Medical-Grade Hair Restoration Products at Criswell & Criswell Plastic Surgery & Medspa 

Our board-certified plastic surgeons, Dr. Kara Kane Criswell and Dr. Bryan Criswell, apply the same level of medical judgment to hair restoration products that they bring to surgical and in-office treatments. Every product is reviewed for safety, formulation integrity, and clinical relevance, not consumer popularity.

Many modern hair restoration systems incorporate exosome-based regenerative technology, which uses cell-free regenerative therapy derived from stem cells to deliver biologic signaling molecules that support scalp health and follicle activity. Products are recommended selectively and integrated into individualized plans designed to support hair health realistically and responsibly.

A consultation allows our team to determine whether product-based support is appropriate and how it fits into your overall care.

What Are Hair Restoration Products?

Hair restoration products include medical-grade topical formulations, nutritional supplements, and biologically active scalp systems designed to support the hair growth cycle and the health of the scalp.

Many modern scalp systems now incorporate exosomes, microscopic extracellular vesicles that act as cell-free regenerative messengers derived from stem cells. These biologic signals help regulate cellular communication within the scalp and may support processes involved in tissue repair and follicle function.

These products are most often used to:

  • Address early thinning
  • Improve hair strength and quality
  • Support scalp health and circulation
  • Maintain results achieved through in-office hair restoration treatments

Benefits of Hair Restoration Products

When incorporated thoughtfully under physician guidance, hair restoration products can provide targeted support that differs meaningfully from over-the-counter options:

  • Supports hair density and strength using clinically selected formulations
  • Helps maintain a healthier scalp environment that supports growth cycles
  • Improves hair durability and reduces breakage over time
  • Extends and supports results from in-office hair restoration treatments
  • Offers medically guided, non-surgical support for early or ongoing hair concerns

Products containing exosomes, cell-free regenerative particles derived from stem cells, may also help support cellular signaling in the scalp environment.

Our Hair Restoration Products

Each product we offer is selected for its specific role within a broader hair restoration strategy. Recommendations are tailored to each individual based on diagnosis, treatment history, and long-term goals.

NuCil Hair, Lash, and Brow

NuCil is a physician-dispensed topical serum designed to support the appearance of fuller, healthier hair, lashes, and brows. It is often recommended for patients seeking a non-prescription, professionally guided topical option to support hair quality.

Purpose: Supports the appearance of improved hair density and follicle-level strength.

Formulation focus: Peptide-based technology formulated to support hair quality and thickness.
Some formulations used in advanced scalp care may incorporate exosome-based regenerative factors, cell-free signaling molecules derived from stem cells that help support cellular communication within tissues.

Treatment role: Often used for early thinning or as supportive care alongside other hair restoration treatments.

Clinical oversight: Dispensed and monitored within a medical practice to ensure appropriate expectations and use.

Viviscal Pro

Viviscal Pro is a professional-strength hair support system that includes oral tablets, shampoo, and conditioner. It is formulated to nourish hair follicles from within, supporting healthier hair growth and reducing breakage.

Key ingredients: AminoMar™ marine complex, biotin, vitamin C, zinc, iron, silicon, apple extract with Procyanidin B-2, and the amino acids L-cysteine and L-methionine.

Formulation strength: Higher concentrations of active ingredients compared to standard over-the-counter Viviscal products.

  • How it works: Supports the hair growth cycle, strengthens existing hair, and helps reduce thinning and breakage. While oral nutritional systems support hair health from within, topical regenerative technologies, such as exosomes, a cell-free regenerative therapy derived from stem cells, are increasingly used in modern scalp care to support cellular signaling within hair follicles.
  • Usage considerations: Commonly taken as two tablets daily with food for three to six months, followed by maintenance as advised.
  • Important notes: Not appropriate for individuals with fish or shellfish allergies, pregnant or nursing patients, or those under 18.

Exo-E Derive

Exo-E Derive is a plant-based exosome scalp and hair care system available as shampoo, conditioner, and hair serum, with optional in-office application using ultrasound technology to enhance topical penetration.

Exosomes are cell-free regenerative particles derived from stem cells that act as biological messengers between cells, helping regulate processes involved in tissue repair, inflammation control, and cellular communication.

Technology type: Plant-derived exosomes selected for compatibility and safety.

Mechanism of action: Supports cellular signaling pathways associated with scalp health and follicle vitality.

Three-step protocol:

  • D|TOX prepares and hydrates the scalp
  • EXO|E delivers concentrated regenerative signaling molecules
  • RE|PAIR supports continued scalp health through at-home maintenance

Formulation components: Exosomes, liposomes, peptides, growth factors, anti-inflammatory factors, VEGF, and amino acids.

Treatment role: Used to support scalp health and optimize hair-focused treatment plans rather than as a standalone solution.

Am I a Good Candidate for Hair Restoration Products?

Hair restoration products may be appropriate for men and women experiencing:

  • Early thinning
  • Increased shedding
  • Reduced hair density
  • Changes in hair strength or quality

Products that incorporate regenerative technologies such as exosomes may help support scalp health and follicle activity, particularly when used alongside in-office treatments like microneedling or PRP.

A consultation is necessary to determine suitability, particularly for individuals with underlying medical conditions, allergies, or hormonally driven hair loss.

Frequently Asked Questions Hair Restoration Products

Can hair restoration products fully replace in-office treatments?

Hair restoration products are designed to support hair health and maintenance. More advanced hair loss often requires in-office treatments for meaningful improvement.

When should I expect to notice changes?

Most patients notice changes in hair quality or shedding patterns after several months of consistent use, with gradual improvement over time.

Is it common to use more than one product at a time?

Yes. Products are often combined to support hair health from multiple angles under physician supervision.

Do these products require a prescription?

Some products are physician-dispensed but do not require a prescription. Recommendations are made during consultation.

Are there medical reasons someone may not be eligible?

Yes. Certain products may not be appropriate for individuals with specific allergies, those who are pregnant or nursing, or patients under the age of 18.

Can these products help with hormonally driven hair loss?

They may provide supportive benefits, but hormonally driven hair loss typically requires a more comprehensive treatment strategy.

Are hair restoration products appropriate for both men and women?

Yes. Recommendations are tailored to the individual regardless of gender.

Will results last if I stop using the products?

Continued use is often recommended to help maintain results, as hair health is influenced by ongoing biological factors.

Is a consultation required before purchasing products?
