Understanding Hair Loss

Hair loss can happen to anyone—and often, it starts gradually. Whether you’re noticing more hair in your brush, a widening part, or a thinning crown, understanding what’s happening beneath the surface is the first step toward effective treatment.

For many, genetics play the biggest role—conditions like androgenetic alopecia (male or female pattern baldness) are inherited and progress over time. But other factors can also contribute, including hormonal changes, stress, poor nutrition, medications, and aging. In women, postpartum hormonal shifts or menopause often trigger noticeable shedding.

While some hair loss is normal—about 50 to 100 strands per day—persistent thinning or patchy areas usually signal that the follicles need support. At Modern Image Aesthetics, we focus on early intervention and regenerative therapies that help restore scalp health and awaken dormant follicles before the loss becomes advanced.

Non-Surgical Hair Restoration Options

Modern Image Aesthetics & Wellness specializes in non-invasive, science-backed treatments that stimulate natural hair growth without surgery or long recovery times. Our most popular options include:

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy

This treatment uses the healing components in your own blood to rejuvenate hair follicles. After drawing a small sample, your blood is spun in a centrifuge to isolate the plasma rich in growth factors. When injected into targeted areas of the scalp, PRP promotes follicle regeneration, thickens existing strands, and encourages new growth. Results develop gradually over several months, creating a fuller, more natural appearance.

Exosome Therapy

Exosomes are powerful, cell-derived messengers that stimulate repair and regeneration at the cellular level. When applied to the scalp, they deliver signaling molecules that promote follicle activity and enhance hair density. Exosome therapy is ideal for patients seeking advanced, next-generation hair restoration backed by regenerative medicine.

Microneedling with Growth Serums

Microneedling creates tiny microchannels in the scalp that stimulate collagen production and enhance the absorption of nutrient-rich serums or PRP. This combination therapy increases blood flow, nourishes hair follicles, and supports stronger, healthier growth.

Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT)

Using gentle, red-light technology, LLLT energizes hair follicles, improves circulation, and reduces inflammation. This comfortable, non-invasive option can be performed in-office or as part of an at-home maintenance routine.

Each of these treatments is safe, minimally invasive, and designed to help patients achieve noticeable, natural results—without the downtime or expense of surgical transplants.

Who Are the Best Candidates?

Hair restoration treatments are effective for both men and women experiencing early to moderate thinning or hairline recession. Ideal candidates typically:

  • Notice gradual thinning, increased shedding, or receding areas.
  • Have active but weakened hair follicles that can still respond to stimulation.
  • Prefer non-surgical solutions with minimal discomfort and recovery.
  • Are in good general health and maintain realistic expectations.

These treatments are especially beneficial for those who want to preserve and strengthen existing hair rather than replace it. During your consultation at Modern Image Aesthetics & Wellness, our specialists will evaluate your scalp health, discuss your concerns, and customize a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs and hair goals.

What to Expect During Treatment

At Modern Image Aesthetics & Wellness, every hair restoration journey begins with a personalized consultation. During this visit, your provider will examine your scalp, review your medical history, and identify the best treatment options for your specific type of hair loss.

Most non-surgical procedures, such as PRP injections or microneedling with growth serums, are performed in-office and take about 45–60 minutes. Here’s a brief overview of what to expect:

  • Preparation: Your scalp will be cleansed, and a numbing solution may be applied to ensure comfort.
  • Treatment: Depending on your chosen method, PRP or growth factors are injected or applied to the scalp while microneedling stimulates follicle activity.
  • Post-Treatment: There’s minimal downtime—you can usually return to normal activities the same day, though you should avoid washing your hair for about 24 hours.

Most patients begin to see visible improvements in three to six months, with thicker, stronger hair growth continuing over time. Multiple sessions are typically recommended for the best results, followed by maintenance treatments a few times per year.

Combining Treatments for Optimal Results

For the most transformative outcomes, many patients benefit from a customized combination approach. At Modern Image, our specialists often pair complementary treatments to maximize hair follicle stimulation and scalp health.

  • PRP + Microneedling: Enhances the penetration and effectiveness of growth factors for deeper follicle repair.
  • PRP + Exosome Therapy: Combines the body’s natural regenerative plasma with advanced cellular messengers for stronger, faster results.
  • Laser Therapy + Regenerative Treatments: Helps improve scalp circulation and follicle response between sessions.

Our team also focuses on holistic scalp wellness, recommending at-home care strategies such as nourishing serums, nutritional support, stress management, and healthy sleep routines. Together, these elements create the ideal environment for long-term hair vitality.

Confidence Restored: The Emotional Benefits

Hair restoration is about more than regrowth—it’s about renewing self-confidence and emotional well-being. Thicker, healthier hair often helps patients feel more vibrant, youthful, and self-assured in both personal and professional settings.

Many of our clients share that after treatment, they feel like themselves again—more comfortable in photos, more confident in social situations, and more at peace with their appearance. At Modern Image Aesthetics & Wellness, we take pride in offering not just aesthetic results, but a renewed sense of confidence that radiates from the inside out.
