- What is a Scalproller?
-
Nanogen's Scalproller is a treatment previously only available through Trichologists or Dermatologists. The 0.3mm & 0.5mm models have now made this treatment available for use at home. It is a cylindrical barrel with precision engineered titanium microneedles which penetrate the top layers of skin without causing damage or bleeding. This accurate and non-intrusive penetration allows much higher absorption of scalp treatments like Hair Growth Factor Serum.
- How will Nanogen's Scalproller Work?
-
As you roll the roller over your scalp it penetrates the upper layers of skin. By opening the skin in this way you dramatically increase the penetration of any topical growth product.
- Can I use the Scalproller more than once a day?
-
At first, the Scalproller is designed to be used once daily, and is far more intensive than any skin roller, using more than once daily may be possible after time, depending on the individual. If used more than once a day initially the Scalproller may cause more irritation than is aimed for, and even cause damage.
- When using the Scalproller do I roll over each part of my scalp only once?
-
At first, use a single motion once over each area of scalp, rolling gently forward from the crown. This produces a controlled amount of irritation and avoids tangling the roller in longer hair. After time, individual users may prefer to roll in multiple directions.
- Which needle length Scalproller should I use?
-
Nanogen's genuine Scalproller is available in 2 versions for home use. The 0.3mm version is recommended for patients with very thin hair or pain sensitive skin. A 0.5mm home version is available to ensure penetration even with thicker hair.
- Will the Scalproller mark my scalp, cause redness, or cause pain or bleeding?
-
When used as directed, the Scalproller will only cause small or no marks, and the marks will fade in under a minute. Scalproller treatment may cause a flush to your scalp that will fade in a few hours, but no long-lasting redness. The Scalprollers made available for home use have sharp, durable titanium needles that do not cause appreciable pain or bleeding.
- Do I use Nanogen's Scalproller over my whole scalp, or just the thinning area?
-
As the main aim of the Scalproller is to help topical hair loss treatments penetrate, you should use the Scalproller everywhere that you will apply your topical treatment. However using it elsewhere will certainly not do any harm.
- Is this the same as other Skin or Derma Rollers?
-
No. Other skin rollers have different needle lengths, and are designed to be used for different purposes. Some claim they will work on Hair Loss, but Nanogen's Scalproller is the first specially designed for use on the scalp and for use every day. Skin rollers aren't made from titanium needles, so only the Scalproller can be reused intensively for 3-6 months.
- Can I use a topical solution with the Scalproller?
-
Yes, the Scalproller is designed to be used with topical treatments to increase their absorption, you should still follow the guidelines on your topical treatments for their application.
- When do I use a topical solution with the Scalproller?
-
You use the Scalproller first, to increase the penetration of the treatment, then the topical treatment. You should still follow the guidelines on your topical treatments for their application.
I use more than one topical solution, which should I apply first?
The same as you did before you used the Scalproller, you should still follow the guidelines on your topical treatments for their application.
- How long will the Scalproller last for?
-
Even when used daily, due to its unique durable titanium microneedles Nanogen's Scalproller can last from 3-6 months.
- How do I know when to replace my Scalproller?
-
There will be no visible signs of the sharpness deteriorating. After 3 months, if you begin to notice any increase in pain or inflammation while using the Scalproller, this is a sign the needles are becoming less sharp, and you need to replace it. After 6 months you should replace your Scalproller, even if you have not noticed a difference in pain or inflammation.
- Is Nanogen's Scalproller Guaranteed to Work?
-
Like all Nanogen products, the Scalproller is manufactured and quality controlled to exacting standards. Unfortunately, due to regulations on handling of biological material, we cannot accept returns of a used Scalproller and so cannot refund the product.
- Can I apply Growth Factor Hydrator more than once per day?
-
Yes, you can. You can apply Hair Growth Factor Hydrator at any time that your scalp feels uncomfortable. However, Hair Growth Factor Scalp Hydrator is primarily to be used after an application of alcohol or propylene glycol based treatments, when your scalp is feeling irritated.
- Should I wash my hair before using Hair Growth Factor Scalp Hydrator?
-
You do not need freshly washed hair to apply Hair Growth Factor Scalp Hydrator, it is designed to follow an application of alcohol or propylene glycol based treatments.
- Do I need to wash Hair Growth Factor Scalp Hydrator out of my hair, will it make my hair look greasy or feel sticky?
-
Hair Growth Factor Scalp Hydrator will not weigh your hair down or make it look or feel greasy. Hair Growth Factor Scalp Hydrator hydrates and soothes scalp, but also is a lightweight hair conditioner so alleviates dry and straw-like hair. Due to its lightweight formulation you can leave Hair Growth Factor Scalp Hydrator in your hair until you would normally wash it.
- How long will the effect last for after one application?
-
The cooling and calming effect of Hair Growth Factor Scalp Hydrator will last for several hours after application. However, the hydrating effect will help until the next application of alcohol or propylene glycol based treatments.
- Will using Growth Factor Scalp Hydrator affect the camouflage that I am using to disguise my hair loss?
-

- What kind of results should I expect from Hair Growth Factor Scalp Hydrator?
-
Your scalp should feel more comfortable, cool hydrated and refreshed after an application of Hair Growth Factor Scalp Hydrator. Hair Growth Factor Scalp Hydrator will also condition hair and alleviate dry hair caused by alcohol or propylene glycol based treatments.
- How long before I see results?
-
You should feel the cooling and moisturising effect of Growth Factor Scalp Hydrator immediately after the first application.
- If I stop using alcohol or propylene glycol based treatments can I still use Hair Growth Factor Scalp Hydrator?
-
