A doctor-led, minimally invasive treatment designed to support natural hair regrowth in individuals experiencing early to moderate hair thinning.
At Vie Aesthetics, we offer Regenera Activa®, a CE-marked medical device treatment that utilises autologous micrografting technology. This procedure aims to stimulate healthier hair growth by leveraging your body’s own regenerative capabilities.
Regenera Activa® is a one-session, doctor-led treatment that uses micrografting to support natural hair regrowth. It’s designed for men and women experiencing early-stage hair thinning. Treatment is minimally invasive, with no surgery or synthetic products involved. All consultations and procedures are carried out by Dr Ioannis Liakas in our CQC-registered clinics in Rayleigh and Holborn.
Regenera Activa uses Autologous Micrografting Technology (AMT®), where a small tissue sample is collected from your scalp, processed to isolate regenerative cells, and reintroduced into areas showing hair thinning. This process is designed to activate dormant hair follicles and improve scalp health.
Key Features:
Uses your own tissue—no synthetic substances involved
Minimally invasive with no need for stitches
Typically completed in a single session
Minimal downtime; most patients resume normal activities the same day
The procedure generally takes about 60–90 minutes. Some patients may begin to notice improvements in hair density and thickness within 3–6 months after treatment. However, results can vary based on individual factors such as age, hormonal balance, and the extent of hair thinning.
Repeat sessions may be considered to maintain or enhance outcomes.
Individual results may vary. A thorough medical assessment is conducted to determine suitability for the treatment.
Regenera Activa is most effective for individuals in the early to moderate stages of androgenetic alopecia (male or female pattern hair loss). It is not intended for those with advanced hair loss or scarring alopecia.

Please follow these guidelines before your treatment to prepare your scalp and body:
1. 7 days before:
Avoid anti-inflammatory medications (e.g. ibuprofen, aspirin) unless prescribed.
Refrain from corticosteroid treatments for the scalp.
Discontinue use of hair growth serums or topical minoxidil unless advised otherwise.
2. 3–5 days before:
Avoid alcohol and smoking. These reduce blood flow and healing potential.
Eat a balanced diet and stay well-hydrated.
3. 24–48 hours before:
Wash your hair thoroughly with a gentle shampoo.
Do not apply hair products (e.g. gels, oils, sprays) on the day of treatment.
Avoid exposure to strong sunlight or sunbeds on the scalp.
4. On the day:
Have a light meal beforehand.
Arrive with clean, dry hair and no scalp irritation.
Inform your practitioner if you feel unwell or have any scalp infections.
Proper aftercare helps ensure optimal results and comfort. Follow these instructions carefully:
Immediately after treatment:
Your scalp may feel tender or appear slightly red. This is normal and settles within 24–48 hours.
Avoid touching or scratching the treated area.
For the first 24–48 hours:
Do not wash your hair or apply any hair/scalp products.
Avoid strenuous exercise, sweating, saunas, and swimming.
Avoid alcohol and smoking.
From day 3 onward:
You can resume gentle hair washing with a mild shampoo.
Avoid harsh scalp treatments (dyes, bleaches, chemical treatments) for at least 10–14 days.
Resume hair styling products only after your practitioner gives the go-ahead.
General care for the next 4–6 weeks:
Avoid direct sun exposure to the scalp. Wear a loose hat if needed.
Use any recommended supplements or topical treatments as advised.
Stay hydrated and maintain a healthy diet to support follicle health.
Yes. You can wash your hair the next day using a mild shampoo. Avoid hot water, saunas, or strenuous exercise for 48 hours.
No downtime is usually required. You may feel mild tenderness or see slight redness in the treated area, but this typically settles within 24–48 hours.
Most patients start with one session. In some cases, a follow-up treatment may be advised after 12–18 months depending on individual response and ongoing hair thinning.
A local anaesthetic is used during the sample collection. Most people describe the experience as mildly uncomfortable rather than painful.
Initial improvements may be noticed from 8 weeks onwards. Most changes develop gradually over 4–6 months as part of the natural hair cycle.
