Hair loss, a concern affecting both men and women, often brings with it emotional distress and a search for effective remedies. While male pattern baldness typically begins in the late teens or early twenties and is largely genetic, women tend to experience hair thinning due to hormonal changes, especially during menopause. But a new treatment favored by celebrities may offer hope to those seeking to preserve or improve their hair health.
At the forefront of this movement is AMT micrografting, a cutting-edge procedure offered by Dr. Thivos Sokratous at Ouronyx Clinic in St James. Known for its holistic and highly personalized approach to aesthetic care, Ouronyx combines medical science with psychological and emotional assessments to tailor each treatment plan.
Dr. Sokratous, himself a former hair loss sufferer, champions a two-pronged strategy. The cornerstone of the clinic’s hair restoration protocol is AMT (Autologous Micrografting Technology), which begins with the extraction of stem cells from healthy hair follicles—typically located at the back of the scalp. These cells are processed into a regenerative solution and reintroduced into thinning areas using microinjections. This solution, a mix of stem cells and exosomes (cellular messengers that promote growth), begins to show results within three months and continues to improve over six, with effects lasting up to 18 months.
Complementing this is TrichoPat, a non-invasive treatment that infuses growth factors and peptides into the scalp using a mechanical device. Though the sensation may vary—some find it mildly painful, others relaxing—it works by micrograzing the scalp, triggering a wound-healing response that boosts hair shaft thickness and improves scalp condition.
Both treatments have shown measurable success. In one case, a young man saw a 30% increase in hair shaft thickness and a noticeable reduction in thin hairs after six months. His mother, who also underwent the procedure, experienced a 12% increase in thickness and significant improvements in hair density. These results underscore the effectiveness of the dual approach for individuals seeking evidence-based hair health tips and treatments.
Notably, these therapies avoid the potential side effects of traditional oral medications like Dutasteride. At Ouronyx, the drug is instead offered in a topical form to minimize systemic impact—though this option was not tested in the case study.
While AMT and TrichoPat come at a premium price and aren’t miracle cures—completely bald patches won’t suddenly sprout new growth—they do offer visible improvements in thickness and overall scalp health. For those experiencing early signs of hair thinning, this could represent a meaningful step toward restoring confidence and preserving hair health.
For everyone else, there’s always the option to embrace the bald look with pride.
