veryone, regardless of age, wants to look their best. Call it modern living or rising pollution. We can now see that people are losing their hair at a younger age. What treatment (and acceptance) could perhaps look like in the future. The global and domestic health and wellness industry is expected to expand drastically. Health consciousness, personal grooming, and a higher standard of living have all contributed to the growth of the hair care industry. The hair and dermatology industries were thriving even before the pandemic. Add to that the stress-related hair loss seen due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Consumers look for quick and easy hair-care solutions that address their specific needs, appeal to their individuality, and do so safely and responsibly.

Technological Advancements in

eversing baldness in current times has become as simple as wearing a hat, thanks to the successful and noninvasive technologies that have been tested rigorously. With the introduction of robotics and automation in transplants, hair restoration techniques are already in the futuristic age. By providing some of the most innovative therapeutic tools, clinicians can help slow down hair loss and effectively increase hair growth. Here are some of the latest procedures used in hair recovery and restoration. The Role of Robotics in Transplant Transplant techniques lately applied for hair restoration therapy have progressed, allowing surgeons to create undetectable natural-looking hair. The advancements in robotic-assisted harvesting of follicular strands have several advantages over manual harvesting. In the last couple of years, scientists have discovered a novel approach that has evolved to perform hair restoration robotically. Such an advancement in technology has proved
16 | March 2022 | www.insightssuccess.in
Tech-Talk
17 | March 2022 | www.insightssuccess.in
to be a state-of-art technology that can assist in achieving extraordinary results in hair replacement treatments. Using this technique, a clinician can harvest on an average 800 to 1000 follicular units in an hour with minimal manual transection. The automated robotic translation saves valuable time in a standard and busy practice. For manual harvesting, the clinician needs to be very skillful, or it becomes prolonged, resulting in a higher transection rate affecting the transplant growth and may lead to suboptimal aesthetic outcomes. A significant advantage of the robotic technique is that it is minimally invasive. Historically, in the manual approach, a scare would remain, which is 15 to 18 cm, but in today’s technique, it has just 0.9 mm punches. This hair restoration technique has become very popular and has opened up to a whole new group of patients who appreciate the quick, simple, and scar-free treatment technique. The broad benefits of PRP The PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) has become a popular hair recovery or restoration procedure, particularly combined with transplant surgery. The correspondent treatment has encouraged hair growth by promoting cellular maturation and proliferation while minimizing the risk of infection and immune rejection. There are several devices and different ways to implement this technique. One is where the platelets are activated before the PRP is injected, while the other is associated with platelet activation with injection. However, it is still nonconclusive whether the key to the success of this treatment is platelet numbers or the release of growth factors by the platelets. It has revealed that PRP boosts the hair cycle, allowing patients to arrive at their desired outcomes much sooner. It has also shown great results in the treatment of scarring alopecia’s. The PRP technique is a way of combining Robotics with medical techniques. If it is performed intraoperatively, this procedure gives a boost to hair transplant and treats and helps to maintain the already exiting but thinning hair. Clinically, it helps maintain the existing hair around the transplant surface and helps in making the transplanted grafts grow much sooner.
Lateral use of Photo Biomodulation This adjunctive therapy can be used as a monotherapy or can be combined with the PRP technique. The low-level laser light is proving to be very effective and helpful in hair restoration strategies. The Photo Biomodulation technique is often used to help initiate hair growth in patients who primarily have nonscarring hair loss. The procedure includes the use of FDA-cleared home-use devices like combs, bands, and caps that employ primarily red light or, in some cases, LED light that’s has shown to help in promoting hair growth. Clinicians advise patients to use these devices for at least four months analysing the treatment progress. Patients need to adhere to the prescribed use of the devices because overuse could cause hormesis, which can cause a reverse effect and accelerate hair loss. The latest, new generation techniques such as the PRP, lowlevel laser light micro-needling, and fractional energy-based devices are safe and effective in treating hair loss. These techniques can be implemented individually and with traditional medications such as minoxidil or finasteride. If the patients want to have an optimal result, then the best and the most comprehensive method relies upon combining therapies. This helps to obtain faster results, and treatments are more effective than monotherapy. The combination of the strategies is typically personalized for each patient and depends on the type and severity of hair loss as well as compliance level, budget, and time constraints. Conclusion Historically, hair transplant and hair restoration have been a prolonged process, and often, people become impatient with their results. But modern imagery has offered a quantitative assessment and precision evolution that the patients appreciate in their improvements from therapy. The new and exciting technologies like Robotics, PRP, and Photo Biomodulation are proving very useful in hair loss, and therefore, clinicians should widely adopt and embrace these therapeutic potentials. - Shrutika Khedekar

