Healthy Scalp, Gorgeous Hair: Why Scalp Treatments Matter in the Summer Heat
When we think of healthy, beautiful hair, we often focus on shampoos, conditioners, and styling products. But did you know that the foundation of gorgeous hair starts at the scalp? Especially during the hot summer months, your scalp needs just as much attention as your hair—if not more. Healthy scalp treatments are the secret to strong, vibrant hair, and at Elevate Wellness and Medspa, we offer cutting-edge solutions like Nouvaderm laser, Scalp Spa, HydraFacial® Keravive™, and PRP for hair growth to help you realize the maximum potential of your hair.
Why Scalp Health is Essential for Gorgeous Hair
Your scalp is living, breathing skin—just like the skin on your face. It produces oil, collects sweat, and sheds dead skin cells regularly. When that natural process is disrupted—especially by summer heat, sun exposure, or product buildup—it can lead to issues like:
* Clogged hair follicles
* Itchy, flaky scalp
* Increased hair shedding or thinning
* Excess oil production
* Poor hair growth
Healthy scalp treatments address these issues at the root, literally and figuratively. By cleansing, nourishing, and stimulating the scalp, you create the ideal environment for strong, shiny, healthy hair.
Summer Challenges for Scalp Health
Summer might be your favorite season for outdoor adventures, pool days, and beach vacations, but it’s also the most challenging season for maintaining scalp health. Here’s why:
1. Sweat and Oil Buildup
High temperatures cause your scalp’s sebaceous glands to go into overdrive, producing more oil than usual. Combined with sweat, this can lead to clogged follicles, breakouts on the scalp, and an itchy, irritated feeling.
2. Sunscreen and Hair Product Residue
We all know sunscreen is essential, but using sunscreen sprays on your hair or scalp can leave behind residue. Along with dry shampoo, leave-in conditioners, and styling products, this creates a buildup that regular shampoo might not remove.
3. Chlorine and Saltwater Exposure
Pool chlorine strips the scalp of its natural oils, leaving it dry and flaky, while saltwater from the ocean can dehydrate both your scalp and hair. Over time, this leads to irritation and potential hair breakage or thinning.
4. Increased Hair Thinning
Hair naturally goes through shedding cycles, but environmental stress in summer can accelerate this. Heat damage, UV exposure, and scalp congestion all contribute to thinner, weaker hair.
The Solution: Professional Healthy Scalp Treatments
At Elevate Wellness and Medspa, we’re passionate about offering effective, luxurious treatments that target scalp health at its source. Our three most popular and effective healthy scalp treatments include:
1. Scalp Spa Treatment
Think of our Scalp Spa as a facial for your scalp. This deeply cleansing, revitalizing treatment removes buildup, detoxifies follicles, and restores balance to your scalp.
Benefits of the Scalp Spa Treatment:
* Deep Cleansing: Gently exfoliates dead skin cells and buildup from products or hard water.
* Detoxification: Clears impurities and helps prevent clogged follicles, which can inhibit healthy hair growth.
*Soothing Hydration: Nourishes dry or flaky areas to leave your scalp comfortable and balanced.
* Boosted Hair Growth Potential: By creating a healthier scalp environment, your hair can grow stronger, shinier, and fuller.
Who Is It For?
If you regularly use dry shampoo, styling gels, or spend time outdoors sweating under hats or helmets, Scalp Spa is the ideal reset for your scalp.
Frequency:
For optimal results during the summer, we recommend scheduling a Scalp Spa treatment every 4-6 weeks.
2. HydraFacial® Keravive™ (Keravive) Scalp Treatment
HydraFacial Keravive—sometimes referred to as Keravive—is a breakthrough treatment specifically designed for scalp health. It uses the same powerful suction and hydration technology of the HydraFacial, but tailored for your scalp.
How Does Keravive Work?
Step 1: Cleanse & Exfoliate
Using a gentle suction device, this step removes dirt, excess oil, and product buildup from the scalp and follicles.
Step 2: Hydrate & Nourish
Next, the scalp is infused with a proprietary blend of growth factors and skin proteins to nourish and revitalize.
Benefits of HydraFacial Keravive:
Promotes Thicker, Fuller Hair: Ideal for clients experiencing hair thinning or shedding.
Improves Circulation: Helps deliver more oxygen and nutrients to hair follicles.
Reduces Scalp Flakiness: Targets dryness and irritation, even from conditions like mild seborrheic dermatitis.
Clinically Proven Results: Many clients report visible improvement in hair fullness and scalp health within weeks.
Who Should Get Keravive?
If you’re struggling with thinning hair, visible scalp flakiness, or simply want a professional refresh during summer, HydraFacial Keravive is the treatment of choice.
Frequency:
Most clients benefit from 3 treatments spaced 1 month apart, followed by regular maintenance.
3. PRP for Hair Growth (Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy)
For those experiencing hair thinning or early stages of hair loss, PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a revolutionary, regenerative solution that taps into your body’s own healing power.
What Is PRP for Hair?
PRP is derived from your own blood. After drawing a small amount of blood, it’s spun in a centrifuge to isolate growth factor-rich plasma. This plasma is then injected into your scalp to stimulate dormant hair follicles.
Benefits of PRP Scalp Treatments:
Natural Hair Regrowth: Stimulates the natural growth cycle of hair without surgery or harsh chemicals.
Improves Hair Density and Strength: Encourages new hair growth and strengthens existing strands.
Non-Invasive: Minimal downtime, with natural-looking results.
Safe and Proven: Used widely in regenerative medicine for healing, with excellent success rates for hair restoration.
Who Should Consider PRP?
PRP is ideal for men and women experiencing early stages of hair loss or thinning hair due to genetics, stress, hormonal changes, or seasonal stressors like summer heat.
Frequency:
PRP typically requires a series of 3-4 treatments spaced about 4-6 weeks apart, with maintenance treatments every 6-12 months.
Combining Treatments for Maximum Results
Many clients find that combining these healthy scalp treatments leads to the best results. For example, starting with a Scalp Spa to detoxify and prepare the scalp, following up with HydraFacial Keravive to nourish, and then committing to PRP treatments to stimulate new growth creates a synergistic, powerful hair restoration plan.
Our providers at Elevate Wellness and Medspa will customize a treatment plan tailored to your scalp condition, hair goals, and lifestyle.
Healthy Scalp Tips for At-Home Maintenance
In addition to professional treatments, here are some key tips to maintain a healthy scalp all summer long:
1. Use a Clarifying Shampoo Weekly
Regular shampoo may not cut it when it comes to removing product buildup and sweat. A clarifying shampoo once a week helps reset your scalp and prepare it for conditioning and treatments.
2. Protect Your Scalp from UV Damage
Just like your skin, your scalp can burn. Wear hats when outdoors and look for hair products with UV protection.
3. Don’t Overuse Dry Shampoo
Dry shampoo is a lifesaver, but using it too often can clog pores and suffocate hair follicles. Use sparingly between washes and follow up with clarifying treatments regularly.
4. Massage Your Scalp
A few minutes of scalp massage each day boosts blood circulation, delivering more oxygen and nutrients to your follicles. Bonus: It feels amazing after a long day.
5. Stay Hydrated and Nourished
Healthy hair starts from the inside out. Drink plenty of water, and make sure your diet includes nutrients like biotin, zinc, and omega-3 fatty acids for hair support.
