Product pairing strategies

At MedHair, our hair loss products are designed to work in synergy for optimal scalp health and follicle support. Our Red Light Massage Comb uses low-level red light therapy to stimulate blood circulation and activate hair follicles at a cellular level, helping to support stronger growth activity over time. Our Regenerating Shampoo works by gently cleansing the scalp while delivering active ingredients such as caffeine and peptides that help strengthen hair roots and improve overall scalp condition. When used together, you help to create a cleaner, more responsive scalp environment to support hair growth. To shop these products and more, please visit our website.

FAQ – How much time do I need off work after a transplant?

We recommend patients take 3 to 7 days leave following a hair transplant. In the first few days, mild redness, swelling and small scabs may develop in both the donor and recipient areas as part of the normal healing process. Patients with non-physical or remote work may return sooner, while those in customer-facing or physically demanding roles may require more time. At Medhair, your doctor will provide personalised aftercare instructions and prescribed medication to promote proper healing. This ensures a safe return to work without compromising graft survival or recovery outcomes 🌿 If you would like to book a consultation or learn more about our approach, please visit our website.

Let’s talk Traction Alopecia

Traction alopecia is a form of hair loss caused by ongoing tension on the hair follicles, often linked to tight hairstyles such as braids, weaves or ponytails. Over time, this strain can lead to thinning or permanent loss;  most commonly along the hairline or temples. At MedHair, treatment is tailored to your individual case and may be non-surgical or surgical. In more advanced stages, healthy donor follicles can be precisely transplanted to restore natural density and refine the hairline. Every case is carefully assessed to ensure the most appropriate, medically guided approach 💇🏾‍♀️ To book a consultation or learn more, visit our website here.

What to expect from your consultation

Your consultation at MedHair is a structured, medically guided assessment designed to uncover the cause and pattern of your hair loss. Our doctors then create a personalised treatment plan tailored to your medical history, genetics and lifestyle. This may include lifestyle adjustments, medication, non-surgical treatments, a surgical hair transplant – or a considered combination. What sets MedHair apart is that every consultation is led by an experienced surgeon, ensuring expert insight from the outset. To book a consultation with our team, please visit our website here.
