GDS Hair Restore Program
Genilo Dermasolutions’ Signature Hair Restore Program uses evidence-based treatments proven to deliver visible results even just a few weeks after the first session. We use a system that delivers patented hair growth and anti-hair loss formula (made with a complex of botanicals, peptides, and growth factors) into hair follicles. The result? Hair loss is neutralised while hair growth is promoted.
What is Microneedling for Hair Loss?
Microneedling for hair loss is a minimally invasive procedure that involves pricking the scalp using a tool, such as a microneedling pen. This tool is equipped with fine, tiny needles to stimulate elastin and collagen production, thereby treating various skin conditions, including hair loss.
While this hair loss treatment may sound painful, it generally causes controlled superficial trauma to the scalp to stimulate blood flow, and at the same time, improves the absorption of topical hair loss treatments.
Microneedling for hair loss can also cause the scalp to release platelets and hair growth factors in the traumatised areas, which help thicken the existing hair follicles.
How Does Microneedling for Hair Loss Work?
During your hair loss treatment, we use a microneedling system for hair with needles up to 2 mm to deliver patented hair growth and anti-hair loss formula (made with a advanced complex of botanicals, peptides, and growth factors) into your hair follicles.
Before the procedure, you will undergo a consultation. The actual procedure time may vary based on the size of the treatment area and the number of steps involved. At GDS, you can expect the procedure to take around 90 minutes to complete inclusive of the pre-procedure analysis, anesthetic cream application, and post-procedure instructions.
We apply a multi-vitamin serum and LED Light Therapy to give your hair loss treatment a boost for greater results. We may also add acupuncture as the need arises depending on the severity and cause of hair loss.
Acupuncture increases blood flow in the scalp which allows for your hair follicle to get the nutrients it needs to stimulate hair growth.
Benefits of Microneedling and Acupuncture for Hair Loss
There are several benefits of microneedling and acupuncture for hair loss, especially if you have androgenetic alopecia – a genetic hair loss disorder caused by an excessive response to the hormones androgens.
This is because microneedling and acupuncture for hair loss work by causing minuscule injury to the dermis to stimulate the skin’s growth factor. The only physical changes that you may notice during or after the procedure is a little redness, which will go away over time.
These same growth factors may promote hair growth as the microneedling can help stimulate stem cells to grow which are helpful for hair growth. Studies have also shown that microneedling helps alongside oral or topical medications in treating hair loss, resulting in the growth of thicker, denser hair.
Why Choose our Hair Restore Treatment?
- Non-Invasive: Our Hair Restore Treatment is a non-invasive hair loss treatment that does not require incisions in contrast to surgical hair restoration procedures like hair transplants. For those looking to address hair loss, this makes it a less painful and safer option.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW?
It is always important to have a proper assessment for hair loss with our Dermatologist as there may be other factors that can cause hair loss such as low iron or thyroid abnormalities. Once the diagnosis of the cause of hair thinning is made options can be discussed with your Doctor. Once all of these avenues have been explored, our Hair Restore treatments can be a valuable next step. It is a safe and effective way to treat trickier forms of hair loss.
The cost of the treatment is an investment of both time and money because treatments are usually every four weeks and, on average, five treatments are required. After the series, maintenance is suggested to maintain and continue to promote hair growth and scalp health.
