Alma TED at The Hair Clinic Remuera: Revolutionary Hair Restoration Technology
The Hair Clinic Remuera is thrilled to be the first clinic in New Zealand to offer Alma TED. A cutting-edge treatment for hair restoration and scalp health. Spearheaded by Dr. Morunga, the Key Opinion Leader in New Zealand for Alma TED, this clinic provides unmatched expertise and results for patients looking to address hair thinning and loss with a non-invasive, effective solution.
What Is Alma TED?
Alma TED (TransEpidermal Delivery) is an advanced hair restoration system that uses ultrasound technology to deliver active ingredients directly to the scalp. This innovative approach supports hair follicle regeneration, improves blood circulation, and strengthens existing hair for thicker, healthier growth.
Mechanism of Action
Alma TED employs ultrasound waves and air pressure to open pathways in the scalp without needles or discomfort. Through these pathways, hair-restorative compounds, such as exosomes, peptides and growth factors, are absorbed deeply into the skin. This enhances nutrient delivery to hair follicles, improves scalp vascularization, and reactivates dormant hair follicles, promoting new growth and strengthening existing hair strands.
How TED Promotes Hair Growth
The ultrasound and air pressure technologies improve cellular activity in the scalp, enhancing the delivery of nutrients essential for hair follicle regeneration. The increased blood circulation nourishes hair roots, helping transition follicles into the active growth phase (anagen), resulting in improved density, texture, and volume.
Hair Restoration with Advanced Fractional Radiofrequency
The Alma TED is an innovative device designed to revolutionize hair restoration treatments also using Fractional Radiofrequency (RF) technology. This cutting-edge technology provides a non-invasive solution for stimulating hair follicles and promoting hair regrowth.
The Alma TED uses fractional RF energy to penetrate the scalp, creating micro-injuries in the dermal layers. These controlled micro-injuries stimulate the body’s natural healing process, boosting circulation and collagen production in the scalp. The result is enhanced hair follicle health, which leads to stronger, thicker, and more vibrant hair growth.
Unlike traditional hair restoration methods, such as hair transplants, Alma TED offers a non-invasive, needle-free solution with minimal discomfort and downtime. Treatment times are quick, typically lasting 10-15 minutes per session, allowing patients to resume their daily activities almost immediately.
Indications
Alma TED is suitable for individuals experiencing:
1. Hair thinning or shedding
2. Androgenetic alopecia (male or female pattern baldness)
3. Postpartum hair loss
4. Stress-related hair loss
5. Hair loss from aging or hormonal change
Contraindications
The treatment is not recommended for individuals with:
1. Active scalp infections or conditions such as psoriasis or eczema
2. Scalp wounds or inflammation
3. Pregnancy or breastfeeding
4. Severe autoimmune disorders affecting the skin or hair
5. Alopecia caused by chemotherapy or radiation
The Power of Fractional Radiofrequency for Hair Regrowth
At the heart of the Alma TED is its Fractional Radiofrequency (RF) technology, designed to improve hair regrowth by stimulating the scalp and rejuvenating hair follicles. The RF energy is delivered in fractional pulses, creating controlled micro-injuries in the scalp’s dermis. These micro-injuries activate the body’s healing response, enhancing blood flow and stimulating collagen production, which promotes healthier, stronger hair growth.
This approach mimics the effects of more invasive treatments, but without the associated risks or extended downtime. While traditional hair restoration methods may involve surgical procedures or injections, the Alma TED provides an efficient, comfortable alternative with minimal recovery time.
The Alma TED is a breakthrough treatment for individuals seeking to improve hair density and reduce hair thinning, offering a safe and effective solution with fast healing and remarkable results.
Treatment Timeline and Maintenance
A typical Alma TED course involves 3 - 6 sessions spaced 4 weeks apart, depending on the severity of hair loss and individual needs, with each session lasting 20–30 minutes, is entirely non-invasive, and requires no recovery time. Patients often notice reduced shedding and enhanced hair texture within 4–6 weeks, with optimal results in 3–6 months. To maintain results, follow-up treatments every 6–12 months are recommended.
Enhancing Results with PRP
Adding Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy to Alma TED treatments can enhance outcomes. PRP delivers growth factors directly to the scalp, accelerating hair regeneration and complementing TED’s effectivenes
Why Choose Alma TED?
Unlike traditional hair restoration methods, Alma TED is needle-free and pain-free, offering a safe, comfortable, and effective treatment option. It not only targets existing hair loss but also strengthens follicles to prevent future thinning.
