Scalp Health:

Healthy hair starts with a healthy scalp. No matter the treatment — whether PRP, FUE, FUT, or topical therapies — scalp health plays a crucial role in hair growth, thickness, and overall results. At Jernigan’s Hair Restoration Clinic in Raleigh, North Carolina, we focus on keeping your scalp in optimal condition to support both natural hair and transplanted follicles.

Here’s what you need to know about maintaining a healthy scalp and why it matters.

Morning Routine: Cleaning and Preparing the Scalp

A clean scalp is the first step toward strong, resilient hair. Daily habits, like using a gentle shampoo and avoiding harsh chemicals, remove dirt, oil, and buildup that can clog hair follicles.

At Jernigan’s, we recommend products that maintain the scalp’s natural balance and strengthen follicles, which is especially important for patients undergoing hair restoration treatments.

Midday Care: Stimulating Circulation

Blood flow delivers oxygen and nutrients to hair follicles, and circulation is key to healthy growth. Scalp massages, either by hand or with specialized tools, help increase blood flow and improve follicle health.

Our clinic also uses ultrasonic scalp treatments to gently loosen buildup, stimulate circulation, and prepare the scalp for optimal absorption of growth therapies.

Treatments and Technology

Scalp health is enhanced through professional treatments. Options include:

• PRP and PRF injections to stimulate follicle activity.
• Red light therapy to improve cellular health and circulation.
• Soothing gels and serums to calm irritation and reduce inflammation.

Each of these treatments works best when the scalp is clean, well-circulated, and free of buildup.

Evening Care: Maintaining Balance

At the end of the day, proper care includes gentle cleansing, avoiding harsh products, and applying any recommended serums or topical treatments. Consistency is key — healthy scalp habits reinforce the results of professional treatments.

Why Scalp Health Matters

A healthy scalp creates the ideal environment for strong hair growth. It reduces shedding, improves the effectiveness of hair restoration treatments, and ensures transplanted follicles thrive. At Jernigan’s, we treat scalp health as the foundation of every hair restoration plan.
