ALOHA & WELCOME
Thank
you for choosing HLCC Hawaii and the Natural Wellness Center to
address your concerns. Our entire staff welcomes you as our
client. Please be assured that we will be available to answer any
questions you may have regarding hair loss and the products and/or
services you are using. We look forward to seeing you for your
checkups to make sure the products are working for you.
The success of our products and services depends upon your
compliance. Please follow our instructions carefully and keep
follow up appointments so we can monitor your progress. Most of
all; be patient - hair does not grow quickly!
Hair Shaft:
The
hair shaft
is made of a hard protein called keratin and is made in three
layers. This protein is actually dead, so the hair that you see is
not a living structure.
The inner layer is the
medulla.
The second layer is the cortex and the outer layer is the cuticle.
The
cortex
makes up the majority of the hair shaft.
The
cuticle
is a tightly formed structure made of shingle-like overlapping
scales. It is both the cortex and the medulla that holds the
hair's pigment, giving it its color.
Cycle of Hair Growth
Hair on the scalp grows about .3 to .4 mm/day or about 6 inches
per year. Unlike other mammals, human hair growth and shedding is
random and not seasonal or cyclical. At any given time, a random
number of hairs will be in one of three stages of growth and
shedding: anagen, catagen, and telogen: 
Anagen
is the active phase of the hair. The cells in the root of the hair
are dividing rapidly. A new hair is formed and pushes the club
hair (a hair that has stopped growing or is no longer in the
anagen phase) up the follicle and eventually out. During this
phase the hair grows about 1 cm every 28 days. Scalp hair stays in
this active phase of growth for two to six years.
The Catagen
phase is a transitional stage and about 3% of all hairs are in
this phase at any time. This phase lasts for about two to three
weeks. Growth stops and the outer root sheath shrinks and attaches
to the root of the hair. This is the formation of what is known as
a club hair.
Telogen
is the resting phase and usually accounts for 6% to 8% of all
hairs. This phase lasts for about 100 days for hairs on the scalp
and longer for hairs on the eyebrow, eyelash, arm, and leg. During
this phase, the hair follicle is completely at rest and the club
hair is completely formed. Pulling out a hair in this phase will
reveal a solid, hard, dry, white material at the root. About 25
to 100 telogen hairs are shed normally each day.
Alopecia – Hair Loss
“Alopecia” is a medical term which simply means “hair loss.”
Alopecia does not refer to one specific hair loss disease.
Androgenetic Alopecia,
however, is the #1 cause of hair loss. Androgenetic alopecia can
cause an experience in hair loss as early teenage years.
- For men, this type of baldness is typically
characterized by hair loss that begins at the temples and crown.
The end result may be partial or complete baldness.
- Women with androgenetic alopecia usually have hair
loss limited to thinning at the front, sides or crown. Complete
baldness rarely occurs in women
The
majority of women with androgenic alopecia have diffuse thinning
on all areas of the scalp. Men on the other hand, rarely have
diffuse thinning but instead have more distinct patterns of
baldness. Some women may have a combination of two pattern types.
Androgenic alopecia in women is due to the action of androgens,
male hormones that are typically present in only small amounts.
How
DHT Shrinks and Kills your Hair!
1)
Testosterone is converted to Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) by 5
Alpha Reductase (5AR) Enzyme.
2)
DHT attaches to the androgen receptors on the hair
follicle.
3)
DHT causes increased hair loss; gradually miniaturizing the
hair follicle.
4)
This miniaturized hair follicle eventually dies and hair
loss occurs.
IMPORTANT ACTIONS TO PREVENT ABNORMAL HAIR LOSS
§Never
pull on your hair. It is ordinarily better to use a comb rather
than a brush. Along the same lines, never dry your hair by
rubbing it with a towel. Instead use the towel as a sponge.
§Do not wear any wig
without the counsel of your physician.
§Do not use permanents
and colorants without the counsel of your physician.
§Daily shampoos are
acceptable if using Scalp Scripts shampoo. All other
detergent shampoos are likely to cause further damage. Always
rinse thoroughly.
§Good nutrition is
important. Diet must include adequate protein intake and be well
balanced.
§Try to avoid fatty
foods since they not only increase your serum lipids but also are
liable to increase secretion of your scalp sebaceous glands.
