What Is HydraScalp with Keravive?

HydraScalp with Keravive is a scalp health treatment developed by SkinHealth Systems, the company behind the HydraFacial platform. It uses a specialized HydraFacial attachment designed for the scalp to deliver a three-step protocol: Purify, which removes buildup from the scalp; Nourish, which delivers Keravive Peptide Complex Serum containing biomimetic growth factors and skin proteins; and Boost, a daily take-home peptide spray to maintain results between visits. There are no needles or incisions involved, and most patients find it comfortable throughout. Each session also includes a take-home spray to extend the benefits between visits.

Am I a Good Candidate for HydraScalp with Keravive?

HydraScalp with Keravive is a good fit for patients dealing with scalp dryness, flakiness, excess oil, or general thinning who want to improve the condition of their scalp. It works across a wide range of concerns and ages. Anyone with an active scalp condition should talk with a provider first, as some situations may call for a different approach.

Why Choose Holcomb Kreithen for HydraScalp with Keravive?

Holcomb Kreithen offers one of the most complete hair and scalp programs in the region, ranging from non-invasive scalp care to advanced surgical hair restoration. Every patient receives a recommendation built around their specific concerns, drawing on the team's experience across both surgical and aesthetic services.

Your Consultation

During a consultation, a provider will review your scalp health, ask about any changes you have noticed in your hair, and walk you through whether HydraScalp with Keravive makes sense on its own or alongside other treatments. You will leave with a clear understanding of what the sessions involve and what to realistically expect.

How Much Does It Cost?

Pricing depends on the number of sessions recommended and whether the treatment is combined with other services. A personalized quote is provided at your consultation. Holcomb Kreithen offers financing through Alphaeon, CareCredit, and PatientFi for patients who want flexible payment options.

What to Expect During Treatment

Step 1: Purify

The session starts with a specialized scalp attachment that uses gentle suction to loosen dead skin cells, product buildup, and surface debris from the scalp. Most patients say it feels similar to a scalp massage.

Step 2: Nourish

Keravive Peptide Complex Serum is delivered into the scalp through the same attachment, allowing the biomimetic growth factors and skin proteins to absorb more effectively than a standard topical product would allow. It requires no injections and is comfortable for most patients. The full in-office session takes about 30 minutes.

Step 3: Boost

Each patient leaves with the Keravive take-home peptide spray, applied daily to extend and maintain results between monthly visits.

HydraScalp with Keravive Recovery

There is no recovery period. Most patients go back to their normal routine immediately. Some mild sensitivity or slight redness may appear briefly, but it tends to clear quickly. Patients are generally advised to hold off on vigorous scalp washing for about 24 hours after the session.

HydraScalp with Keravive Results

Results build gradually over a series of sessions. After the first few visits, patients often notice improvements in scalp texture, less flaking, and a more hydrated scalp overall. Hair may feel more manageable as well. A starting protocol of three monthly sessions, supported by the daily take-home spray, is a common recommendation, though individual results will vary.

HydraScalp with Keravive FAQs

Is HydraScalp with Keravive the same as a regular HydraFacial?

They share the same platform and technology, but HydraScalp uses a scalp-specific attachment and the Keravive serum rather than facial serums. The two treatments are built for entirely different areas and concerns.

Can it be combined with other hair treatments?

Yes. Many patients pair it with KeraLase or NeoLTS Phototherapy for a more comprehensive approach. A provider will help you figure out what combination makes the most sense for your situation.

Can it be used as a maintenance treatment after other hair restoration procedures?

Yes. It works well as an ongoing scalp health measure for patients who have completed a course of KeraLase, NeoLTS Phototherapy, or other hair treatments. Keeping the scalp in good condition between more intensive treatments can help support longer-lasting results.

What is in the Keravive Peptide Complex Serum?

It contains a blend of biomimetic growth factors and skin proteins formulated to nourish the scalp and support healthier follicle function over time.

Is HydraScalp with Keravive safe for color-treated hair?

Yes, it is generally well-suited for color-treated hair. If you have recently colored your hair, a provider can advise you on the best timing for your first session.

Will it irritate a sensitive scalp?

The treatment is designed to be gentle, and most patients with scalp sensitivity handle it well. Anyone managing an active condition such as psoriasis or eczema should check with a provider before starting.

What is the take-home spray, and how do I use it?

The Keravive spray is a daily scalp treatment that contains the same core peptide blend as the in-office serum. You apply it to your scalp each day to keep supporting the results between monthly sessions.

Can men get this treatment?

Absolutely. Scalp dryness, buildup, and thinning affect men and women alike, and the treatment is a strong option for male patients dealing with any of those concerns.

Can I receive HydraScalp with Keravive if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?

This treatment is not recommended during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Patients who are pregnant or nursing should wait until after that period before scheduling a session.
