Ozempic / GLP-1 Hair Loss Treatment in St. Paul, MN / Roseville, MN
Restore Your Hair After Ozempic Weight Loss
Losing hair while taking Ozempic, Wegovy, or another GLP-1 medication? You’re not alone. Hair thinning and shedding are common side effects of rapid weight loss.
Christina Clinic is a med spa located in Roseville, Minnesota. We offer hair restoration treatments for patients experiencing GLP-1 related hair loss. Our options include PRP therapy, growth serums, and medical-grade hair care products
Why Does GLP-1 Cause Hair Loss?
Hair loss from GLP-1 medications is typically caused by rapid weight loss, not the drug itself. This type of hair loss is called telogen effluvium.
Telogen effluvium is a temporary hair shedding condition. Telogen effluvium is triggered by physical stress on the body. Rapid weight loss puts stress on your system. This stress pushes hair follicles into a resting phase earlier than normal.
When hair follicles enter the resting phase, they stop growing. About three months later, those hairs fall out. This is why many patients notice hair loss several weeks or months after starting GLP-1 medications.
Other factors that contribute to GLP-1 hair loss include:
- Reduced calorie intake
- Nutritional deficiencies from eating less food
- Protein deficiency
- Changes in hormone levels
- Stress from major body changes
The good news: telogen effluvium is usually temporary. Hair often regrows once your weight stabilizes and nutrition improves. Treatments can help speed recovery and support healthier regrowth.
Hair Loss Treatments at Christina Clinic
Christina Clinic offers three treatment options for GLP-1 related hair loss. Each option works differently to support hair growth.
PRP Injection Therapy
PRP stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma. PRP is a non-surgical treatment for hair loss. PRP therapy uses your body’s own growth factors to restore hair.
How PRP Works
PRP is derived from your own blood. During treatment, we draw a small amount of blood. The blood is placed in a centrifuge. A centrifuge is a machine that spins rapidly to separate blood components. This process concentrates the platelets and growth factors.
The concentrated PRP is then injected into your scalp. PRP injections stimulate hair follicles. PRP improves blood supply to the scalp. Better blood flow delivers more nutrients to hair follicles. This promotes thicker, stronger hair growth.
PRP Treatment Schedule
A complete PRP treatment requires three injection sessions. Sessions are spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Most patients see results within 3 to 6 months after completing the series.
PRP therapy is safe for both men and women. PRP uses your own blood, so allergic reactions are rare.
Plated Hair Serum
Christina Clinic carries Plated Hair Serum for at-home hair restoration. Plated Hair Serum is a topical treatment that stimulates hair growth.
Plated Hair Serum contains exosomes. Exosomes are tiny particles that carry growth signals between cells. Exosomes are derived from stem cells. When applied to the scalp, exosomes communicate with hair follicles. This signals follicles to enter the growth phase.
Plated Hair Serum is applied directly to the scalp. The serum absorbs quickly and works at the follicle level. Plated Hair Serum can be used alone or combined with PRP therapy for enhanced results.
Zenagen Resolve Shampoo and Conditioner
Christina Clinic offers Zenagen Resolve hair care products. Zenagen Resolve is a medical-grade shampoo and conditioner system. Zenagen Resolve is formulated to stimulate hair growth.
Zenagen Resolve is available in formulas for both men and women. The men’s formula and women’s formula address different hormonal factors that affect hair loss.
Zenagen Resolve works by:
- Blocking DHT at the follicle level (DHT is a hormone that causes hair miniaturization)
- Nourishing the scalp with nutrients
- Creating an optimal environment for hair growth
- Strengthening existing hair strands
Zenagen Resolve is used as part of your daily hair care routine. Consistent use over several months produces the best results.
Combining Treatments for Best Results
Christina Clinic often recommends combining treatments for maximum hair restoration. A typical combination includes:
- PRP injection series to stimulate follicles from within
- Plated Hair Serum for daily topical support
- Zenagen Resolve shampoo and conditioner for ongoing maintenance
This multi-approach strategy addresses hair loss from multiple angles. Your provider will create a personalized plan based on your hair loss severity and goals.
Tips to Reduce Hair Loss During GLP-1 Treatment
While on GLP-1 medications, these habits can help minimize hair loss:
- Eat enough protein daily (aim for 60-100 grams)
- Take a multivitamin with biotin, iron, and zinc
- Avoid crash dieting or extreme calorie restriction
- Stay hydrated
- Be gentle with your hair (avoid tight styles and heat damage)
- Manage stress through exercise or relaxation techniques
Proper nutrition is essential for hair health. Hair follicles need protein, vitamins, and minerals to produce healthy strands.

Christina Clinic provides aesthetic hair restoration treatments. Christina Clinic does not prescribe GLP-1 medications.
Christina Clinic does not treat underlying medical causes of hair loss such as thyroid disorders or autoimmune conditions. If you have concerns about medical hair loss, consult your primary care doctor or a dermatologist.
