It’s not just a treatment: it’s an investment in your confidence.
Benefits of Hair Loss Treatments
Every hair loss treatment helps create an environment where your hair can thrive.
- Encouraging new hair growth by reactivating dormant follicles.
- Improving thickness and density, giving hair a fuller, healthier appearance.
- Restoring scalp health, reducing inflammation and improving circulation.
- Safe for African hair textures, including patients experiencing traction alopecia.
- Suitable for both men and women, whether dealing with early hair thinning or more advanced hair loss.
TricoPAT is versatile enough to address multiple concerns at once, making it a powerful treatment option for anyone wanting to restore their hair naturally.
How TricoPAT Treatment Works
The TricoPAT hair loss treatment works on two levels: mechanical stimulation from microneedling and vibration, and biological stimulation from serums or PRP.
Stimulate circulation
Improved blood flow means hair follicles are constantly nourished with the vital elements they need to grow stronger, thicker strands. This revitalises weak or dormant follicles, giving them a better chance to re-enter the active growth phase.
Trigger healing
The controlled micro-injuries signal the body to repair itself, producing fresh collagen around the follicles. This not only supports the structure of the scalp but also wakes up sluggish follicles, encouraging new growth.
Enhance absorption
Normally, topical serums struggle to get past the outer layers of the scalp. Microneedling creates tiny channels that allow active ingredients or PRP to be absorbed far more effectively, where they can directly influence follicle health.
Strengthen scalp
By building up scalp thickness and health, TricoPAT makes the foundation for your hair more robust. A stronger scalp helps protect against issues like excessive shedding, thinning, and future damage.
This dual action means TricoPAT doesn’t just improve the look of your hair.
It improves the underlying environment needed for long-term growth.
What to Expect
Your hair restoration journey is unique, but here’s what many patients experience:
After the first session
The scalp feels refreshed, circulation is boosted, and shedding may begin to slow.
After 3–4 sessions
Improved scalp condition is noticeable. Less dryness, itchiness, or inflammation. Many patients start to notice new baby hairs at this stage.
After 6–8 sessions
Hair appears fuller and denser, and areas of thinning are less obvious. Traction alopecia often begins to show visible recovery.
Long-term maintenance
With regular treatments, patients enjoy sustained regrowth, healthier scalp condition, and reduced shedding.
Mild redness or sensitivity is normal immediately after treatment, but this typically resolves within 24 hours.
