Santa Monica MedSpa

At Santa Monica MedSpa, we offer a cutting-edge Hair Restoration treatment designed to help you achieve fuller, thicker, and healthier hair. Using advanced technology and techniques, our non-surgical procedure targets areas of thinning or hair loss, providing a natural and long-lasting solution. Whether you are experiencing male or female pattern baldness, receding hairlines, or thinning hair, our treatment is tailored to meet your specific needs.

Our Hair Restoration procedure works by transplanting healthy hair follicles from a donor area (typically the back or sides of your scalp) to areas experiencing thinning or hair loss. This safe and effective method promotes natural hair regrowth and enhances the overall density of your hair, without the need for invasive surgery.

This treatment is ideal for individuals looking to restore their hairline, improve scalp coverage, and regain their confidence, all with minimal downtime and no scarring. Experience the transformation with natural-looking results that can last a lifetime!

Benefits

Hair restoration offers a non-invasive solution for hair loss, eliminating the need for surgical cuts or stitches. The procedure involves minimal discomfort and little to no downtime.

By transplanting your own hair follicles, this treatment creates a seamless and natural-looking hairline. The results blend with your existing hair, providing a fuller, thicker appearance that looks completely authentic.

Once the transplanted hair follicles begin to grow, they will continue to produce healthy hair for a lifetime. Hair restoration provides long-term results, unlike temporary hair loss solutions such as wigs or topical treatments.

The procedure is designed to leave no noticeable scars, thanks to advanced techniques such as FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction). This means you can enjoy restored hair without worrying about visible scarring.

With a quick recovery time, you can resume most daily activities within a few days of treatment. While some redness and swelling may occur initially, it will subside quickly, and you’ll be able to get back to your normal routine without significant interruptions.

AREAS OF TREATMENT

Restore a natural and youthful hairline by addressing receding hairlines or thinning areas at the front of the scalp. This is one of the most common areas treated to improve hair density and appearance.

Many individuals experience hair thinning at the crown of the head. Our hair restoration treatment can help restore fullness and coverage to this area, providing a balanced, thick look throughout your entire scalp.

For those with overall thinning across the top of the scalp, this treatment can add density, helping to create a fuller and more voluminous appearance in the crown, vertex, and top areas.

Some clients may experience thinning around the temples and sides of their hairline. The restoration treatment can target these areas, improving symmetry and density for a natural, well-proportioned hairline.

PRE-TREATMENT GUIDELINES

To ensure optimal results, avoid direct sun exposure for at least two weeks before your hair restoration procedure. Sunburned or tanned skin can be more sensitive and may affect the treatment’s success. Use a sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher if you need to be outside.

Avoid using harsh hair products (such as those containing alcohol, strong chemicals, or fragrances) 3–5 days before your treatment. These can irritate your scalp and make the procedure more uncomfortable. Stick to mild, fragrance-free shampoos and conditioners.

If you are taking medications that thin your blood (like aspirin, ibuprofen, or certain supplements like fish oil or Vitamin E), it's recommended to stop using them 5–7 days prior to your procedure. Always consult your doctor before discontinuing any medication.

On the day of your procedure, make sure your scalp is clean and free from oils, lotions, or styling products. Your provider may ask you to wash your hair the night before or the morning of the procedure to ensure a fresh start.

Refrain from consuming alcohol at least 48 hours before the treatment. Alcohol can increase the risk of bleeding during the procedure and affect your recovery process.

BEFORE & AFTER

AFTER TREATMENT CARE

After your hair restoration treatment, avoid touching, rubbing, or scratching the treated scalp. This will help prevent infection and ensure that the newly transplanted hair follicles settle properly.

For the first few days after the procedure, avoid washing your hair or getting the scalp wet. Once your provider gives the go-ahead, gently wash your hair with a mild, sulfate-free shampoo. Be careful not to apply excessive pressure when washing or drying your hair.

  • Protect your scalp from direct sunlight for at least two weeks following the procedure. If you need to be outside, wear a loose hat or use a sunscreen recommended by your provider to prevent irritation or damage to the treated area.
  • Refrain from engaging in vigorous physical activity or exercise for at least 7–10 days after the treatment to avoid sweating or putting unnecessary pressure on the scalp. This will help prevent complications and promote healing.
  • Avoid using any hair styling products, such as gels, sprays, or mousse, for at least a week following the treatment. Harsh chemicals can irritate the scalp and affect the healing process.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Hair restoration is a non-surgical procedure that involves transplanting healthy hair follicles from a donor area (typically the back or sides of the scalp) to areas of the scalp experiencing thinning or hair loss. This treatment helps promote natural hair regrowth and restore a fuller, thicker hairline.

The duration of the procedure depends on the extent of hair loss and the number of grafts needed. Typically, hair restoration treatments can last between 4 to 8 hours, depending on the complexity of the case.

Most patients report minimal discomfort during the procedure, as local anesthesia is applied to numb the treatment area. You may feel slight pressure or sensation during the procedure, but it should not be painful. After the procedure, some mild discomfort or tenderness may occur, which can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relief.

It’s common to see initial hair growth within 3 to 6 months following the procedure, though full results may take up to 12 months to fully develop. This is because hair grows in cycles, and it may take time for the transplanted hair to settle and regrow.

Hair restoration is effective for most types of hair loss, including male and female pattern baldness, thinning hair, and receding hairlines. However, it may be less effective for individuals with advanced hair loss or those with insufficient donor hair. A consultation with your provider will help determine if you're a good candidate for the procedure.