§In excessive amounts,
Vitamin A has been known to cause hair loss.
§Raw eggs may decrease
Biotin in your body. Cook them well.
§Avoid any actions
that tend to brutalize the scalp such as vibro massage.
§Avoid sunburn on your
scalp.
§Always
rinse your hair after bathing in chlorinated or salt water

What
is Laser Hair Therapy or LLLT?
LLLT is defined as “a cool laser that effectively stimulates the
area and
causes an increase in blood flow and causes
Photo-bio-stimulation”.
Photobiostimulation is the biochemical, non-thermal
effect that results from the exposure of living tissue to
various dosage of energy at varying wavelengths emitted
from low level lasers.
Five distinct effects are known to occur:
1.
An increase in ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) and protein
synthesis – causing an increase in osmotic cellular function
2.
Improved cell proliferation (Growth)
3.
Increase in protein synthesis, causing a change in cell
membrane permeability
4.
Increased blood circulation by 54% after only one
treatment, providing a supply of nutrients to the hair follicle
5.
Clinically proven to increase the size of the Capillaries
under the hair follicle
All 5 of the above reactions affect hair growth!!
HLCC
Scripts Complete™ stops DHT from Killing your Hair
1.
HLCC Scripts Complete™ harmlessly binds to Androgen Receptors on
your hair and stops DHT from binding to hair follicles and
shrinking/killing your hair.
2. With less DHT binding to your Androgen Receptors, your hair
starts to grow and resumes the normal cycle of hair growth.
3. As less and less DHT binds to your hair, it has the chance to
grow into a strong healthy hair. Small hairs can grow bigger and
your dormant hair can start to grow again.
What
Hinders Topicals or Minoxidil from Working Well?
Sebum
from sebaceous gland blocks the hair follicle. MGT & Minoxidil
therefore, cannot penetrate through the sebum as easily to get to
the dermal papilla (where hair growth occurs).
Minoxidil / Rogaine and other Topicals (which can contains up to
70% alcohol) stays on the surface causing, in many cases,
irritation and itching of the scalp and drying of the hair shaft.
Minoxidil works at the dermal papilla, not on the scalp surface.
Limited Penetration = Limited Results!
How Did We Improve Minoxidil?
HLCC Scalp Therapy breaks up and dissolves sebum - After
Dexpanthenol has hydrated the outer layer and dissolved the sebum,
Minoxidil in carrier solution penetrates down to the dermal
papilla. Remember, Minoxidil only works at the dermal papilla
level, not on the scalp, so if it can’t penetrate it can’t work to
re-grow hair.
Before
HLCC Scalp Therapy
After HLCC Scalp Therapy
Carrier Solution is a product which neutralizes the alcohol and
propylene glycol in Minoxidil, while maintaining it in a liquid
state, allowing for better penetration, less irritation, and
dryness of the scalp. Use of the carrier lotion allows you to use
less Minoxidil to achieve a larger effective dosage level by
converting it into a lotion that is more easily absorbed.
Because of the improved delivery system, the amount of Minoxidil
needed was significantly reduced (by 50%) to 1ml daily.
We
Chart Your Progress! - Check-Ups are Critical:
Ø
Every month we would like to see you, but it is very important on
months 1, 3 & 6.
Ø
Month #1 – we need to see that the program is working – we should
notice a cleaner scalp
Ø
Month 3 is important, because if it is not working as aggressively
as you would like, we can modify your program to get you quicker
results.
Ø
You are going to see results under the scope before you see them
in the mirror, and seeing results keeps momentum high, which keeps
compliancy high.
Ø
We will take digital photographs every 3 months.
How
will long will it take to see results?
p
Everyone is different! That is why each client’s individual needs
are determined during our medical consultation.
p
Most people see Hair loss slow or Stop in the first few months and
then some hair regrowth in the first 2-4-6 months. However, some
people require between 6 months to 1 year to see results.
p
Best result are generally seen in the first 12 to 24 months,
therefore, we recommend 1 year programs for most people.
p
If you are not seeing the results you want at 3 or 6 months, we
can easily adjust your program to include other treatments like
higher strength Minoxidil and/or added laser.
