If your hair seems frizzy or coarser or harder to manage in Dubai than before, that’s no figment of the imagination. Heat, humidity, hard water and lots of styling can alter how your hair will behave — especially if it’s color-treated or already dry. This guide breaks down what “hair treatment” actually means, how to choose the correct treatment for your hair type and what the results + aftercare look like so you can book with confidence. For clients struggling with shedding or thinning, we provide clinic-led solutions like PRP Hair, Mesotherapy Hair and Exosomes Hair as well as complementary wellness add-ons such as our IV Therapy for hair (depending on your assessment).
Why hair needs extra care in Dubai
Dubai’s climate and lifestyle can stress hair in predictable ways. Humidity can make frizz worse, hard water can leave mineral buildup that makes hair dull, and sun plus indoor AC can dehydrate strands over time. Add frequent blow-drying and heat tools, and hair can start feeling weak, dry, or less manageable. If you notice more tangling, less shine, or hair that doesn’t hold a style, it usually means you need the right treatment type—not necessarily more products.
What “hair treatment” means at a medical aesthetic clinic vs a salon
Some people believe that hair treatment is a mask or salon conditioning, but in a medical aesthetic clinic way, the approach is different. Either way, it involves considering your hair history (hair color, bleach and chemical services), examining scalp condition and selecting something safe and realistic. This takes the guesswork out, and ensures that you’re not stacking treatments that don’t belong together, keeping an aftercare plan in mind that will help set additional or last-minute results.
If your primary concern is shedding or thinning (as opposed to frizz), a clinic path is typically more applicable than a cosmetic smoothing treatment. That could be an assessment of your scalp then targeted solutions like PRP Hair, Mesotherapy Hair or Exosomes Hair and in even some cases supportive nutrient support like IV Therapy Hair. Which one is right for you ultimately depends on the status of – and history with – your scalp as well as what you’re looking to achieve.
And if you are concerned with body hair and don’t give a hoot about the health of your scalp hairs, we even have Laser Hair Removal as a stand alone service — your consultation can assist you in choosing what category is perfect for your needs.
Quick self-check: what’s your main concern?
Before picking a treatment, consider what you really want. Frizz and puffiness usually call for a smoothing-focused option. When hair looks dull and feels lifeless, it often needs hydration and cuticle support to bring back softness and shine. If breakage is your main issue—hair snapping while brushing or split ends returning quickly—then strength and repair should be the priority. And when the concern is hair fall or thinning, the focus should shift to the scalp and root cause, because smoothing alone won’t fix shedding.
Scalp health matters more than people think
Many “hair problems” actually start at the scalp—buildup, irritation, oil imbalance, or sensitivity can affect how hair looks and feels. If your scalp feels congested, itchy, or flaky, you may benefit from a Scalp Facial as part of your routine. A scalp facial supports deep cleansing, comfort, and better scalp conditions—especially helpful before or alongside a hair fall plan.
Protein-based treatments: strength and structure
Protein treatment for hair is often generally a good idea when strands feel weak, overly stretchy when wet, or break easily post color and heat. The idea is to increase hair strength and elasticity so you have more command over your styles. But protein isn’t for everyone — if your hair already feels stiff or brittle, adding too much protein can make it feel more brittle. The best is to adjust protein intensity to be consistent with the condition of your hair, and don’t overdo it.
Keratin smoothing: frizz control and manageability
Frizz control and easy styling – This is why people usually opt for a keratin hair treatment. It can increase smoothness, shine and manageability — especially for high-porosity or coarse hair that responds to humidity. Keratin is usually a good choice for people who seek fast blow-dries and less daily work. And if your hair is very fine or recently bleached, different curling techniques and timing could mean the difference between fullness and stress on hair.
Hair Botox: repair-focused smoothness without heavy straightening goals
Botox hair treatment is often used when hair feels dry, damaged, and dull, and the main goal is softness and improved feel rather than strong straightening. Many clients prefer it when they want smoother hair that still looks natural and has movement. It can be a good middle ground for people who want reduced frizz and better shine but don’t want an aggressive “pin-straight” outcome. As with all treatments, results vary based on hair type and aftercare.
Nanoplastia: longer-lasting smoothing for stubborn frizz
Nanoplastia hair treatment is usually selected by those with coarse or resistant frizz who are looking for long-lasting smoothness and “easier surface restoration.” It adds a smooth result, especially if the hair is extremely responsive to humidity. Because hair history matters — specifically, bleach, chemical services and sensitivity — Nanoplastia should be selected after a thorough consult so the result fits your hair goals without compromise to overall hair health.
