Hairstetics is uniquely positioned to offer an annual treatment to match the dynamic process of baldness, which provides immediate satisfaction and is more effective and cheaper than medication.
Current surgical solutions serve only a negligible segment of the real market potential at dedicated centers.
Hairstetics will capture the enormous untapped market potential by targeting the high volume of patients at the aesthetic clinics/dermatologists instead of those referred to the dedicated surgical centers (similar to what Botox did to the facial rejuvenation market).