Clinic Pvt. Ltd. The Modern Hair Care Solution Provider
S
ince ancient times, healthy hair had always been a symbol of a good life, impressive personality, and powerful aura. It is believed by many historians that the ancient science of cosmetology has its origins in Egypt. An ancient Egyptian papyrus dating back 3500 years offers a list of treatments for many illnesses, including that for 'bite hair loss or most likely alopecia areata (AA)'. The term alopecia was first used by Hippocrates. That ancient treatment remained unchanged for the next 1500 years. Cornelius Celsus, in 30 CE, described the AA disease as scalp alopecia in spots and called it 'windings of a snake' disease and prescribed caustic compounds and scarification treatment for it. Although in 1813, there came a modern description of AA, the treatment mostly remained caustic agent-based. Contemporary research in this area is widely focused on areas like genetics, dietary modulators, the microbiome, immune cell types in AA pathogenesis, the role of atopy, mechanisms in which immune cells influence hair growth, primary antigenic targets, and the new
development and treatments based on the past and present discoveries. This is modern hair care science. And your search for modernist scientific hair care ends with Cara Clinic Pvt. Ltd., a one-stop solution provider for all your hair related issues. In an interview with Insights Success, the clinic's Founder, M.D., Dermatology, hair transplant surgeon, and aesthetic physician, Dr Mohd Asif, talks more about the hair care science in general and about his clinic in particular. The excerpts are given below. Describe us about Cara in detail. Cara Clinic Pvt. Ltd, Santa Cruz, Mumbai, was founded by me and Dr Aleena Rehman in 2018. I am an M.D. Dermatology, a trained and certified hair transplant surgeon and aesthetic physician, while Dr Aleena Rehman, D.L.O (ENT), is trained in facial aesthetics and non-surgical nose reshaping. We envisioned Cara as a place where anyone could benefit from cutting-edge hair loss treatments such as 20 | March 2022 | www.insightssuccess.in
regenerative hair loss treatments, Sapphire FUE hair transplantation, and beard hair restoration. Cara was founded by us to provide clients with comfort, convenience, privacy, and thoroughly researched hair treatments. What made you venture into the hair care space? Hair science dates all the way back to ancient times, and we believe it will continue to be a never-ending field in the near future. Hair loss or thinning affects both genders and causes a slew of social problems such as professional rejection, depression, social abuse, lack of confidence, and difficulty in finding a partner. Modern science is working at the tissue level, such as hair transplantation, and at the cellular level, such as hair PRP, to regenerate hair. We believe that modern hair science has the potential to benefit millions-billions of people, and the prospect of changing people's lives fills us with joy. Still, much work is required to assist people to the best of our abilities, and we aim to provide good hair care through CARA Clinic.
India's Most Reliable Hair Clinics
Dr Mohd Asif
M.D Skin Board-certified Hair Transplant Surgeon and Founder of CARA Clinic Pvt. Ltd.
A Proficient Leader Dr Mohd Asif is a pioneer in establishing the role of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and has received numerous awards for his work at both the national and international levels. In 2011, while completing his junior residency at Hindu Rao Hospital in Delhi, he developed an interest in PRP. He was then awarded a dissertation on PRP, on which he conducted research for three years during his residency programme in Jaipur, between 2013 and 2016. His first publication on PRP occurred during his residency and was published in the British journal Cosmetic Dermatology. He has since used PRP treatments for a variety of purposes, most notably hair regeneration. He has over ten years of experience in skin and hair care and is also affiliated with numerous aesthetic care centres and medical colleges.

