Acell Treatment for Hair

ACell therapy is used to treat hair loss in men and women.

ACell is a naturally occurring, non-crosslinked, and completely resorbable acellular material that works at the cellular level to repair damaged tissues. It is used extensively in surgical procedures and aesthetic dermatological procedures. ACell can be injected alone or combined with PRP to regenerate hair and maximise hair thickness and density.

ACell’s MatriStem technology differs from other scaffolding technologies. It promotes healing by triggering abundant new blood cell formation and summoning numerous types of cells (including progenitor cells) to the injury site.

TREATMENT

How Does Acell Treatment Work?

Acell is usually combined with PRP. The ACell matrix is a natural biological material that accelerates the body’s healing process by activating the body’s stem cells. Once activated, the stem cells form new tissues at the target site.
When used for hair regeneration, the ACell matrix stimulates or activates stem cells in hair follicles. These cells repair damaged tissues, strengthen hair follicles, and stimulate growth centres to assist in their regeneration.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

ACell therapy with PRP is an innovative and latest scientific procedure for treating temporary and hereditary hair loss in men and women.

ACell therapy is a completely safe procedure and does not cause any serious side effects. However, you may experience temporary mild swelling, redness or tenderness in the treated areas. These effects resolve by themselves in a few hours.

It may take a few months (approx 4 to 6 months) for visible hair growth after an ACell therapy. Your hair will continue growing and thickening for 12 to 15 months. However, the results are temporary and will last only a few hours. You must repeat the procedure atleast once a year to maintain hair growth.

 

ACell hair treatment is safe and has been used for hair regrowth for the past two decades. The risk of allergies is low since the ACell+PRP therapy uses your own blood cells.

You may not be a candidate for ACell hair therapy if you have conditions like low blood count, low platelet count, chronic liver conditions, heart disease, severe anaemia, cancer or active systemic infection.

ACell therapy can be combined with other hair growth therapies for quicker, long-lasting results. Your dermatologist will determine which treatment combinations are most suitable for you.

ACell therapy is not the same as PRP, but they are often used together. PRP uses platelet-rich plasma from your blood, while ACell uses stem cells' regenerative properties.

 

The results of the ACell+PRP therapy usually last for 1 to 2 years. You may need a few maintenance injections throughout the year to prolong the effects of ACell+PRP treatment.


 

The results of ACell+PRP therapy are not immediate and occur as per the natural lifecycle of hair growth. Most commonly, the results or effects of an ACell+PRP therapy become evident 4 to 8 months after the treatment. You may experience mild swelling or tenderness in the treated area that resolves on its own in a few hours.

 

ACell therapy, along with PRP, helps regenerate lost hair. When hair loss is treated early, these therapies can prevent further hair loss and reduce the need for aggressive hair growth procedures later in life.
