Botox or Xeomin to the scalp helps with one main type of hair loss called: Androgenetic Alopecia. This type of hair loss is genetically derived and happens in both males and females. You will notice that with this hair loss, most patients have thinning in the temporal region. The Nueromodulator (Botox or Xeomin) has been proven to help with relaxing the scalp muscle to enhance blood flow and circulation allowing the hairs to grow more effectively. Most patients only need to repeat this treatment every 6 months. We also recommend doing PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) intermittently with your Botox/ Xeomin treatment for optimal results.
Other Benefits of Botox and Xeomin to the Scalp
There are several potential benefits of using Botox or Xeomin for scalp issues. These include:
- Alleviating tension headaches and migraines: By relaxing the muscles in the scalp, Botox and Xeomin can help reduce tension and pressure, which can help alleviate tension headaches and migraines.
- Reducing excessive sweating: Botox and Xeomin can also help reduce the production of sweat in the scalp, which can be beneficial for those who experience excessive sweating in this area.
- Improving scalp health: By reducing tension and pressure in the scalp, Botox and Xeomin can also help improve overall scalp health.
How is the treatment performed?
Botox and Xeomin treatments for scalp issues are typically performed in a medical office setting. The procedure is relatively quick and minimally invasive. A topical anesthetic may be applied to the area to help minimize discomfort. The neuromodulator is then injected into the scalp using a very fine needle. Patients can typically return to their regular activities immediately following the procedure.
