What is Nonsurgical Hair Restoration?
Nonsurgical hair restoration at Mountain View Dermatology and Aesthetics in Tucson, AZ is an advanced solution for men and women experiencing thinning hair or receding hairlines caused by genetics, hormonal changes, or lifestyle. We offer TED™ by Alma paired with the TED+ Hair Care Formula, a needle-free approach that uses acoustic waves and air pressure to deliver growth factors into the follicles to strengthen hair and support new growth.

Hair loss affects millions of men and women and can have a significant impact on self-confidence. The most common cause is androgenetic alopecia, also known as male or female pattern hair loss. In men, it often appears as a receding hairline or thinning at the crown. In women, it typically causes diffuse thinning and a widening part. Other contributing factors include hormonal changes such as menopause or postpartum shifts, stress, nutritional deficiencies, certain medications, and lifestyle factors. Early intervention offers the best opportunity to preserve and strengthen existing hair.
How Does Nonsurgical Hair Restoration Work?
During your treatment, you relax in a comfortable chair in a private room. The procedure is noninvasive, requires no needles or anesthesia, and typically causes minimal discomfort. A team member applies the TED™ handpiece to the scalp, where acoustic energy and air pressure infuse the TED+ Hair Care Formula into the follicles. This promotes circulation and delivers essential nutrients, helping hair grow thicker, stronger, and more resilient. Sessions are quick, and you can return to your daily activities immediately afterward.

Who Is a Good Candidate?
TED by Alma is a good option for men and women in the early to moderate stages of hair thinning who want to strengthen existing hair and support new growth without surgery. It may also benefit patients who are not candidates for or do not want hair transplant surgery. During your consultation, Dr. Marc I. Epstein or a member of his team will evaluate your scalp, review your history, and help identify contributing factors so your plan addresses the root of the problem. Some scalp conditions, such as scaling or flaking, may need treatment first; our team also treats scalp concerns related to psoriasis and other skin conditions.
What Results Can I Expect?
Hair grows gradually, so improvements develop over time. Many patients begin to notice reduced shedding and thicker-feeling hair within a few months, with continued improvement after completing their recommended series. Maintenance treatments help sustain results. See real patient outcomes in our Gallery.
