Tricopat and Supporting Scalp Renewal: A Modern Dermatological Approach

Hair loss is a common dermatological concern that can affect the quality of life for both women and men. Progressive thinning of the hair shafts, reduced density, or localized sparsity may indicate a decline in follicular functionality. For this reason, individuals experiencing hair loss may be advised—after a dermatological evaluation to consider modern approaches designed to support scalp health and strengthen the hair follicles.

Tricopat is one of the contemporary methods used in this context, helping to activate hair follicles and support their function.

What Is Tricopat?

Tricopat is a non-invasive procedure in which low-intensity electrical currents are delivered to the scalp through special contact tips. Along with the current, essential peptides, vitamins, growth factors, exosomes, or medications such as minoxidil or dutasteride can be transported into the follicle.

The goal is to stimulate the hair root and positively support the hair growth cycle.

This method may help create a more favorable environment for hair growth—particularly in follicles that remain viable but have reduced activity. As a result, some individuals may experience thickening of existing hair shafts and support for new hair formation.

In individuals who present to clinics in Nişantaşı, Tricopat has been observed to help revitalize the scalp, especially in the early stages of hair thinning. This supportive effect is more noticeable in areas where follicles are weakened but still responsive, rather than completely closed follicles.

The Scientific Basis of Hair Follicle Activation

Even when hair loss progresses, follicles do not entirely disappear. In many cases, some roots remain in a resting phase or show reduced metabolic activity. This leads to gradual thinning and decreased density.

The low-intensity current used in Tricopat may help:

increase microcirculation,

improve oxygenation and nutrient delivery,

revitalize cellular metabolism,

and create a more favorable physiological environment for transition into the growth phase.

Through these mechanisms, some individuals may experience strengthening of existing hair and support for new growth from follicles that are still present.

For this supportive effect to occur, the follicle must not be completely lost.

The Procedure

Tricopat is performed under sterile clinical conditions following a personalized protocol tailored to the patient’s needs.

Each session generally lasts about 20–30 minutes. The absence of needles makes the procedure more comfortable for many individuals.

The number of sessions is determined after assessing the type of hair loss and overall scalp condition. Among individuals living in Istanbul who experience significant shedding, regularly scheduled protocols may offer more effective support.

Who May Benefit From This Approach?

Tricopat is often preferred in situations such as:

Thinning of hair shafts and reduced density

Seasonal or stress-related shedding periods

Postpartum hair shedding (after dermatological evaluation)

Early to mid-stage androgenetic hair loss

Presence of follicles that remain alive but require stimulation

The application may show limited benefit in areas that appear shiny and fully closed; however, it may help support renewed growth in regions where dormant follicles still exist.

Post-Procedure Period

After the procedure, individuals can easily return to their daily activities.

Some may experience mild redness, warmth, or sensitivity in the first few hours, which typically subsides quickly.

With regular sessions, individuals may observe:

a healthier and stronger hair structure,

a reduction in shedding speed,

a more favorable scalp environment for growth,

and support for new hair formation from follicles in the resting phase.

Due to the physiology of the hair growth cycle, newly emerging strands become noticeable over the course of several months.

Factors That Influence Cost

Tricopat pricing may vary depending on the technology used, the scope of application, the number of sessions, and the clinical equipment.

Providing a fixed price is not appropriate; an individualized plan is determined after consultation.

Tricopat offers a modern, comfortable, and follicle-focused approach to supporting individuals experiencing hair loss.

While helping to improve hair quality, it may also support new growth in follicles that remain responsive.

Personalized evaluation and proper protocol planning are essential components of this approach.