At the moment, we have classified hair care into three categories: • Hair Regeneration: Our goal is to assist existing hair through cell-based regenerative treatments utilising autologous platelet-rich plasma solutions. In every case, we are extremely successful at restoring hair thickness and overall hair volume. • Hair Restoration: The final results of hair transplantation must be undetectable, have a healthy overall hair volume, and improve our clients' quality of life. Our goal is to assist the balding area through surgical hair restoration techniques such as sapphire FUE micro-incisions. There is a lot to discuss about sapphire FUE, such as how
•
micro-incisions enable rapid recovery, maximum hair density, excellent safety, non-scarring hair transplantation, and completely natural-looking results. Hair Maintenance: We understand the value of hair restoration and how to overcome the fear of losing them again. Hair loss is less likely to occur with proper hair care or maintenance. We provide timely support for hair regenerative treatments and are extremely successful at it.
What kind of challenges have you faced while entering the hair care space? Due to the fact that we are being completely candid here, we have never calculated our challenges thus far. We were immediately successful in terms

of hair care treatments. Yes, there were some financial difficulties, widespread awareness issues, and multiple lockdowns due to covid, but we view these as part of the lifecycle and have nothing to do with true hair care difficulties. Being a dermatologist-led team with extensive experience in hair issues has always aided us in avoiding minor problems. How was Cara Clinic affected in these pandemic times, and what were the steps you took to curb the damages while helping your clients and maintaining the safety of your employees? We launched our venture in 2018 and were met with the wrath of lockdowns and covid outbreaks a year later. Numerous people suffered greatly as a result of this, and we believe our suffering is insignificant in comparison to others. Our team has committed to not abandoning our clients/employees during this trying time. We ensured continuous hair care through online consultations, in-person hair treatments that adhered to all Covid precautions, and on-time salaries for our employees with the option to work from home. One thing we excelled at was client education via social media; we attempted to reach out to our viewers and assist them with their questions and answers. What would you like to advise the young generation of entrepreneurs? To be honest, we believe that every successful entrepreneur in the hair care industry is young. If you're a start-up, you're probably struggling to attract more customers, but if you're on the right track, you'll succeed eventually. If you haven't evolved with the times and haven't embraced modern hair science, your success will be limited. Finally,
focus on the "return on investment" from the consumer's perspective, not just yours. A healthy balance of the two will bring joy to everyone. Where do you envision Cara to be in the long run, and what are your future goals? How do you plan to embrace the changes happening in the hair care space? At the moment, we are focusing our efforts on cellular and tissue level hair care treatments with great success. Our goal is to educate the majority of people about long-term hair loss solutions. We are interested in expanding into new cities. We are always open to new and scientifically supported hair care treatment strategies, as well as collaborating with international communities to achieve the best modern hair care possible. We have already established a strong international network and aim to be a global leader in hair care science. What is the current industrial scenario of the hair care space? The current state of hair care is a mix of good and bad practices. As is the case in other countries, some hair care cosmetics instil a sense of hope in consumers in the absence of sufficient scientific research. While these cosmetics are easy to avail of, they can cause a great deal of disappointment for consumers when they fail. This is the time for individuals to gain a basic understanding of hair thinning or hair loss issues and the treatments that are most effective. There are clinics that are making an effort to educate the public via social media and other platforms, but the final goal will take much longer to achieve. Things are improving now that people are becoming more aware of hair care
23 | March 2022 | www.insightssuccess.in
through social media platforms that are more focused on lifestyle and wellbeing. How are cosmetics affecting the health of hair? Hair cosmetics are used to enhance the aesthetics of your hair by removing excess dust or secretion from the scalp, restoring proper hair texture, and correcting superficial skin and hair damage caused by a variety of factors. You may notice a variety of fragranced but sulphate and ammonia-free shampoos, conditioners, hair waxes, hair gels, and hair treatments such as colouring, smoothing, perming, and keratin treatments. Not all of them are safe; some may have an adverse effect on the quality of your hair. Nonetheless, there is a solution to every problem; a skilled dermatologist can recommend the optimal hair care regimen for your hair. It's not that you can't colour or wax your hair; it's just how you use these treatments and how you'll address any issues with your current hair cosmetics.

