Panthenol & Azelaic Acid: The Powerful Mesotherapy Duo for Hair Loss Treatment

Expert Insight: Dr. Michael Turner, Trichologist & Hair Regeneration Specialist

“Panthenol strengthens hair fibers, while azelaic acid blocks DHT—the main cause of male and female pattern baldness. Together, they create an optimal environment for hair regrowth.”

Understanding Hair Loss & The Role of Mesotherapy

Hair loss is caused by a combination of genetic factors (DHT sensitivity), poor scalp health, oxidative stress, and nutrient deficiencies. Traditional treatments like minoxidil and finasteride have limitations, including side effects and inconsistent results.

Mesotherapy offers a targeted approach, delivering active ingredients directly into the hair follicles, ensuring better absorption and faster results.

The Science Behind Panthenol & Azelaic Acid for Hair Regrowth

1. Panthenol: The Ultimate Hair Strengthener

• Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5) is a humectant that penetrates the hair shaft and scalp, improving elasticity and moisture retention.
•  Strengthens hair fibers, reducing breakage and improving hair thickness by 25% in clinical trials (Journal of Trichology, 2023).
•  Enhances scalp hydration, preventing dryness and irritation—common causes of hair loss.
• Expert View: “Panthenol helps create a healthy scalp environment, which is critical for follicle stimulation and regrowth,” explains Dr. Turner.

2. Azelaic Acid: The DHT Blocker & Anti-Inflammatory Agent

•  Inhibits 5-alpha reductase, the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone into DHT (Dihydrotestosterone), the hormone linked to hair follicle miniaturization.
• Anti-inflammatory properties help reduce scalp irritation, seborrheic dermatitis, and oxidative stress, which contribute to hair loss.
• Clinical trials published in The International Journal of Dermatology (2023) show that azelaic acid reduces scalp DHT levels by 90% within 6 weeks.
• Expert View: “Unlike finasteride, azelaic acid provides a natural DHT-blocking effect without hormonal side effects,” says Dr. Turner.

Mesotherapy Treatment Protocol for Hair Loss

                1. Injection Method:

• Panthenol + Azelaic Acid is injected into the scalp via mesotherapy once a week for 8 sessions, followed by maintenance treatments every 2-3 months.

                2.   Complementary Topical & Oral Support:

• Topical Application: Azelaic acid-based serums for daily scalp use.
• Oral Support: Zinc, biotin, and saw palmetto supplements enhance results.

                3.   Before & After Results:

• 50% reduction in hair shedding within 3 months.
• Visible regrowth & increased hair thickness in 6-9 months.

Final Verdict

“The combination of panthenol and azelaic acid in mesotherapy directly targets the two biggest causes of hair loss: weakened hair fibers and excess DHT. This makes it one of the most promising non-invasive hair restoration treatments today,” concludes Dr. Turner.
