Hair Thinning Isn't Only About Follicles — It's About the Scalp They Live In. Keravive Restores the Foundation.

EVIDENCE-BASED SCALP HEALTH PROTOCOL

Most thinning is not one problem. It is four biological drivers acting together at the follicle: chronic scalp inflammation that shortens the anagen growth phase, sebum and product buildup that clog the follicular opening, reduced local perfusion that starves the dermal papilla, and a weakened scalp barrier that lets inflammation persist. HydraFacial Keravive is delivered on the BeautyHealth HydraFacial MD platform with the dedicated Keravive scalp handpiece and addresses all four in a single forty–five minute session, so every downstream hair therapy has a healthier environment to work in.

THE THREE-STEP KERAVIVE DIFFERENCE

VORTEX EXFOLIATION

The HydraFacial vortex-fusion tip lifts sebum, dead skin, and product buildup from the scalp surface and follicular opening, restoring the oxygen and nutrient exchange the hair bulb needs.

PEPTIDE INFUSION

The Keravive tip delivers a proprietary complex of copper peptide GHK-Cu, zinc, arginine, niacinamide, and biotin under gentle positive pressure so ingredients reach the follicle rather than sit on the surface.

TAKE-HOME EXTENSION

A daily Keravive scalp spray extends the peptide exposure window between sessions from a single office day to a continuous month-long infusion.

What is Hydrafacial Keravive?

A Foundational Scalp Health Protocol

HydraFacial Keravive is a thirty to forty–five minute in–office protocol that uses the HydraFacial vortex–fusion tip to lift buildup and dead skin, then delivers a growth–supporting peptide complex directly to the follicular opening. It is not a hair regrowth drug and does not replace medical hair loss therapy. It is the foundational scalp preparation that makes every other hair therapy work better. Most patients complete three monthly sessions and continue with maintenance every two to three months.

TREATMENT APPLICATION

Each session begins with a gentle vortex cleanse to remove sebum, dead skin, and product buildup. A hydrating exfoliation pass follows. A peptide-rich infusion is then delivered across the treated scalp with the Keravive tip, ending with a take-home spray for daily follicular support.

EFFECTIVE FOR THINNING, INFLAMED, OR CONGESTED SCALPS

Keravive addresses seborrheic dermatitis, dandruff, oily scalp, dry and flaky scalp, itchy scalp, product-clogged follicles, telogen effluvium, early androgenetic thinning, and post-hair-transplant recovery. Safe for men and women of all Fitzpatrick skin types.

What Sets Hydrafacial Keravive Apart?

AN EVIDENCE-BASED SCALP HEALTH PROTOCOL

CLEANSES AND INFUSES IN ONE VISIT

Most scalp treatments either exfoliate or infuse. Keravive does both in the same forty-five minute session, and extends peptide activity between sessions with a take-home spray.

FDA-CLEARED DEVICE

Delivered on the same HydraFacial MD platform used in more than thirty million treatments worldwide, with a scalp-specific tip engineered by BeautyHealth.

PEPTIDE-RICH INFUSION

Copper peptide GHK-Cu, zinc, arginine, niacinamide, biotin, and additional growth factors reach the follicular opening at concentrations shampoos cannot achieve.

NO DOWNTIME, NO NEEDLES

Patients return to normal activity immediately. No shedding, no crusting, no lifestyle restriction.

STACKS WITH MEDICAL THERAPY

Designed to be layered with compounded topical minoxidil, oral finasteride or dutasteride, PRP, exosomes, TrichoLase, and HaiRestart for a fuller regrowth stack.

PHYSICIAN-PLANNED, PHYSICIAN-DELIVERED

Every Keravive protocol at Princeton Aesthetics is planned and performed by a physician, so the scalp exam, biologic add-ons, and cadence decisions happen in the same room.

How does Hydrafacial Keravive work?

Mechanism of Action

A healthy hair cycle depends on a clean, well–perfused follicular environment. HydraFacial Keravive sequences three mechanical and biological mechanisms in a single forty–five minute session and then holds the effect between visits with a take–home peptide spray.

STEP 1: VORTEX CLEANSE

The vortex-fusion tip lifts sebum, dead skin, and product residue from the scalp surface and follicular opening, breaking the seal that starves growth-phase follicles.

STEP 2: PEPTIDE INFUSION

The Keravive tip delivers the peptide complex under gentle positive pressure so ingredients reach the follicular opening rather than sit on the surface where shampoo would remove them.

