Medical & Dietary Treatments:
1. Increase Vitamin B12 & Iron Intake
- Foods: Eggs, dairy, leafy greens, fish, and fortified cereals.
- Deficiency in B12 can lead to premature greying.
2. Supplement with Biotin & Folic Acid
- Helps promote hair pigment production and overall hair health.
3. Reduce Stress
- Practice yoga, meditation, and breathing exercises to lower oxidative stress.
4. Use Natural Hair Dyes
- Avoid chemical dyes; try herbal dyes like henna and indigo for a natural color boost.
Dermatologist & Cosmetic Treatments for Grey Hair
1. Topical Melanin-Stimulating Treatments (Experimental)
- Some newer topical solutions are being developed to reactivate melanin production in hair follicles.
- Example: Melitane™ (a peptide that boosts melanin) – still under research and not widely available.
2. Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT)
- A non-invasive treatment that stimulates hair follicles and may delay or reduce greying.
- Often used in clinic-based laser caps or combs.
3. PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) for Scalp
- Involves injecting platelets from your blood into the scalp to rejuvenate hair follicles.
- May help improve pigment production and overall hair quality, though not a direct grey-reversing treatment.
4. Microneedling with Peptides or Serums
- Improves scalp health and can be paired with topical agents that may enhance pigmentation.
- Often done in clinics or recommended by dermatologists.
