Biotin

About the biotin

Biotin is an essential vitamin—meaning that your body needs this micronutrient to function properly. Biotin is a form of vitamin B that helps your body turn the food you eat (protein, carbohydrates, and fat) into energy. It promotes good skin health and helps regulate your LDL (bad) cholesterol and blood sugar. Biotin is also necessary to produce keratin, a protein that promotes strong nails and hair.

Biotin is a water-soluble vitamin. That means that it is not stored in our bodies for long. Our body does not naturally produce it, either.

The most common symptoms of biotin deficiency include

thin, brittle hair
hair loss,
weak, flaky nail
dry or scaly skin
red rashes on the skin, especially the face
insomnia or difficulty sleeping
dry eyes
depression and fatigue
difficulties with maintaining healthy body weight.

Has your hair become fine and dry? Have you noticed shedding? Let’s try a more functional approach instead of just treating the symptoms of hair loss.

The condition of our hair reflects our inner health. Brittle, thinning hair can all be signs of a Biotin deficiency. Biotin is readily available in food, so those with a deficiency may well have a genetic issue preventing full absorption. Repair and strengthen your hair from the inside out with our biotin injection.

Biotin injections will get to the root of the problem by addressing deficiencies in order to restore your hair health and improve your general wellbeing. However, if you are experiencing a period of continual hair loss, we recommend combining this injection with hair growth treatments such as Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) injections and scalp micro-needling.

How does biotin promote hair growth?

Biotin strengthens keratin, the protein that makes up our hair, skin and nails.

We need it not just for new hair growth, but also to keep our existing hair thick and shiny. Biotin also increases the elasticity of our hair, which minimises breakage and split ends. When injected, biotin helps to gradually replace dry, damaged hair with healthy, happy hair.
