Clinique du Grand Paris x MakeMyMask: anti-hair loss innovation

Faced with the growing demand for Hair Transplant and the ever more precise expectations of patients suffering from baldness, one thing became clear: the success of a transplant does not depend solely on the surgical procedure, but also on the quality of post-transplant care.
It is from this observation that a exclusive collaboration between MakeMyMask – dermocapillary laboratory founded by the Doctor of Pharmacy & Trichologist Dr. Julie Pernet - and the Grand Paris Clinic, French reference in hair transplants.


 


The finding: after the transplant, the scalp needs science, not marketing

 

According to David, manager of the Grand Paris Clinic, the majority of patients who come for a hair transplant are looking for solutions Natural, without side effects, and capable of promote rapid regrowth while protecting the grafts.
Yet, until today, no product really adapted to the post-transplant phase did not exist: classic lotions were often too irritating or not very effective in the long term.

It is in this context that MakeMyMask and the Clinique du Grand Paris have combined their expertise to develop the first patented anti-hair loss serum , specifically formulated to support hair transplants and prevent baldness in the long term.

 


A unique co-creation: the meeting between clinical and scientific formulation

 

This unique project is the result of close collaboration between the teams at Clinique du Grand Paris and Laboratoire MakeMyMask.

 

On the clinical side , David's team shared valuable data on the actual needs of patients:

■ Post-transplant expectations

■ Types of hair loss observed (androgenetic, reactive, post-operative)

■ Skin tolerance

■ Clinic care protocols

 

On the laboratory side , MakeMyMask took charge of:

■ The dermo-capillary formulation based on patented active ingredients

■ Ex vivo clinical validation

■ The study on hair growth markers (Ki67, β-catenin, IGF-1)

■ The development of a light, non-greasy texture , suitable for fragile scalps

 

The result ?
Un revolutionary anti-hair loss serum, which rivals Minoxidil according to ex-vivo studies, without rebound effect or irritation, and 98% natural.

 

 



A serum designed to maximize transplant results

 

The MakeMyMask x Clinique du Grand Paris Anti-Hair Loss Serum acts on several key factors:

  1. Stimulation of implanted follicles : activation of cell proliferation and anchoring of the hair.

  2. Reduction of post-transplant micro-inflammation , often responsible for graft loss.

  3. Rebalancing the microbiome and pH of the scalp to optimize healing.

  4. Prevention of baldness by permanently slowing down the action of hormones responsible for hair loss.

 

 

 

Thanks to this synergy between clinical data and formulation science , the serum has established itself as the reference post-transplant treatment recommended by hair experts and hair clinics.

It is part of a complete Post-Transplant Protocol which takes over from the transplant and maximizes its long-term effects.


 


A major breakthrough for baldness patients

 

For the first time, a hair transplant clinic and a dermo-hair laboratory are joining forces on a common project, combining medical expertise and a patented natural formulation.

This co-creation marks a new era in the treatment of baldness , where prevention, repair and growth are now integrated into a complete protocol.


 

A word from the founder, Dr. Julie Pernet

 

“The objective was clear: to offer a scientific, safe and effective solution to accompany hair transplants, but also to prevent baldness before it sets in. Thanks to this unique partnership with the Clinique du Grand Paris, we were able to combine our expertise to create the first anti-hair loss serum co-developed with a clinic. "
Dr. Julie Pernet, pharmacist & trichologist, founder of the MakeMyMask Laboratory


 

Conclusion: science, clinical practice and natural methods for regrowth

 

La Hair Transplant no longer marks the end of a treatment, but the start of a global protocol where hair clinic and the dermocapillary science work together to ensure lasting results.
Le MakeMyMask x Clinique du Grand Paris Anti-Hair Loss Serum is proof of this: patented, natural and clinically validated post-transplant care.

LED hair cap: useful, how to use it, which one to choose Hair light therapy works through photobiomodulation: red light, around 650 nm, recharges follicle cells, stimulates microcirculation, and prolongs the growth phase. Its best-studied indication is androgenetic alopecia—with two to three sessions per week for four to six months.

Hair and chemotherapy: the complete guide to taking care of your scalp Chemotherapy causes hair loss by targeting the cells in the hair follicle, and weakens the scalp in the process. Hair loss begins two to three weeks after the first treatment, and regrowth starts approximately three months after the last. Before treatment, you prepare; during treatment, you soothe and protect; afterward, you support regrowth.