STEP 3: TAKE-HOME EXTENSION

The daily Keravive spray reintroduces peptides between sessions, extending the follicular exposure window from a single office day to a continuous month-long infusion.

COPPER PEPTIDES (GHK-Cu)

One of the most studied signal peptides in dermatology, associated with dermal papilla cell proliferation and improved hair shaft caliber.

ZINC AND BIOTIN

Localized zinc and biotin address surface-level deficiencies at the follicle without waiting for oral supplements to reach the follicle through systemic circulation.

ARGININE AND NIACINAMIDE

Arginine supports nitric-oxide-mediated microcirculation and niacinamide restores scalp barrier function, reducing the inflammation that shortens the anagen phase.

MECHANICAL EXFOLIATION

Vortex exfoliation opens clogged follicles that starve the growth phase, restoring the oxygen and nutrient exchange the hair bulb needs.

INFLAMMATION REDUCTION

Chronic scalp inflammation shortens anagen and lengthens telogen. Keravive reduces surface inflammatory load so more follicles stay in growth phase.

The combined effect is a cleaner, less inflamed, better-perfused scalp continuously exposed to a peptide complex the follicle can actually use.

Who Is a Candidate for Hydrafacial Keravive?

HydraFacial Keravive is appropriate for men and women who want a healthier scalp environment as the foundation of any hair thickening plan. It is a supportive protocol, not a hair drug, and works layered with medical therapy or on its own for scalp health concerns. For active regrowth we also offer TrichoLase, PRP, and exosomes.

EARLY THINNING OR SHEDDING

For patients noticing early diffuse shedding, a widening part, or reduced density, Keravive is the foundation layer before or alongside medical therapy.

SEBORRHEIC DERMATITIS, DANDRUFF, ITCH

Chronic inflammation is one of the main hidden drivers of shedding. Keravive quiets the surface and restores barrier function without the sting of medicated shampoos.

OILY OR PRODUCT-CLOGGED SCALP

Buildup from styling products, dry shampoo, and excess sebum blocks the follicular opening. The vortex cleanse resets the surface in a single visit.

POST-HAIR-TRANSPLANT RECOVERY

Once cleared by the transplant surgeon, Keravive supports the recovering scalp with a gentle non-mechanical infusion that avoids traction on grafts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is HydraFacial Keravive safe for everyone?

Yes. Keravive uses the FDA–cleared HydraFacial MD platform and a peptide complex with no known systemic risks. It is safe for all skin types and hair textures, including chemically treated and color–treated hair. It is not recommended over open scalp wounds or active infection until cleared.

How many sessions will I need?

Most patients start with three monthly sessions to reset the scalp environment, followed by a maintenance session every two to three months. Patients using Keravive alongside PRP, exosomes, or TrichoLase may space it differently based on Dr. Jetty’s plan.

What can I expect during a Keravive session?

The session takes thirty to forty–five minutes. Expect a mild vibration and light suction on the scalp during the cleanse, and a cool feeling during the peptide infusion. Most patients find it relaxing and often fall asleep during the treatment.

Is there any downtime after Keravive?

None. You can wash your hair the next day, style as usual, and return immediately to workouts, sun exposure, and normal activity. Do not wash the scalp the same evening so the take–home spray can begin its work.

Are there any side effects?

Side effects are rare. Some patients notice transient redness, mild scalp tingling, or a slight sensation of tightness for the first few hours. There is no shedding, crusting, or visible mark on the scalp.

Does Keravive regrow hair by itself?

Keravive is a scalp health protocol, not a regrowth drug. On its own it improves scalp comfort, reduces flake and itch, and often improves the look and feel of existing hair. For active regrowth of thinning areas, we pair Keravive with medical therapy, PRP or exosomes, and TrichoLase.

When will I see visible results from Keravive?

Most patients notice a lighter, cleaner–feeling scalp within a day, and reduced itch and flake within one to two weeks. Improvements in hair look and feel typically appear after the first monthly session and continue building through the three–session series. When Keravive is paired with medical therapy, biologics, or laser, visible changes in density track the timeline of the medical protocol.

Can I combine Keravive with PRP, exosomes, or TrichoLase?

Yes, and the combination is often stronger than any single modality. Keravive clears and primes the scalp so the biologic or laser therapy that follows reaches better–perfused, less inflamed follicles. Dr. Jetty designs the sequence and spacing personally at your consultation.
