Benefits

As people age, hair loss becomes increasingly common among middle-aged and older adults, often presenting as thinning hair, finer strands, and slower hair growth. This not only affects appearance but can also impact selfconfidence, prompting many to seek effective hair regrowth solutions in Singapore. TCM offers a natural, holistic approach to addressing hair loss. At a TCM clinic, physicians assess each individual’s constitution and the underlying causes of hair loss before creating a personalised treatment plan. Scalp acupuncture is one of the most commonly used and effective methods in this process

Key benefits of hair growth acupuncture include:

  • Promoting scalp blood circulation to nourish hair follicles, nerves, and blood vessels
  • Creating a healthy and nutrient-rich environment for hair growth
  • Relieving mental stress to help reduce stress-induced hair loss
  • Regulating hormone levels to address hormone-related hair loss
  • Supporting scalp health and follicle vitality to encourage consistent, healthy hair growth
  • Relieves facial muscle tension and softens stressrelated expressions

The Process of Acupuncture for Hair Growth

1. Initial Consultation

Before beginning hair loss management and hair growth treatments, the TCM physician will conduct a thorough assessment of your hair and scalp condition. This will be combined with traditional diagnostic methods such as observation and inquiry to gain a comprehensive understanding of your overall health and identify the root causes that may be affecting hair growth.

2. Personalised Hair Growth Plan

Based on the assessment results, the physician will design a customised treatment plan. This may include acupuncture sessions, internal or topical herbal therapy, and other complementary methods to address hair loss from the inside out.

3. Acupuncture Sessions & Duration

Each acupuncture session typically lasts between 30–60 minutes. Depending on the severity of hair loss and individual response to treatment, a full course of 10–15 sessions is recommended for noticeable improvement.

4. Post-Treatment Care

After the treatment, the TCM physician will provide guidance on diet, lifestyle habits, and self-care routines to help consolidate the results and promote long-term scalp and follicle health.

Q: How long will it take to see results? A: Acupuncture for hair growth is not an instant solution, and results vary from person to person. The treatment works primarily by regulating hormonal imbalances that may contribute to hair loss and by improving blood circulation to the scalp. Most individuals notice improvements in hair density, texture, or growth rate after completing 10–15 sessions. The exact timeline depends on your personalised treatment plan and body constitution, so we recommend discussing your expectations in detail with your TCM physician or therapist.