Healthy Hair

Hair Essentials
M
ost of the time, men and women forget to give attention to their hair amidst their demanding schedules. Or they are perplexed about what the proper hair care routine should be among the plethora of available options.
Haircare is critical and a hygienic routine for men and women; it ensures that your hair stays nourished and strong. Nobody wants to leave their houses with frizzy, dry, and unhealthy hair. Hence, maintaining a good hair care routine is as essential as following a skincare regimen.
the right hair care products for your hair type. This helps keep your hair soft, healthy, free of infections, greasiness, and other conditions. Research shows that before choosing any hair care regimen, it is crucial to analyze your hair type and identify the causes of the hair problem. The analysis results will determine the required hair care routine and treatments. Also, it is imperative to keep in mind that the chemical treatments on hair can be harsh on the hair strands. Here are five ways to practice your hair care routine:
Just washing away your hair regularly with some products doesn’t necessarily mean you are doing it right. It also involves proper grooming and making sure you are using
1.Pump your Hair with Protein and Zinc Two of the main ingredients that may promote hair growth
are protein and biotin. The hair follicles are made up of proteins; hence, inculcating adequate protein in your diet helps hair growth. Keratin, often called the hair protein, gets its supplements from biotin. Studies have shown that consuming more biotin in eggs can help improve growth in people with biotin deficiency. Eggs are also rich in zinc, making them one of the best nutrients for healthy hair. If a person has Zinc deficiency, it can cause hair to be shed. Incorporating nuts like almonds, cashews and pecans can help combat the shedding of hair. 1.Omega, your Hair nice Omega 3 fatty acid, common in fish oil, is a rich dietary supplement to promote overall health. Studies have shown that it triggers hair growth, promotes hair strength, and nourishes hair follicles. Omega also provides essential proteins and nutrients to hair follicles and skin. It helps prevent hair follicle inflammation, a factor that can directly contribute to hair loss. It promotes blood circulation in the scalp that can trigger hair growth. The food rich in Omega 2 fatty acids is found in fish of cold waters—salmon, sardines, and herrings. Other good sources include flax seeds, yoghurt, cottage cheese, salad, cereal, and many more. 2.Know thy Hair Much like understanding your skin type is essential for executing an effective skincare routine, determining your hair type plays a considerable role in the efficacy of your daily hair regimen. And yet, choosing your correct hair type maybe be easier said than done. The obvious and the standard category of hair types are straight, wavy, curly, and coyly.
3.Choose the Right Products Choosing the wrong shampoo and conditioner can cause significant damage to your hair. When selecting the products, always consider determining your hair typenormal, oily, dry, or any specific hair problems you have, like dandruff. Avoid hard ingredients that are not easy on your hair, like ammonium lauryl sulfate or sodium lauryl sulfate. Conditioning after shampooing is an essential step in keeping your hair soft, shiny, and manageable. When choosing a conditioner, you don’t need to choose it with a built-in shampoo. It can be a separate conditioner that can help give you astonishing results. 4.Wash-up and Brush-up Studies have shown that many people over- shampoo or shampoo their hair incorrectly. This can thus cause damage, from split ends to uncontrollable frizz. Therefore, the standard rules for using a shampoo are Ÿ Don’t wash your hair daily and not more than once a day Ÿ Use only the amount of product that is required to provide full coverage to your hair Ÿ Avoid using extremely hot or extremely cold water, which can immediately damage your hair. Always remember to treat your hair right when it is wet. Never rub wet hair excessively with a towel, and never comb too much-wet hair as it results in excessive shedding. The bottom Line To maintain a healthy hair care regimen, a person should include both the food sources and the right products that suit one’s hair. An abundant supply of nutrients multivitamins can be helpful. Still, if a person is in a deficit, they can opt for dietary supplements, which can often help hair growth and overall health.
There are conflicting opinions about the product preference, which often depends upon your hair type and texture, how often you use hair products, and your activity level.

