Polynucleotides for Hair Loss

Polynucleotides for Hair Loss


Hair loss

affects both women and men and can significantly undermine self-confidence. But there is no need to simply accept it! Modern medicine offers highly effective therapies – even without a hair transplant or hormonal support. One of the most advanced approaches in this field is the application of polynucleotides to the scalp. The treatment can stimulate hair growth, improve hair structure and thickness, and effectively counteract
hair loss

. The only prerequisite: a sufficient number of active hair follicles must still be present. Whether this is the case is assessed at our practice using specialised skin analysis methods, which also provide us with initial indications of the possible causes.


In men

, who are particularly frequently affected by
hair loss

, androgenetic alopecia is often the underlying cause – also known as hereditary
hair loss

. Genetic factors and hormonal changes, in particular an
increased sensitivity of the hair follicles to dihydrotestosterone (DHT)

, lead to a shortening of the hair growth phase and miniaturisation of the hair follicles. The result: the hair becomes finer and thinner, and bald patches begin to appear.

Causes of hair loss


In men

, who are particularly frequently affected by
hair loss

, androgenetic alopecia is often the underlying cause – also known as hereditary
hair loss

. Genetic factors and hormonal changes, in particular an
increased sensitivity of the hair follicles to dihydrotestosterone (DHT)

, lead to a shortening of the hair growth phase and miniaturisation of the hair follicles. The result: the hair becomes thinner, sparser, and bald patches appear.


In women

, hormonal shifts also frequently play a role – for example during pregnancy, the menopause, or in the case of thyroid disorders. Genetic factors, stress, nutritional deficiencies, certain medications, and scalp conditions can also be triggers.

Polynucleotides: Mechanism of Action and Key Features


Polynucleotides

are natural DNA and RNA fragments. When injected into the scalp, they can promote cell regeneration and healing. In this context, healing means: they support the
restoration of damaged hair follicles

, improve nutrient supply, and thereby promote healthy hair growth. The treatment is
minimally invasive

– we administer very small microinjections, which typically take no more than a few minutes. Although the injections are not entirely comfortable, the tiny needle insertions are generally well tolerated. A pre-treatment with a topical anaesthetic lotion is available on request.


PRP

&
Polynucleotides

for
Hair Loss

– A Dual Stimulus for Hair Growth


Both treatments
alternated

(approximately 4–5 weeks apart) specifically activate regenerative processes at the hair root – and in combination, their effects are significantly enhanced. With
PRP

, we supply the scalp with growth factors and improve microcirculation.
Polynucleotides

additionally support cell regeneration and create a favourable environment for active hair growth.


The synergy of both treatments can
slow hair loss

, stabilise hair density, and support the regrowth of stronger hair – particularly in the early to moderate stages of non-scarring hair loss.

Your benefits of polynucleotide treatment:


  • Strengthening of hair follicles

  • Stimulation of hair growth

  • Revitalisation of the scalp

  • Improved scalp circulation

  • Fast results, usually after just a few sessions

The treatment process at the Schuhmann & Colleagues practice


Before commencing your treatment, we carry out a
thorough analysis of your hair and scalp condition

. This helps us to identify the cause of your hair loss. The analysis is complemented by a detailed consultation and, of course, a medical examination.


  1. Before we begin the treatment, your scalp is cleansed and disinfected as required. Where appropriate, we recommend an additional Keravive treatment – as a deep-cleansing preparation to ensure optimal absorption of the
    polynucleotides

    .

  2. The injection itself is performed with very fine needles – you will feel virtually nothing. The polynucleotide solution is injected directly into the affected areas.

  3. After the treatment, we will provide you with personalised aftercare advice and tips on how to support the scalp regeneration process.

Limitations of polynucleotide treatment and alternative therapies


Although polynucleotide treatment is effective for many forms of hair loss, there are cases in which it may be less suitable:


  • Advanced
    hair loss

    : If pronounced bald patches are already present, hair transplantation may be the better option. In this case too, we are your expert point of contact.

  • Scarring

    :
    Hair loss

    resulting from scars or injuries also frequently requires specialised treatment approaches.

Alternative and combined therapies


PRP

(Platelet-Rich Plasma)

: Combining polynucleotides with
PRP

can act synergistically, further stimulating both regeneration and hair growth.


Microneedling

: Micro-injuries created by fine needles stimulate collagen production – including in the scalp. This process, combined with increased blood circulation, can enhance the effectiveness of the treatment.


Exosome therapy

:
Exosomes

are cellular messengers that enable and promote communication between individual cells. Their application – also an innovative approach – can support the rejuvenation and regeneration of hair roots.

Combination with Keravive


To prolong and enhance the results of polynucleotide treatment, we recommend combining it with Keravive. This medical-cosmetic treatment improves scalp health through deep cleansing and stimulation of circulation. Applied between polynucleotide sessions, Keravive can help to create an optimal environment for hair growth.

HairMetrix Analysis: Precision Diagnostics for Individualised Therapies


We work with HairMetrix by Canfield – an AI-powered, scientifically validated technology from the USA. The analysis provides us with detailed data on the condition of the scalp and hair, without any invasive intervention, based exclusively on high-resolution images and metrics such as hair density, follicle health, and hair shaft thickness. Using the analysis results, we can narrow down – and in some cases already identify – the causes of your hair concerns, and create a personalised treatment plan for you.

Hair Transplantation: When Is It the Right Choice?


In some cases, hair transplantation should be considered – when other therapies have not achieved the desired outcome, or in cases of advanced
hair loss

. Hair transplantation is also one of the specialist areas of the
Dr. Schuhmann

& Colleagues practice: the patient's own hair follicles are harvested from areas of dense growth and transplanted to the bald areas.

How many sessions are needed to see visible results?


As a general guide,
3 to 4 sessions at intervals of 2 to 4 weeks
are recommended. The basis is always your individual treatment plan, which we create for you on the basis of the hair analysis.

How do polynucleotides differ from conventional hair growth products?


Conventional hair growth products such as minoxidil often act symptomatically and require continuous use.
Polynucleotides
, by contrast, stimulate cell regeneration at a deep biological level, resulting in a revitalisation of the hair roots. This makes polynucleotide treatment a cause-oriented approach, particularly for non-scarring
hair loss
.

What role does scalp health play in the treatment?


A healthy scalp is essential for strong hair growth.
Polynucleotides
can improve microcirculation and, with it, the nutrient supply to the hair roots – creating the ideal conditions for complementary treatments with
PRP
or
exosomes
.

Can polynucleotide treatment be used preventively?


Polynucleotides
can also be used preventively – for example, to halt early-stage
hair loss
or to make the hair follicles more resilient overall. This is particularly relevant in the case of a genetic predisposition.

Are there differences in the treatment approach between men and women?


In men, the focus is often placed on strengthening the hair follicles in the areas of the temples and crown. Women benefit in particular from improved hair density along the parting. Furthermore, the hormonal causes differ, making personalised treatment plans essential.
