Hair Threads

Book Consultation

Hair Threads (scalp PDO thread embedding) involves placing ultra-fine, absorbable polydioxanone (PDO) monofilament threads into targeted thinning areas of the scalp. The threads act as a scaffold that triggers a local healing cascade increasing collagen, activating fibroblasts and improving blood supply which can strengthen hair follicles and encourage thicker hair over time. Hair Threads are typically offered as a stand-alone therapy or combined with regenerative modalities (PRP / Exosomes / Mesotherapy) for enhanced results. Small clinical studies and case series report measurable improvements in hair density and thickness after thread embedding therapy.


Benefits

  • Supports hair follicle strength and scalp health
  • May increase hair density and thickness over time
  • Improves scalp microcirculation and stimulates collagen formation
  • Minimally invasive with same-day return to normal activity
  • Works well combined with PRP/Exosomes or Mesotherapy for faster results
  • Suitable for men and women with early to moderate thinning

Ideal for

  • Early to moderate androgenetic thinning
  • Widening parting lines or reduced crown volume
  • Patients seeking non-surgical improvement in density (not suitable for complete bald patches)

What to expect

  • Procedure time: 30–60 minutes (depending on area & number of threads)
  • Anaesthesia: Topical numbing; local anaesthetic may be used for comfort
  • Pain: Mild to moderate - most clients report tolerable discomfort rather than sharp pain
  • Downtime: Minimal - routine activities same day; avoid strenuous exercise and wetting the area intensively for 24–48 hours
  • Visible change: Many patients show measurable improvement by 8 – 12 weeks as collagen remodelling occurs; continued improvement may be seen over several months.
  • Longevity: Results reported out to ~9–12 months in many clinic series; maintenance sessions may be recommended depending on hair loss progression and individual response.

FAQs

  • Hair Threads are ultra-fine, absorbable PDO threads inserted into the
  • superficial layers of the scalp to stimulate local tissue remodelling, improve
  • blood flow and support hair follicle function.
  • PDO (polydioxanone) is a well-established, absorbable suture material used in
  • many medical procedures. The technique of thread embedding for hair has
  • been used widely in clinics with generally good safety profiles when performed
  • by qualified dermatologists. (We will confirm the exact thread brand we use and
  • regulatory status in our product sheet.)
  • We use topical anaesthetic (and local anaesthetic where needed). Most clients
  • describe only mild discomfort during placement.
  • Most patients notice visible improvement between 8–12 weeks as the tissue
  • remodels; continued improvement may be evident for several months.
  • Often a single session can help mild thinning. Your dermatologist may
  • recommend a follow-up session or combine treatments (e.g., PRP/Exosomes)
  • depending on your condition.
  • Minimal. You may resume normal activities the same day but avoid heavy
  • workouts, saunas or aggressive scalp treatments for 24–48 hours.
  • Many patients maintain benefit for ~9–12 months; we recommend a
  • maintenance plan tailored to your hair loss pattern.
  • Not suitable for those with active scalp infection, uncontrolled chronic disease,
  • certain blood disorders, or some autoimmune conditions. A medical
  • consultation and scalp assessment are required before treatment.
