Male Hair Loss Restoration - Before and After Treatment with Regenera Activa
Regenera Activa - A new hope for hair loss
Hair loss is a common condition effecting many men and up to 30% of women.
Treatment options to date have been somewhat limited, however a totally new treatment is now available, and Envisage Clinic is excited to be one of the first clinics in Australia offering Regenera Activa as an option.
Current medical options for hair loss are as follows;
Regenera Activa is a novel type of treatment. Essentially very small (2-3mm) plugs of hair bearing skin are removed from the back of the head under a small local anaesthetic.
This tissue is then processed in clinic to yield about 5mls of cell rich serum. This is then injected into the area of concern. The serum is rich in stem and progenitor cells which stimulate follicles.
One of the major benefits of Regenera is that only one treatment is performed every year to two years. This compares to platelet rich plasma which necessitates a series of usually 4 treatments with top up treatments every 6-12 months. Ultimately this makes Regenera a much more efficient treatment with far fewer consultations and sessions, and less overall cost.
Regenera treatments are quick (about 30 minutes, minimally invasive, drug and enzyme free, and relatively pain free.
European studies have been very promising.
Other uses for Regenera
Regenera can be used wherever rejuvenation of cutaneous structure or function is desired. It has been shown to be beneficial in vitiligo, scars, stretch marks, and for general skin rejuvenation.
Things That You Need to Know About a Hair Transplant
A hair transplant is a surgery that permanently restores hair by removing a narrow strip of hair-bearing scalp. The strip is taken from a part of your head that contains a dense hair growth. It is used to fill a section with thin or no hair. The majority of hair transplants are conducted in the doctor’s office under local anaesthesia. During the transplant process, the primary step the doctor takes is to clean the scalp section, and then injects an anaesthetic in order to numb the section where a small section of the strip of scalp will be removed. After removing the strip of scalp by the use of a scalpel, it will be set aside, and the scalp will be closed and immediately hidden by the hair around it. For the next step, the section of the removed hair-bearing scalp will be divided by the doctor into tiny grafts containing only an individual hair or a few amounts of hair follicles each. The amount and type of graft used depends on the hair type, color, size, and quality of the section where it will be transplanted.
Before and After the Day of Surgery
You may bring your favourite book or magazine to read, or just select from our own reading facilities. If you want to watch television, feel free to bring your preferred DVD, or simply enjoy a light nap – the decision is completely up to you.
After the procedure, an appointment is suggested within ten days to remove sutures and to check the status of the scalp. This can be provided free of charge.
Our Expectation / Recovery
After undergoing hair transplant surgery, you will have a very tender scalp. Over-the-counter pain relief medication is recommended to address this. Recovery to the point of returning back to your daily routines and activities typically takes between 2 to 5 days after surgery.
In a span of 2 to 3 weeks after the hair transplant, the transplanted hair will slowly fall out – but you will slowly notice new hair growth within a few months and usually will attain 60 percent of new hair growth after 6 to 9 months.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Regenera Activa treatment hurt? There is very little discomfort from a Regenera treatment. A small injection of local is used at the donor area, the actual Regenera injections are generally only mildly uncomfortable.
The actual treatment takes less than half an hour
None or very little. There will be three tiny stiches at the back of the head. Generally there is no swelling or bruising. We advise no saunas very hot showers, or excessive exercise for 48 hours.
Almost none. The treatment is drug and enzyme free.
Unlike most hair loss treatments that take 3-9 months to see results, improvement is often seen just 4 weeks after a Regenera treatment. Further improvement occurs over another 2-5 months.
Yes certainly. Regenera may be combined with any other hair loss medication, and combination treatment is often best.
Current recommendations are that Regenera is best reserved for male pattern hair loss and androgenic alopecia in men and women. Dr leat will assess your suitability prior to treatment and may recommend blood tests before treatment to rule out other causes.
We all know that any surgical procedure carries risks. Hair transplantation may include bleeding and infection. Some risks that are posed include unnatural-looking new hair growth and scarring. When new hair growth starts, people experience inflammation of the hair follicles. This can be cured by antibiotics and cold compresses. It can also include the so-called shock loss – a sudden loss of transplanted hair, which is rarely permanent.
If you want to minimise the previously mentioned risks and improve the success of surgery, it is very important to go through hair transplantation only if you are physically and mentally well. You should always weigh up the potential risks and advantages of any surgery with your doctor prior to going ahead with the surgery.
All hair transplants are performed by Dr Christopher Leat at Medici Capelli clinic on Chevron Island on the Gold Coast. For all enquiries, please call the team at Medici Capelli on 5526 9255
