Botox® Hair Replacement Treatments

About Botox® Hair Replacement Treatments/Vitamin Hair Replacement Treatments
It is important to understand that baldness is not a medical disorder. It is a condition by which the hair follicles under the scalp shrink to the point where they can no longer generate replacement follicles. Since each follicle typically regenerates every 2-6 years, baldness is a slow but continual physiological process that results in patches of baldness on the scalp connecting with other patches to form a hairline.

Botox® Hair Replacement Treatments/Vitamin Hair Replacement Treatments are Botox® injections coupled with injections of vitamins (cocktail mixture) generally known to stimulate hair growth, and appear to improve the tissue environment surrounding the hair follicles by reducing scalp tension and improving blood flow.
Alternatives to Botox® Hair Replacement Treatments/Vitamin Hair Replacement Treatments could be either Minoxidil (Rogaine) or Finasteride (Propecia). There are surgical options for treating baldness such as Hair Transplantation. Surgical options are significantly more expensive than Botox® injections or prescription medications. For this reason, more and more patients are looking into Botox® Hair Replacement Treatments/Vitamin Hair Replacement Treatments as a viable option for them.
