Hair thinning is a common concern affecting both men and women, though the causes and patterns often differ. In men, it is frequently linked to genetics and hormonal changes, resulting in receding hairlines or thinning at the crown. Women may experience diffuse thinning across the scalp, often triggered by hormonal fluctuations, stress, or nutritional deficiencies. Regardless of gender, thinning hair can impact self-esteem and confidence. Fortunately, a variety of treatments — including medical therapies, topical solutions, supplements, and advanced clinic procedures — can help strengthen hair, promote regrowth, and improve overall hair health.
At Skin Focus MD, we use different technologies including HairRestart, Microneedling and or Plexr Shower together with natural growth factors or exosomes to promote hair growth.
What are Exosomes?
When cells communicate, they release exosomes to “speak” to each other. An exosome itself is nothing more than an envelope with information (signaling factors) that are specific instructions to tell our cells what to do. In the case of DERIVE, we target hair.
How do they work?
Think of this product like a steroid for your cells; it’s going to amplify the healing of your cells and reduce treatment downtime. It tells our cells to upregulate the production of elastin by 891%, collagen by 165%, HA by 198% and decrease inflammation by 61%. In the case of DERIVE, it will rapidly thicken the current follicles and increase the number of follicles on the head, thus creating a thicker and fuller looking head of hair. It does this by upregulating angiogenesis, vasodilation (more blood flow, oxygen, nutrients), stimulates cytokeratin15, hydrates scalp, and autophagy.
How is DERIVE different from other exosomes?
It is the only product in the Canadian marketplace that is 100% plant/fungi based, organic, vegan, non-synthetic, absorbed into intact skin, and heat stable. Plus, this treatment includes a 30-day Take Home Serum for continued treatment at home.
