The aesthetic doctor Dr Munir Somji will offer the hair follicle-stimulating treatment at his clinics in Knightsbridge and Marylebone.
Calecim is launching its Resilient Hair Rehab treatment in-clinic with leading aesthetic doctor Dr Munir Somji. It will be available at his Dr MediSpa clinics in London’s Knightsbridge and Marylebone.
By bringing the treatment into Dr Somji’s clinics, Calecim is combining its hair follicle-stimulating technology with the aesthetic doctor’s well-regarded expertise. Alongside providing an in-clinic solution for those with hair thinning concerns, the partnership also includes the option of DNA hair testing to support clients suspected of having genetically influenced hair fall.
The Calecim Resilient Hair Rehab treatment is powered by cell-signalling technology – namely a proprietary active ingredient derived from umbilical cord lining stem cells. It’s said to help activate dormant hair follicle cells to accelerate follicle cell production and restore a healthy hair cycle. The serum application is combined with microneedling to stimulate growth and create a healthier environment for thicker, glossier, and more resilient hair.
According to the company, the Calecim Professional Advanced Hair System contains an extremely high yield of stem cell extract, of about 80% concentration, with 1ML of the active ingredient containing at least 3000 growth factors and proteins. The red deer umbilical cord-derived stem cells used in the formula are reportedly the richest source of stem cells from a non-embryonic source.
The programme has clinically validated results that see a 24% increase in the growth of hair follicle cells and a 30 times reduction in inflammatory signals within the hair follicle (a leading contributor to hair cell follicle death). It has been clinically proven that stem cell-derived growth factors can re-invigorate dormant and sluggish hair follicles. The system also has no reported side effects.
During the in-clinic treatment, Dr Somji will perform a thorough scalp analysis before a lead practitioner uses a professional-grade micro-needling device to delicately puncture the skin of the thinned hair area. Afterwards, the Calecim serum is applied and massaged into the target area. The hair should not be washed for 24 to 48 hours post-treatment.
Dr Somji also has the option to send patients’ hair for a hair DNA test to check for any underlying health conditions. Results are available within 2 weeks and a relevant prescription will be made alongside an at-home supply of Calecim to maximise results.
“I am a fan of Calecim as it is not only a highly effective treatment for my patients that also has impressive peer-reviewed papers and clinical trials,” says Dr Somji. “The Calecim technology works better due to the stem cells used within the technology, as they are product stabilised in a laboratory, meaning they have the greatest efficacy for the longest period of time.”
“The product contains growth factors, which can trigger your own stem cells within the hair follicle. The cellular messaging is taken from umbilical stem cell extract, the lead ingredient in Calecim, which sends signals to your own stem cells to decrease anti-inflammatory cues and accelerate follicle cell growth. This allows me to truly offer transformative results for my clients which can promote new hair growth and minimise scalp inflammation.”
Calecim Professional was created by Singapore-based Biotech company CellResearch and channels 18 years of stem-cell research into creating its Calecim Professional formula. For more information, visit calecimprofessional.com
