FDA approved plant based therapy to curb hair fall; proven results in 1 Lakh+ patients across India

KolkataMale and female pattern hair loss, also known as androgenic alopecia, continues to remain a prominent area of concern, especially in the age groups of 25 and onwards. Clinicians and cosmetologists have been investigating modalities for a long time now. While nonsurgical hair regrowth treatments like over-the-counter topical minoxidil, prescription oral finasteride, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections and light & laser therapy treatments help reduce hair fall when used in combination, they do leave adverse side effects. Meet QR 678 - a proprietary, first in class hair fall & hair regrowth therapy, which has revolutionized the treatment of hair fall in alopecia.This formulation has been named QR678 inspired by the new generation ubiquitous presence of “Quick Response“ QR code. 678 in Morse Code signifies “there is no answer”. This formulation has been named QR678™ to signify a “Quick Response to a disease which earlier had no answer”.

 

QR 678® was invented by Dr. Debraj Shome and Dr. Rinky Kapoor, celebrity cosmetic surgeons from India and co -founders of The Esthetic Clinic which are a chain of top class dermatology & plastic surgery centers located in various cities in India. They observed that male pattern baldness, known as Androgenic Alopecia characterised by progressive hair loss in men growing at a rampant rate of 58% in males aged 30-50 years which initiated their urge to research and find a solution to this cosmetic issue leading to the invention of QR 678®. The therapy curbs hair fall and increases the thickness, the number and density of existing hair follicles, offering greater hair coverage to the ones with alopecia. The formulation has received patents in the United States and in India. They ran comparative trials between the QR678 and PRP treatments with QR678 treatment causing almost 300% better results than the PRP.

 

For patients struggling from hair loss, mesotherapy is carried out using the QR 678 formulation, that are branded development elements, used by little practically pain-free administration into the scalp. Growth of hair calls for 5-8 sessions dispersed 2-3 weeks aside each. Typically 1 ml of solution is inserted per sitting, each sitting requires 15 mins, no medical center stay is needed, and every session costs approximately Rs. 7000. The comparative trials between the QR678 and PRP treatments have demonstrated that the therapy causes almost 300% better results than the PRP. The therapy being non-invasive, safe and pain free plant based formulation, also increases the uptake of the traditional hair transplant procedure by more than 50 %, as it is locally administered over the scalp skin by mesotherapy.

 

Dr. Debraj Shome, Clinical Scientist & Leader, R&D Team, QR678® and Director at Esthetic Clinics said “The hair-regrowth treatments available currently have many limitations; they cannot revive hair beyond a certain stage. QR678® is a process where growth factors are injected in the hair follicles, which not only arrests hair fall but also stimulates hair growth. QR678® is a non-surgical, pain-free and non-invasive procedure for the hair regrowth treatment which has shown very good results in over 100,000 + patients.”

QR678 is approved by the FDA as a minimally invasive hair regrowth treatment. As compared to PRP treatments, QR678 :

·        Is much more comfortable and predicate then the PRP

·        The formulation is now being used in ten plus countries and is scheduled for an European Union and United Kingdom launch in September 2021.

A true ‘Made in India’ product that has gained an international reputation in producing most effective, efficient results faster than any other surgical and non-surgical hair regrowth treatment known today. The therapy is utilized in top skin and hair clinics with key opinion leaders in 10+ countries. Even though now the QR 678 ® hair growth therapy will be available through a chain of franchisees and distributors, The Esthetic Clinics team remains the inventor and research and development team for the therapy.

While 2020 was a slack year as the aesthetics industry itself contracted sharply and elective treatments decreased in lieu of Covid, 2021 saw a boost for QR 678. In the EU and UK markets, the launch is scheduled for the 1st of September, after which the majority of the hair clinics in these markets will have access to the therapy.
