Regenera technology is one of the latest modern technologies that have recently appeared in order to work on solving many hair problems, most notably hair loss, which a large percentage of women and men suffer from as well. It works by stimulating the production of hair follicles again, which makes it among the best and most important therapeutic systems that are used within Al Mousa Hospital. We will tell you more about the mechanism of this technology’s work, what its benefits are, who are the people who are candidates for its use, and other very important information. 

What is Regenera technology?

Regenera technology is a revolutionary treatment in eliminating hair loss by working on the use of natural regeneration mechanisms. It relies primarily on stem cell injections that stimulate hair growth, which increases its density in areas where hair is thin or falls out severely. It also works primarily on self-repair of hair.

The cells that are injected are originally taken from hair via plasma that contains platelets, which is among the modern treatment methods, which research has proven to be among the best treatment methods, especially in the following cases: 

• Work to stimulate the growth of new hair follicles. 
• Prevent hair loss.
• Used to enhance the hair regeneration process.
• Increase density.

How the Regenera hair technique works

The benefits of the Regenera hair technique are many and it is considered one of the most effective modern treatments in confronting the problem of hair loss without surgical intervention. This technique relies on using the body’s own cells to stimulate the hair follicles to renew and grow again. Below is a detailed explanation of the most important benefits of this technique:

• Regenera technology works to revitalize weak hair follicles by injecting stem cells and progenitor cells taken from the scalp itself. This helps revive follicles that were about to stop working, leading to the growth of new, stronger and thicker hair.
• It increases the thickness and quality of the hair, as the treatment not only increases the number of hairs, but also improves its structure, making it appear stronger and less susceptible to breakage or loss, and thus the hair becomes more vibrant and shiny.
• It is considered a safe treatment because it does not contain chemicals or foreign compounds, but rather relies on cells taken from the patient's own body, which reduces the possibility of any allergic reaction or unwanted side effects.
• It does not require a long recovery period, as the patient can return to his daily life immediately after the session, and it does not require any surgical intervention, suturing, or entering an operating room, which makes it suitable for people who prefer quick and effective solutions.
• The results of the Regenera technique appear gradually but are tangible, as the improvement in hair begins about three weeks after the session and the results continue to develop over several months. A clear difference in hair density and growth can be observed after three to six months.
• It is used as a preventive treatment and not just a therapeutic one. It is suitable for people who have begun to notice slight hair loss or weak hair density. It can be used to delay the progression of hereditary baldness and prevent the problem from getting worse in the future.
• It can be combined with other treatments such as plasma, vitamins or supplements to stimulate stronger hair growth and provide better results, especially in advanced cases of hair loss.
• It is a suitable option for those who have previously had a hair transplant and want to maintain the results or increase the density of the transplanted hair and stimulate the scalp to better receive the new follicles.
• It reduces the need to use long-term drug treatments such as minoxidil or finasteride, especially for those who do not prefer to continue using medications.
• The session itself takes no more than one hour, is almost painless and does not require complex preparation or extensive medical follow-up after the procedure.

Benefits of Regenera hair technology

One of the most important benefits of this technique is that it helps strengthen hair follicles and stimulate hair growth again. It also contributes to increasing hair density and improving its overall appearance. It is considered a non-surgical and safe procedure, as it does not require surgery or a long recovery period. Results usually appear about 3 weeks after the session with a gradual improvement in hair density. One session is often sufficient, but in some cases additional sessions may be recommended depending on the person’s condition.

In addition, the Regenera technique is used in cases of hair loss resulting from stress or hormonal changes, and it can be used as a preventive measure to improve hair and its density even in the absence of an apparent hair loss problem. This technique is considered suitable for men and women as well.

Who are the candidates for using Regenera technology?

Candidates for using the Regenera hair technique are a specific group of people who suffer from hair loss problems, but with specific medical conditions to ensure the effectiveness and safety of the treatment. Below we mention the most important groups for whom this type of treatment is recommended:

• People who suffer from hereditary hair loss, whether men or women, as this technique is useful in the early and middle stages of hereditary baldness, as it stimulates the follicles before they completely stop producing hair.
• Individuals who have gradually thinning hair or weak hair density and do not have complete hair loss or complete baldness, because this technique relies on activating existing hair follicles and not implanting new follicles.
• Patients who do not want to undergo hair transplantation or cannot undergo surgery due to health or personal circumstances, Regenera is an effective non-surgical alternative in these cases.
• Women who suffer from hair loss resulting from hormonal changes, such as after childbirth or during menopause, as the technique helps stimulate weak hair follicles without affecting the hormonal balance.
• People who suffer from hair loss resulting from psychological stress or wrong daily habits such as excessive use of dyes or thermal styling tools, as long as the hair follicles are still present and can be activated.
• This technique can be used as a preventive measure in some cases that have not yet reached the stage of severe hair loss but show signs of weakness or slow hair growth in order to maintain its density and quality.
• Patients who have previously undergone a hair transplant and want to increase the results or keep the transplanted hair from falling out in the future.

Methods of injecting Regenera hair technology

The process of injecting Regenera hair technology takes place through precise steps aimed at using the body's own cells to activate hair follicles and stimulate hair growth again. These steps are as follows:

• A small sample is taken from the scalp, specifically from the area behind the ear, where the hair density is good. This sample is often no more than one centimeter in size. This is done using a precise instrument under local anesthesia to avoid feeling pain.
• This sample is placed in a specialized medical device called the “Regenera System,” where stem cells, progenitor cells, and biological materials that help stimulate weak hair follicles are separated. This is done automatically inside the device without the need for any manual intervention to ensure sterilization and accuracy.
• After preparing the cells, they are placed in a precise syringe and then injected directly into the areas affected by hair loss or thinning. The injections are done superficially using very fine needles to ensure that the materials are distributed evenly in the scalp. This step is carried out under the supervision of a specialist doctor to ensure that the materials reach the targeted follicles.
• The session does not require more than 30 to 45 minutes, and the patient can return to his daily life immediately after the session because it does not require any surgical intervention or recovery period.
• Improvement begins to appear gradually after about 3 weeks, and the results continue to improve over the course of 6 months. An increase in hair density and the strength of the hair itself is noted. In most cases, one session is sufficient, but in some cases it may be recommended to repeat the session after a year to maintain the results.

Frequently asked questions 

Does hair fall out after Regenera?

After performing the Regenera technique, the hair may go through a period of temporary loss due to the stimulation of the hair follicles to grow again. This loss usually occurs in the first weeks after the treatment, and it is a natural part of the process, as old hairs fall out to make room for the growth of new, thicker hair. Improvement quickly appears over time and the results continue to improve gradually.

Is Regenera an alternative to hair transplantation?

Regenera technology is not a complete alternative to hair transplantation, but it is an effective non-surgical option in treating hair loss and stimulating hair growth again. Regenera can be suitable for the early and medium stages of hair loss, while hair transplantation is the most appropriate solution in cases of complete baldness or when other treatments fail, and the two techniques can be combined to obtain better and faster results.

How many Regenera sessions does a person need?

It should be noted that the number of sessions that a person needs for treatment with the Regenera technique varies according to the case, but in most cases the patient needs one or two sessions and is repeated when necessary after three or five years. However, in advanced cases, a session is performed every year depending on the damage and loss that the scalp suffers from. 

Regenera technology is one of the important cosmetic therapeutic techniques that is used to increase hair growth, in addition to protecting against hair loss and filling the gaps in the scalp. We at Al Mousa Hospital possess the best and most important modern devices and techniques that help in obtaining the best results.