REGAIN Hair Transplant & Anti-aging Clinic
D
ue to the pandemic, everybody rediscovered that health is the real wealth. And most of them finally understood that health is directly proportional to aesthetical beauty. As excellent health means excellent beauty. Or rather, being healthy means being beautiful. But in modern hectic lifestyles, maintaining a healthy personality is a difficult task for many. Thus, they lose sleep, hunger, thirst, health, happiness, joy, and beauty. This further demotivates them and scares them to their wits. It makes them look depressed, and what more, aged in the eyes of the beholder. And many a time, they lose their selfconfidence. Dr Raji Dasari, the Founder & CEO of Regain Hair Transplant and Anti-aging Clinic, humbly requests such people not to lose hope. They can regain whatever they have lost, including a healthy lifestyle and lose whatever they do not want, including the unhealthy way of living. As a cosmetic expert, hair restoration surgeon, and aesthetician, she has almost five years of experience in this personal care field, treated more than a thousand cases, and boosted confidence in all her clients. She is so passionate about cosmetic treatments and creating beautiful faces that when the Insights Success team approached her for an interview for our edition of ‘India’s Most Reliable Hair Clinics,’ she agreed instantly.
For Your Aesthetical Beauty and Healthy Living
Below are the excerpts of that interview in aesthetics. Please, describe Regain in brief. Regain is a one roof solution for all aesthetics treatments, which includes hair transplantation, hair fall control treatments, anti-ageing treatments like Botox, fillers, nonsurgical thread lifts, pigmentation, acne, and acne scars, and semi-permanent makeup, which includes micropigmentation of eyebrows, lips, scalp, micro-blading, and semi-permanent BB glow. What made you venture into the hair care space? I have been passionate about being a doctor since my childhood. My interest in beauty and fashion made me land in the cosmetic field, which includes hair and skin and sculpting faces and creating beautiful looks and providing service in the cosmetic area as much as possible. What kind of offerings do you provide to your clients? I give a completely holistic approach to my clients. Since hair’s health ultimately depends on an individual’s overall health, it first affects cells in the human body or hair follicles if a person is not healthy enough. So, it will not give any results with only hair treatments without treating underlying health conditions. So, we first treat the underlying root causes of hair fall. After that, we provide treatments like platelet-rich plasma therapy, stem cells therapy, low-level laser therapy, nutrition supplements, and lifestyle modifications.

What kind of challenges have you faced while entering the hair care space? Since there is not a single reason for hair loss but multiple factors, it needs multiple sessions to treat hair fall. Many times, it is related to hormonal issues. It is difficult to diagnose the accurate cause of hair fall and needs a minimum of three to six months of treatment for good results. The cosmetic field is demanding and expensive, requires lots of equipment and inventories, and needs high investment demand. It was a challenge. Further, financial challenges were there in the initial stage. How was Regain affected in these pandemic times, and what were the steps you took to curb the damages while helping your clients and maintaining the safety of your employees? Yes, the pandemic impacted the cosmetic field from small businesses to large ventures. We provided online consultations, online medicines and counselling, diet, and lifestyle corrections and followed in-house COVID
restrictions and protocols. We have taken all COVID safety measurements during the pandemic. And in most of the cases we had regarding hair fall, we observed that most of them faced the issue after the COVID sickness. Any viral fevers, including COVID-19, affect human hair and usage of long-term antibiotics and antiviral drugs and post-hospitalization, the hair fall will be more. We encountered many such cases during this pandemic. What would you like to advice the young generation of entrepreneurs?

Where do you envision Regain to be in the long run, and what are your future goals? How do you plan to embrace the changes happening in the hair care space? I want to see my business entirely sophisticated, with all cosmetic services at best and affordable prices and more result-oriented and not commercial. And we are inviting more investors to expand our business all over to provide the best services to all and boost individual confidence for better living. What is the current industrial scenario of the hair care space? If we look back to ten-fifteen years, there were no doctors for hair care, and no one used to go to the doctor for hair fall. Everyone used to have healthy and long hair because of their lifestyle and the food and hair wash products. In today’s scenario, everyone is leading a stressful life, and
both women and men are working on the clock. Everyone has to travel daily for work, and it exposes their body to a lot of pollution in the environment. And the quality of food has been deteriorating, and there are more chemical-laden hair wash products available in the market. People who are more interested in styling and fashion tend to change their hairstyle every day by way of hair colouring, hair dying with chemical products, damaging their hair internally. People are mainly concentrating on external beauty rather than internal health. It must change. You all must follow a healthy and happy way of living. It will give you the kind of personal beauty which you all desire. Still, if you have lost any aspect of your beauty, you can REGAIN it with us. We provide personal care for your healthy living.
