What are intradermal injections?
Intradermal injections are a delivery method where substances such as medications, growth factors, or PRP are injected directly into the dermal layer of the skin.
They are often used in dermatology and hair loss treatment to target the scalp more precisely and improve the efficacy of topically challenging substances.
Red light therapy may complement intradermal treatments by enhancing circulation, reducing inflammation, and promoting the uptake of injected compounds at the follicular level.