Seborrheic dermatitis and psoriasis: what treatments are available, conventional or natural? Treatments for seborrheic dermatitis and psoriasis rely on three families of active ingredients: antifungals, anti-inflammatories, and keratolytics. Each has a cosmetic equivalent, useful for daily use between flare-ups—but which does not replace prescribed treatment for extensive forms of the condition.

What is the best anti-hair loss serum on the market? The best anti-hair loss serum can be identified by five criteria: transparency of composition, tolerability, level of evidence, clear instructions for use, and treatment duration. Our Tricho-Boost Anti-Hair Loss Serum, alcohol- and fragrance-free and 98% naturally derived, has been formulated to meet these criteria.

Micro-infusion or dermaroller: what's the difference for hair loss? Micro-infusion and dermaroller are based on the same principle: improving the penetration of active ingredients through micro-perforations. Micro-infusion delivers the serum in a single motion and works at a constant depth; the dermaroller creates perforations and then allows application at a variable angle. Neither is a treatment.

Ariana Grande, Lady Gaga: damaged hair or androgenetic alopecia? Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande have publicly discussed the condition of their hair, damaged by bleaching and styling. A broken hair fiber is not androgenetic alopecia: in one case the follicle is intact, in the other it shrinks. This distinction determines the entire treatment plan.

Why is your hair thinning? The hidden problem of a congested scalp Thinning hair isn't necessarily a genetic predisposition. Most often, a follicle congested with excess sebum and dead skin cells damages the root environment and slows growth. Cleansing, exfoliating, and stimulating microcirculation recreate the conditions for healthy regrowth.

Anti-hair loss shampoos: what the formulas really say (INCI 2026 comparison) INCI comparison of nine anti-hair loss shampoos: stated pH, sulfates, silicones, position of the claimed active ingredient, allergens, price per liter, and level of publicly available evidence. Only one of the nine products provides its pH, six contain sulfates, and the evaluation methods range from self-assessment to instrumental measurement.

Beyoncé and scalp psoriasis: what you need to know Beyoncé has publicly spoken about the scalp psoriasis she has suffered from since childhood. This chronic inflammatory condition accelerates the skin's renewal process, forming thick, well-defined plaques. It is often mistaken for simple dandruff—and is not treated in the same way.

Why exfoliate your scalp? Shampoo cleans the surface but doesn't remove the oxidized sebum and dead skin cells accumulated at the roots. Scalp scrubs remove this buildup, improve the penetration of treatments, and stimulate microcirculation—provided they are gentle: overly abrasive exfoliation worsens inflammation.

Is there an alternative to finasteride for hair loss? Finasteride remains the standard treatment for male pattern baldness, but it requires a prescription (a certificate has been required since 2026) and is contraindicated in women of childbearing age. Topical minoxidil, natural DHT blockers, and microneedling are documented alternatives—less potent, better tolerated, and available without a prescription.

Anti-hair loss serum or micro-infusion: which to choose? The anti-hair loss serum and the micro-infusion use the same active ingredients; the difference lies in the amount that reaches the follicle. The serum is the foundation for daily use; the micro-infusion, once or twice a week, significantly increases penetration. The two complement each other rather than being mutually exclusive.

Does rosemary really make hair grow? Rosemary contains molecules whose effects on microcirculation, inflammation, and 5-alpha-reductase are documented. However, studies have focused on standardized extracts, not homemade oils: the essential oil is irritating, the hydrosol is too diluted, and neither is sufficient for established hair loss.

My top 3 anti-fall approaches that are actually proven Only three approaches have proven effective against androgenetic alopecia: blocking the conversion of testosterone to DHT, stimulating hair growth topically, and improving the penetration of active ingredients through microneedling. Each approach has its limits on its own—it is their combination that produces results.

DHT blocker or Minoxidil: what are the differences? Minoxidil stimulates hair growth without affecting DHT, which explains the rebound effect when discontinued. A DHT blocker inhibits 5-alpha-reductase and acts on the hormonal cause. The two are not mutually exclusive: they treat two aspects of the same mechanism, and the best results come from their combination.
Image to render
What is a DHT blocker and how does it affect hair loss? A DHT blocker partially inhibits 5-alpha-reductase, the enzyme that converts testosterone into DHT. This reduces hormonal pressure on the follicle and slows its miniaturization. Its effect lasts as long as the medication is taken, and it only addresses one of the four mechanisms of hormonal decline.

Broken hair or new growth? A trichologist reveals how to tell the difference. Short, thin hairs on the top of the head: regrowth or breakage? A regrowth hair has a fine, tapered tip; a broken hair has a clean break of consistent thickness. The location confirms this: roots for the former, lengths and areas of tension for the latter.

