Why Use The Titanium Scalp Roller from Nanogen?
1 - Increase The Absorption Rate of Your Hair Loss Treatment
If you use ANY topically applied treatment like Minoxidil, Nanogaine, Procerin XT, Thymuskin, Revivogen, Spectral etc - then the Titanium Scalp Roller will increase the effectiveness of the treatment and the absorption.
Using the Nanogen Scalp Roller has been shown to increase absorption by as much as 5 times or more!
With Scalproller pre-treatment, lower 2% concentrations of Minoxidil solution may give concentrations in the scalp higher than when using 5% solutions on untreated skin. Similarly, 5% solutions could produce higher concentrations in the scalp than 12.5% solutions or suspensions used on untreated skin.
Frontal scalp areas are notoriously difficult to treat topically, most probably due to lack of absorption. Therefore Minoxidil is only really effective in treating vertex hair loss. Using Nanogen’s Scalproller can dramatically increase absorption of Minoxidil in these regions, opening up new potential areas for topical treatments to act on.

2 - Heals Donor Scars
Hair transplant surgery commonly leaves scars in the donor region; Nanogen’s Scalproller can fade and reduce the appearance of these scars by breaking up scar tissue structures and formations. Plus there is evidence in animal models to show that new hair may grow to conceal the donor area after Scalproller treatment.
3 - Activates PRP Treatment
Platelet Rich Plasma or PRP therapy is a cutting edge development in hair loss treatment. PRP has been shown to produce thicker transplanted hair growth, and possibly even thicken non-transplanted hair.
In PRP therapy, the platelet and growth factor rich fraction of the patient’s blood is re-injected into them, and then growth is activated by repeated needle insertion. Single needle insertion is irregular, time consuming and often painful. Scalproller treatment produces much more reliable, regular needle insertions in less time, and with less pain.
4 - Encourages New Hair Growth
The latest research by Intercytex, performed with Dr. Bessam Farjo as principal investigator, has shown that patients receiving superficial injections grow new hair, which may solely be a result of the controlled skin wounding itself.
This surprising result is correlated by the pioneering work published by Dr. George Cotsarelis of Pennsylvania University, who found that stimulation of the Wnt protein by wounding leads to hair regeneration. Wounding by microneedles would potentially start this Wnt protein mediated growth stimulation, and prevent synthesis of TGF-ß2, a protein known to induce hair loss.
Scalproller treatment increases Minoxidil efficacy and may independently promote new hair growth.
Why Titanium instead of Steel?
Most dermatological rollers are designed for use on facial skin and are made from stainless steel, which can blunt easily with daily use on the tougher scalp skin.
Nanogen’s Scalproller microneedles are engineered in Sweden from pure Titanium giving a finer and much more durable edge, eliminating excess irritation caused by ordinary steel needles.
Furthermore each individual Scalproller microneedle is Gold plated to maintain sterility.
No Pain No Injury!
The home use versions of Nanogen’s Scalproller are specifically designed to penetrate deep enough to be very effective, and yet not deep enough to touch nerves and cause appreciable pain.
When used according to the directions, the ultra-sharp titanium needles will penetrate the upper layers of skin without causing bleeding or permanent injury.
How To Use The Nanogen Titanium Scalp Roller
- For best results cleanse the scalp, removing oil,
dirt, sebum & flakes using Onescalp.
Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry. - Sterilise the Scalproller with the sterilising solution,
and allow the solution to evaporate until dry - At first, use a constant, gentle rolling motion in one direction once over each area, from the crown toward the front or the sides. Rolling in one direction produces a controlled amount of penetration and avoids tangling the roller in longer hair. With experience, individual users may prefer to roll in multiple directions.
- Apply a topical solution like Nanogaine or Minoxidil as per the product instructions, then gently massage into the scalp. When using once a day, use the roller at night as many topical solutions require time to absorb fully.
- Ensure the roller is cleansed thoroughly after each use, run under hot water and allow to dry before returning it to the case. Always allow the roller to cool before using.
