Frequently Asked Questions About Nue Strand Hair Regrowth

What is Nue Strand?

This treatment injects serums with growth and repair ingredients directly into the follicles. The process triggers natural healing and cellular regeneration, improving thickness and stimulating regrowth in dormant follicles!

Is it permanent?

Yes, unlike topical creams that must be continued indefinitely, the growth from Nue strand is permanent. However, your adherence to the aftercare protocol and lifestyle choices (smoking, alochol use, sun exposure, prescription medications, artificial hormone usage) will effect the efficacy and longevity of your results. Occasional touch-ups can help maintain the outcome.

How many sessions are needed to see results?

Most clients see visible improvements after 1-3 sessions. However, the exact number of sessions required depends on the severity of the damage and size of the area being treated.

Does it hurt?

The treatment is generally well-tolerated, with minimal discomfort. Some people may experience slight tingling sensation during the procedure.

Are the results instant?

No, the results are gradual. However, because we use Nue Conceal serums, which are specifically formulated for faster healing, you will be able to heal in as little as two to six weeks.

Is there any downtime after the treatment?

The downtime is minimal. Some clients may experience redness, mild swelling, or skin sensitivity for a few days, but most can return to their regular activities right after treatment. However, it's important to avoid sunbathing for 30 days and excessive sweating or soaking the treated area in water for 7 days (such as pools or baths).

What are the risks or side effects?

Side effects are typically minimal but can include redness, irritation, and minor swelling. In rare cases, there may be slight hyperpigmentation, especially for darker skin tones.

Is it safe for all skin types?

Yes, the treatment is generally safe for all skin types. However, people with very sensitive skin or certain medical conditions should consult a professional before undergoing the treatment.

How long do session take?

Sessions typically last between 1.5 to 2.5 hours, depending on the size and severity of the area being treated. If you are receiving full head treatment, please allow 3-4 hours in your schedule. This includes red light therapy at the end. Numbing cream is available for very low pain tolerance individuals (but is not necessary for most clients), which takes 15-20 minutes.

Can it be combined with other treatments?

Please discontinue any topical treatments during your recovery period. If you wish to restart them, please wait a minimum of 12 weeks.

How much does it cost?

The cost varies depending on the size of the treatment area and the number of sessions required. An exact quote will be given at your consultation.

When will I see the full results of the treatment?

Full results can take 2-6 months to become apparent, but significant improvement is often seen within a few weeks!

Is there any aftercare required?

Yes, it's important to follow aftercare instructions provided by your technician, such as avoiding sun exposure, moisturizing the treated area, and refraining from intense physical activities for a few days.
