Dr. Munir Launches CALECIM Hair Restore treatment to address hair loss resulting from Ozempic use

Dr. Munir has introduced the specialised CALECIM Hair Restoration treatment targeting the "acute hair shedding" caused by the increasingly popular weight-loss drug, Ozempic. 

Leading hair surgeon Dr. Munir said one of the lesser-known side-effects of the drug, which has been popular for its efficacy in helping users to lose weight, is hair loss and scalp inflammation, which can cause significant issues.

Dr. Munir says the issue arises from Ozempic disrupting the body's natural hormone balance, redirecting resources away from hair follicles and leading them to a state of rest. A reduced calorie intake can also lead to deficiencies in key vitamins and minerals essential for healthy hair.

This condition is known as telogen effluvium and is caused by stress or sudden changes in your body and can lead to significant or permanent hair loss if not treated promptly.

Dr. Munir has said that he can improve this type of "shock shedding" with the CALECIM® Professional Advanced Hair System, which intelligently harnesses the power of dynamic stem-cell signalling technology. The phenomenon occurs when stem cell extracts are successfully able to send "cellular messages" to the hair follicle cells, stimulating growth and creating a healthier environment for thicker, glossier, and more resilient hair to grow.

"I am a fan of CALECIM® as the product contains growth factors, which are able to trigger your own stem cells within the hair follicle. The cellular messaging is taken from umbilical stem cell extract, the lead ingredient in CALECIM®, which sends signals to your own stem cells to decrease anti-inflammatory cues and accelerate follicle cell growth. This allows me to truly offer transformative results for my clients which can promote new hair growth and minimise scalp inflammation” Dr Munir Somji said.

The treatment can be administered at Dr. Munir's DrMediSpa clinics in London and Essex, where patients will receive a detailed assessment followed by a treatment and a prescription of CALECIM® products to use at home for six weeks. Alternatively the treatment serum can be purchased for £315 and used at home. The treatment should be used twice a week for six weeks.

CALECIM® Professional was created by Singapore-based Biotech company CellResearch and channels 18-years of stem-cell research and technology into creating this ground-breaking formula, CALECIM® Professional.