Hair fall treatment: when the scalp needs attention
Hair fall treatment is another category because it treats why hair falls or thins, not just how it looks post-styling. Shedding and breakage are often confused; strengthening and smoothing can reduce breakage, but shedding from the root requires further evaluation. In a clinic-led pathway are your tailor-made, clinically tested energy therapy choices like PRP Hair, Mesotherapy Hair or Exosomes Hair – depending on your pattern and triggers. Some customers are also looking for supportive wellness add-ons such as IV Therapy Hair, if nutritional support is part of their plan. If hair fall is your primary issue, you can’t depend on cosmetic smoothing treatments alone—get a good look first.
Quick comparison table: choose based on your goal
Here’s a simple comparison to help you decide based on your main concern and expectations.
| Option | Best for | Main benefit | Typical longevity* | Key note |
| Protein treatment for hair | Weak, breakage-prone hair | Strength + resilience | 4–8 weeks | Overuse can feel stiff |
| Keratin hair treatment | Frizz/high porosity | Smoothness + manageability | 8–16 weeks | Aftercare matters most |
| Botox hair treatment | Dry/damaged hair | Softness + shine | 6–12 weeks | Less “straightening” focus |
| Nanoplastia hair treatment | Strong frizz control | Longer-lasting smoothness | 12–20 weeks | Consultation is important |
| PRP Hair / Mesotherapy Hair / Exosomes Hair | Shedding/thinning | Scalp + growth-support plan | Varies | Assessment-led, results vary |
| Scalp Facial | Buildup/itch/oily or sensitive scalp | Scalp reset + comfort | Varies | Great support alongside plans |
*Longevity varies by hair type, washing frequency, product choice, and previous chemical history.
Results You Can Expect and How Long They Typically Last
People usually notice an instant change in smoothness and softness after treatment, particularly within the first week. The hair settles and finds its final shape over the next couple of weeks, making it easier to style from day-to-day. Longevity varies a lot via aftercare and lifestyle — how often you wash, use harsh shampoos, style your hair with heat and/or expose it to pool water can reduce wear time. Hence hair fall pathways are for longer duration and needs frequent follow ups as scalp getting better or regrowth is not an overnight process.
If you’re not sure which option fits your hair story (bleach, color, heat usage, scalp sensitivity), the best bet is to do a quick consultation to pick the plan that’s right rather than risk it.
Aftercare that protects results
Aftercare makes a noticeable difference in how long your results last. Use gentle, treatment-safe shampoos, limit harsh clarifying, reduce heat intensity, and always use a heat protectant. If you color your hair, avoid aggressive chemical services right after a smoothing treatment unless your provider advises a safe timeline. Small changes like washing less frequently, using the right conditioner, and protecting hair from sun exposure can preserve smoothness and shine for longer.
When to consult first (safety notes)
Consult first if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, have scalp irritation or dermatitis, recently bleached your hair, or have known allergies/sensitivities. Also consult if shedding has increased suddenly or continues for weeks, because it may need a scalp-first plan. Every hair type responds differently, so results vary, and a quick consultation helps you choose the safest option with realistic expectations.
Conclusion
Choosing the right hair treatment is about matching your hair type and main concern to the correct category—repair, smoothing, or scalp-focused care. Dubai’s climate makes aftercare especially important, so the best results come from smart selection plus a maintenance routine you can actually follow.

FAQs
1. How do I choose the right hair treatment for my hair type in Dubai?
Start with your main concern (frizz, damage, breakage, or hair fall) and your hair history (color/bleach/heat). A consultation helps match the safest option to your hair and avoids
2. Is hair treatment safe for colored or bleached hair?
Yes, but it depends on how recently you colored/bleached and your hair’s current condition. Your provider should assess porosity and damage level first because results can vary.
3. How long do hair treatment results usually last?
Most treatments last a few weeks to a few months depending on aftercare and washing frequency. Using gentle shampoo, heat protectant, and fewer hot tools helps results last longer.
4. Can hair treatment help with hair fall?
It can help if “hair fall” is actually breakage, but shedding from the root needs an assessment. For ongoing shedding, clinic options like PRP Hair or Mesotherapy Hair may be more suitable.
5. What should I ask before booking a hair treatment in Dubai?
Ask what the treatment is for (repair vs smoothing), how long results last, and what aftercare is required. Also ask if it’s safe with your hair history (bleach/colour) and what timeline to follow before colouring again.
