The Myth


The accepted assumption that thinning hair and hair loss is genetic and

unavoidable has changed.  Thinning hair can be treated and prevented. 

Although androgenic hormones play a role, it's equally the lack of

proper health and cleansing that causes these problematic yet treatable

conditions.  After years of research, trials and  development, Scalp & Skin

Works created SCALP SYSTEMS.  The removal of negative influences,

allows the scalp the ability to heal and resume healthy hair growth.

Why it Works


Skin care for the scalp cleansing treatments have shown to aid in healthier

hair growth by removing excess skin cells, dirt oil and product build up. 

Stimulation of the peel and scrub bring oxygen and nutrient rich blood to the

surface.  When combined  with certified organic hair care products and

essential oils and extracts, the hair grows healthy, strong and beautiful.


   The era of thinning hair prevention and treatment has begun . Until now,

no one had considered the cause of most hair loss and problem scalp conditions

would  be poor epidermal health.  Finding the majority of  thinning hair loss

was multi-faceted, Scalp & Skin Works incorporated  essential steps, measures

and camera scope technology, addressing what they found to be the primary

reasons and root causes of thinning hair and problem scalp conditions. When

thickened sebum  is absorbed into the layers of skin cells, it becomes

oxygenated and acts like an organic glue.  Once this barrier and  follicle

congestion is removed and healthy environments restored, the scalps ability to

heal and hair growth resumes.   Hair  producing follicles multiply in numbers

while miniaturized fine hairs become stronger and develop into terminal

hair.  Additonally, our scalp cleansing enhances the absorption rate and

effectiveness of hair therapy programs that incorportate FDA approved hair

re-growth agents. 

 

   The TreatmentOrganic natural fruit enzymes and peels rich in essential

nutrients, beta-carotene, amino acids, and antioxidants dissolve excess skin

cells gently on the scalp.  Systematically, the therapeutic manual scrub,

enhances exfoliation, excellerates hair growth, bringing oxygen and nutrient

rich blood to the follicle, while leaving the scalp feeling exceptionally clean. 


   Plaque:  An over abundance of hardened layers of skin cells, waxy

crystallized sebum and years of product and mineral deposits.  This organic

co-polymer blocks hair from penetrating the surface. Eventually, hair growth

stops and hair loss starts.

   Scope Extraction is the most fascinating part of the treatment.  With a 400

magnification cosmetic scope and monitor screen in front of them, clients view

their scalp condition.   They clearly see the extraction of sebum clogs

being safely removed from the follicle cavity.  "Amazing", is the term often

used when viewing toxins being pressed out from the follicle.
  

   Treatable Scalp Conditions include scaly patches, demodicosis, folliculitis,

eczema and psoriasis.  All are associated with the sebum gland,

hyper-production of skin cells and fungal related conditions of the scalp.  Scalp

cleansing helps to remove these barriers allowing the skin of the scalp to move

and breathe.
  

   Fibrosis Scaring. Enzyme and Glycolic peels have shown to help remove the

build up of fibrosis scaring in most clients.  With each cleansing treatment, the

upper most layer of skin is exfolliated by a highly effective manual scrub,

stimulating new cell growth. Eventually, healthy skin layers are reached and

hygiene controlled, allowing the scalps natural healing process resumes.
  

   Perspiration contains high levels of oil, DHT and salt, that when left on the

scalp, dehydrate the skin and add to the accumulation of build-up.
  

   Sebum is a naturally ocurring oil produced from the sebaceous gland

that in heathy hair and scalps, add shine and manageability to the hair.

In thinning and pattern hair loss cases, sebum becomes a waxy substance

adhering to the hair congesting the follicle cavity. Sebum  contains highly

active amounts of DHT, which results in malnutrition and miniaturization of

the hair root.  When sebum begins to harden, weakened hair can no longer

penetrate the clog.  With the opening closed off, sebum continues to

accumulate enlarging the follicle sack.

  

   Demodex Mites also known as occular mites, are parasites that colonize the

epidermis wherever there are hair roots, sebaceous glands and warm

environments exist. In medical communities, the parasite is commonly known

as the eyelash, eyebrow or ocular mite.  Occular mites, show the same

symptoms of red inflamed tissue, scaling of skin cells, itch and hair loss,

just as the Demodex of the follicle. The mite only exits the follicle to breed

upon the surface of the scalp. As it crawls, it picks up bacteria, fungus and

other impurities, then burrows back into the scalp introducing possible

infection.  Demodex mites lay up to 25 eggs in the follicle, then die shortly

after in their own acidic waste.  Demodex thrive, continually feeding on dead

skin cells, hormones and sebum, which are abundant in the warm, moist

environment of scalp and face.  By middle age and sometimes younger, the

mite has begun to colonize the face and scalp. Sadly, the end result is acne,

itchy head, scalp pimples, hair loss and problem skin.

Healthy Scalps Grow Healthy Hair

   Current options address the symptom rather than root causes.  Prevention

or treatment  is rarely mentioned.  Many claim hair growth, although only a

small percentage of consumers experience success, most of which is minimal

and often lost when the treatment has ended. The Scalp & Skin Works

terminal hair, while stronger hair producing follicles multiply in numbers. 

When used in tandem with cleansing treatments, the effectiveness of FDA

approved topical regrowth agents and oral hair 

In most pattern hair loss, the hair and follicle are effected by the conversion of

Testosterone into DHT, Dihydrotestosterone.  DHT has shown to cause

dehydration, malnutrition and miniaturization of the hair bulb.   As scalp

conditions deteriorate, skin cells accumulate and cover follicle openings.

  The Hair Growth Cycle:  
Between starting to grow and falling out years
later, hair starts to grow and falls out in three distict stages.  The anagen phase, 1000 days or more, a new hair starts at the moment it begins to grow.  At that time there is very active growth in the hair bulb.  Catagen, about 10 days, (the intermediate or resting phase) and Talogen, 100 days (the shedding phase).
