Regenerative Product Therapy
Regenerative products essentially do two big things for hair restoration: they give your body a signal to grow more robust hair, and also return your scalp to a state of normal response by reducing inflammation — which helps create a healthier “bed” for hair growth. In short, exosomes stimulate the scalp to create new hair growth and prevent further hair loss.
Hair Loss VitaminPhyllotex™
Dr. Halaas offers Phyllotex™, a hair loss vitamin that helps to promote thicker, more robust hair growth. This all-natural supplement utilizes four mechanisms of action (better microvascularization; a specialized blend of nutrients; protection from pollutants, and protection from the "hair assassin" protein). Phllyotex has the ability to slow hair loss in two months. Dr. Halaas says, "I personally use Phyllotex as well as recommend it to my patients because I find it that effective. It’s easy to take, offers many benefits, and most importantly, makes a difference in my and my patient's hair.”
