomfort but it is important to note that there may be some burning ‘prickling’ sensation after the treatment that can last for a few minutes.
Are there any adverse effects?
Side effects from Hair Loss Treatments are usually minor. Some common side effects include redness, swelling at the treatment site, bruising that can vary in severity aa well as a burning ‘prickling’ sensation that can be uncomfortable.
What is the cost?
The cost of treatment varies depending on the area to be treated and the number of treatments required. During your consultation, one of our cosmetic professionals will determine the cost for you. Before your treatment begins, you will always be asked to approve the cost.
