GlossaryHair Follicle Activation

process of stimulating dormant follicles to promote hair growth

Hair Follicle Activation refers to the process of stimulating dormant or inactive hair follicles to enter the growth phase, known as anagen. This can be achieved through various methods such as topical treatments, laser therapy, or microneedling, which aim to enhance blood flow, nutrient delivery, and cellular activity in the scalp, thereby promoting hair growth.
