​Clinical application techniques​​

Exposing the scalp…

  • Use a comb to divide your hair and form a ‘parting’. It will then be easier to target and apply the lotion / spray directly to your scalp.

​Dosage…

  • Apply the correct dosage. Check with your product manufacturer’s or trichologist’s recommended dosage. Typically, you can apply less product if you are treating a smaller area – such as the crown – than if you are treating the whole of your crown or your entire scalp.

​Application…

  • Apply your lotion or spray directly to the area where your hair is thinning

  • If using a dropper hold directly next to the scalp. If using a spray, trigger from 2-3” from the surface of your scalp to stay right on target and avoid coating the hair with your product. 

Distribution…

  • Use your finger tips to rub the lotion along the parting into your scalp

  • Lotion will usually be absorbed into your scalp within a few minutes

​Repetition…

  • Create a new ‘parting’ approximately an inch from that you’ve just treated and repeat

  • Use of a ‘tail comb’ may help with creating partings especially if you have longer, wavy or curly hair

​After application…

  • After allowing your product up to five minutes to absorb you may style if you wish

  • If your product contains a vasodilator keep in mind that this can cause a temporary pinkish/reddening of your skin wherever applied; scalp, hair line etc. This is normal and disappears soon afterwards. If this is a problem for you consider evening treatments prior to retiring for the day.

  • Do not re-wash your hair for 3 - 4 hours following a treatment application

Application frequency…

  • Unless otherwise advised by your trichologist or doctor, hair loss must be treated every day

  • Frequent, consistent and constant use of your product is vital

  • Most importantly: try never to miss a single treatment 

​Application timing…

  • Using your product at the same time every day will help in two ways
    • It will help embed the practice as a routine
    • It will ensure the same time between treatments
  • Create a routine: frequent, consistent & constant application is vital to success
