Hair Mesotherapy in Turkey

Mesotherapy delivers substances directly into the middle layer of the skin through a series of very fine, shallow injections, either by hand or with an injection device. For hair, the scalp is treated in the areas where hair is thinning.

There is no single "mesotherapy". The mixtures used for hair vary between clinics and products and can include vitamins, amino acids, minerals, peptides or medicines such as minoxidil or dutasteride in very small doses. Because the mixture decides what the treatment actually is, ask exactly what would be injected, and why, before agreeing to it.

Research on mesotherapy for hair loss is limited. Published studies are few and mostly small, they test different mixtures and schedules, and many have no comparison group, so their results are hard to compare or generalise. Some report improvements in hair density with particular mixtures; others find little effect.

Studies that inject medicines already used for hair loss, such as minoxidil or dutasteride, have produced more consistent signals than vitamin or "cocktail" mixtures, but they are still small. Dermatology societies do not list mesotherapy among the established treatments for pattern hair loss. In plain terms: it may help some people, it is not proven to help most, and you should not expect it to replace treatments with stronger evidence.

The most common reactions are pain during the injections, redness, small bruises and temporary swelling. Less often, infections, allergic reactions or skin reactions at the injection sites have been reported, which is one reason the product, its source and the hygiene of the setting matter.

Mesotherapy is generally avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding, with an active scalp infection or skin condition, with known allergies to an ingredient of the mixture, and with bleeding disorders or blood-thinning medicines unless a doctor advises otherwise.
