When topical serums and oral supplements fail to deliver results for hair loss, the problem is often absorption. Dr. John Watts — dermatologist, trichologist and hair transplant surgeon in Hyderabad — explains how the Mesogun addresses this limitation and who it can benefit.
What is the Mesogun?
The Mesogun is a motorised, injectable medical device that delivers nourishing growth serums directly into the scalp through micro-injections. Unlike topical solutions that barely penetrate the skin or oral supplements that are diluted throughout the body, the Mesogun ensures the treatment is targeted right at the hair follicle level.
Key advantages over manual injection
Even distribution of serum across the scalp, minimal discomfort due to automated precision, faster procedure time, better absorption at the follicle level, reduced pain from fine controlled micro-injections, and adjustable speed based on scalp area and skin sensitivity.
What treatments does the Mesogun deliver?
According to Dr. Watts, the Mesogun is used to administer advanced hair therapies including GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) and other biological stimulants. It covers a wider scalp area quickly and accurately, pumping growth serum directly at the follicular level.
How many sessions are needed?
On average, 4 to 6 sessions are recommended to see optimal results in terms of increased hair density and reduced hair fall.
Is it safe?
Mesogun therapy is generally safe and well-tolerated. The most common side effect is mild redness on the scalp, which typically subsides within 24 hours. Patients can usually return to their routine activities shortly after the session.
