About this treatment
Regenerative scalp treatment for hair growth
Polynucleotides can be used on the scalp to support scalp health and promote longer-term hair growth. They work by improving the scalp environment and supporting regeneration, with results building gradually over time. Your treatment plan is tailored to the area being treated, spacing between sessions and the outcomes we're aiming to achieve.
