Nanogen’s Scalproller is the first specially designed roller to help treat thinning hair. With unique titanium needles to precisely penetrate the skin with minimal irritation. Scalproller pre-treatment dramatically improves the effects of any topical treatment.
- Safe for men & women
- Dramatically increases absorption of growth treatments
- Heals donor scars
- Activates Platelet Rich Plasma therapy
- Encourages scalp repair & hair growth mechanisms
- No appreciable pain or injury

Most dermatological rollers are designed for use on facial skin and are
made from stainless steel, which can blunt easily with daily use on the
tougher scalp skin.
Nanogen’s Scalproller microneedles are engineered in Sweden from
pure Titanium giving a finer and much more durable edge, eliminating
excess irritation caused by ordinary steel needles.
Furthermore each individual Scalproller microneedle is Gold plated to maintain sterility.

Scalproller pre-treatment has been shown to increase absorption of
topical treatments such as Minoxidil by 5 times or more.
With Scalproller pre-treatment, lower 2% concentrations of Minoxidil
solution may give concentrations in the scalp higher than when using 5%
solutions on untreated skin. Similarly, 5% solutions could produce
higher concentrations in the scalp than 12.5% solutions or suspensions
used on untreated skin.
Frontal scalp areas are notoriously difficult to treat topically, most
probably due to lack of absorption. Therefore Minoxidil is only really
effective in treating vertex hair loss. Using Nanogen’s Scalproller can
dramatically increase absorption of Minoxidil in these regions, opening
up new potential areas for topical treatments to act on.

Hair transplant surgery commonly leaves scars in the donor region;
Nanogen’s Scalproller can fade and reduce the appearance of these scars
by breaking up scar tissue structures and formations. Plus there is
evidence in animal models to show that new hair may grow to conceal the
donor area after Scalproller treatment.
Platelet Rich Plasma or PRP therapy is a cutting edge development in
hair loss treatment. PRP has been shown to produce thicker transplanted
hair growth, and possibly even thicken non-transplanted hair.
In PRP therapy, the platelet and growth factor rich fraction of the
patient’s blood is re-injected into them, and then growth is activated
by repeated needle insertion. Single needle insertion is irregular,
time consuming and often painful. Scalproller treatment produces much
more reliable, regular needle insertions in less time, and with less
pain.
The latest research by Intercytex, performed with Dr. Bessam Farjo as
principal investigator, has shown that patients receiving superficial
injections grow new hair, which may solely be a result of the
controlled skin wounding itself.
This surprising result is correlated by the pioneering work
published by Dr. George Cotsarelis of Pennsylvania University, who
found that stimulation of the Wnt protein by wounding leads to hair
regeneration. Wounding by microneedles would potentially start this Wnt
protein mediated growth stimulation, and prevent synthesis of TGF-ß2, a
protein known to induce hair loss.
Scalproller treatment increases Minoxidil efficacy and may independently promote new hair growth. |
