ABOUT HYDRAFACIAL® KERAVIVE™
HydraFacial Keravive™ is a relaxing, non-invasive scalp treatment that deeply cleanses, exfoliates, and hydrates the scalp to promote stronger, thicker, and healthier hair growth.
The treatment uses HydraFacial vortex technology to remove impurities and buildup while infusing the scalp with Keravive Peptide Complex Solution, rich in growth factors and proteins that nourish the follicles and improve scalp circulation.
Keravive can benefit individuals experiencing:
- Dry or flaky scalp
- Thinning or brittle hair
- Scalp buildup from oils or styling products
- Poor scalp health due to stress, hormonal changes, or environmental damage
It can also enhance the results of PRP/PRF hair restoration and other growth-stimulating treatments when used in combination.
PRE-TREATMENT CARE
1–2 Days Before Treatment
- Arrive with a clean, dry scalp on the day of your appointment.
- Shampoo the night before or the morning of using a mild, non-medicated cleanser.
- Do not apply conditioner, oils, styling products, or dry shampoo before treatment.
- Avoid heavy sun exposure or tanning for at least 48 hours prior to your treatment.
- Avoid alcohol and caffeine for 24 hours prior — they may increase scalp sensitivity.
- Hydrate well by drinking plenty of water before and after your session.
- If you are receiving PRP/PRF hair restoration or another scalp procedure in the same week, consult your provider about appropriate scheduling — Keravive is often performed 1–2 weeks before or after other treatments.
- Avoid hair coloring, chemical treatments, or keratin smoothing for 3–5 days before your session.
Day of Appointment
- Arrive with dry, product-free hair and scalp.
- Wear comfortable clothing — the treatment is performed while you recline comfortably.
- Let your provider know if you:
- Have a sensitive scalp or any open sores, infections, or psoriasis in the area.
- Have had recent scalp injections or surgical procedures.
- Are using prescription scalp medications (e.g., topical minoxidil, steroids).
POST-TREATMENT CARE
Immediately After Treatment
- Do not wash or wet your hair/scalp for at least 8–12 hours post-treatment.
- This allows the Keravive Peptide Complex to fully absorb into the scalp.
- Avoid applying any styling products, oils, or sprays for the first 12 hours.
- The scalp may feel hydrated, refreshed, or slightly tingly — this is normal.
- Mild flaking can occur as impurities and dead skin continue to shed.
First 24 Hours
- Avoid heat exposure (saunas, steam rooms, or strenuous exercise) to prevent irritation.
- Avoid chemical treatments, hair dyes, or tight hairstyles that pull on the scalp.
- You may notice increased hair softness or volume due to improved scalp hydration.
- Avoid scratching, picking, or rubbing the scalp.
At-Home Keravive Spray Use (Days 1–30)
- You will receive a HydraFacial Keravive Peptide Spray for home use to maintain results.
- Begin using the spray the day after your in-office treatment.
- Apply 1–2 pumps per section to the scalp (focusing on thinning areas).
- Massage gently with fingertips for 30–60 seconds.
- Use once daily, preferably at bedtime, and do not rinse.
- Continue using the spray until your next in-office treatment to support follicle health and hydration.
After 2–3 Days
- You may resume using your regular haircare and scalp products.
- You can return to your normal styling and exercise routine.
- Continue avoiding harsh or medicated shampoos unless prescribed.
- Maintain good hydration and balanced nutrition to support hair growth.
RESULTS AND TREATMENT PLAN
- Most clients notice a cleaner, lighter, and healthier scalp immediately after the first session.
- Over several weeks, you may observe:
- Reduction in scalp flaking and oiliness
- Fuller, shinier hair
- Improved comfort and scalp circulation
- For best results:
- A series of 3 monthly treatments is recommended initially.
- Maintenance treatments every 3–4 months help sustain long-term scalp and hair health.
- When combined with PRP or PRF hair restoration, results are often amplified due to improved follicular absorption and stimulation.
