There is a type of mesotherapy that can be used for hair regrowth.  Mesotherapy is a process of  giving tiny, repetitive, superficial injections of different substances for different therapeutic goals.  One of these goals is to regrow hair.  This can be done in women and men.  Mesotherapy is considered mainstream medicine in places like France, where is it taught in medical school. Hair mesotherapy contains several medicines that antagonize testosterone and promote hair growth.  If the area of concern has been thinned or bald for more than seven years, positive results are not likely. Be sure your doctor of choice has been trained specifically in mesotherapy before you commit to treatment.