Which DHT blocker should you choose? Selection guide by profile The hormonal drop stems from an excess of DHT, produced by the 5-alpha-reductase enzyme. A DHT blocker acts on this conversion—but its effectiveness depends entirely on the nature of the extract used, information that almost no brand displays. Our DHT Blocker® is based on a standardized extract of Serenoa repens, dosed at 300 mg per day.

Aerosol or powder: why change the format of dry shampoo In a dry shampoo aerosol, the propellant gases precede the active powders in the ingredient list. The powder format eliminates the propellants, allows for precise application to the roots, and reduces the formula to just a few ingredients—without sacrificing any effectiveness.

Oil bath: good or bad for hair? An oil bath is an excellent treatment for the lengths of your hair: it coats the hair fiber, reduces breakage, and adds shine. On the scalp, however, it delivers lipids to the Malassezia yeast and weighs down the roots. The key is in the application area.

Why choose a pH5 shampoo for your scalp? The scalp has a natural pH between 4,5 and 5,5. The further a shampoo deviates from this, the more the hair fiber swells, the more the cuticles lift, and the weaker the skin barrier becomes. pH is the most crucial factor in a shampoo—and the only one no one advertises.

Stress and hair loss: what is the real link? Stress does cause hair loss, but with a two- to three-month delay: the follicles enter a resting phase before being shed. The hair loss is diffuse, reversible, and lasts three to six months. By the time it starts, the triggering event is often already behind you.

The 5 factors of hair loss, and how to act from within Hair loss depends on five factors: nutritional, vascular, tissue, hormonal, and nervous. A supplement addresses these factors—providing sulfur-containing amino acids, promoting collagen synthesis, and improving blood flow—but its hormonal effect remains limited. Allow three months, the duration of a menstrual cycle.

Hydration vs. nutrition: which should you choose for your hair? Hydration delivers water to the hair fiber, while nutrition provides the lipids that retain it. The two are linked: without a surface lipid film, the applied water is lost within a few hours. This is why so many hydrating masks fail to provide lasting results.

Trichology: a science at the service of your hair Trichology studies the scalp and hair as a single organ. It allows us to trace a symptom back to its cause: flaking can indicate three different conditions, and hair loss can be reactive or hormonal. This distinction determines the entire treatment plan.

The hair cycle: how hair grows Hair follows a three-phase cycle: growth for two to six years, transition, and then rest before shedding. At any given time, 85 to 90% of hairs are growing. Understanding this cycle explains normal daily hair loss, the delayed onset of reactive hair loss, and the three-month delay before any results are visible.

5 mistakes to avoid at the beach for your hair The damage caused by the beach comes mainly from what we do right before and right after: going into the water with dry hair, forgetting to protect the scalp, letting the salt dry, and brushing it out while still in the water.

Why is our hair oilier in summer? Summer is the real exception to the rule: the heat actually increases the activity of the sebaceous glands and makes sebum more fluid. Add to that perspiration, salt, and sun residue. The solution isn't to space out shampoos, but to wash with a pH 5 product as often as necessary.

Protecting your hair in summer: why and how? Salt dehydrates the hair fiber by drawing water outwards, chlorine dissolves its lipid film, and UV rays oxidize keratin. Two simple, free steps prevent most of the damage: wet your hair with fresh water before swimming, and rinse it immediately afterward.

Reverse shampoo: what does it consist of and who is it for?   Reverse shampooing involves applying conditioner before shampooing rather than after. This method is ideal for fine hair that quickly becomes weighed down, and whose lengths lose all volume with a regular conditioner. On dry or porous hair, however, it deprives the hair fiber of the care it needs.

Static hair: why and how to tame it Static hair results from a transfer of charges between two rubbing surfaces, which dry air prevents from dissipating. But under equal conditions, it is the state of the hair fiber that decides: a weakened cuticle retains the charges, an intact cuticle allows them to flow away.

The antioxidant benefits of vitamin E for hair Vitamin E is a fat-soluble antioxidant that protects scalp lipids from oxidation, particularly the oxidation of squalene in sebum. Its mechanism is sound—but it doesn't make hair grow, and being at the end of the INCI list, its main purpose is to prevent the formula from going rancid.

Understanding and treating seasonal hair loss Seasonal hair loss is a physiological telogen effluvium: it is diffuse, lasts six to ten weeks, and resolves on its own. It never develops into androgenic alopecia—but it can be a sign of it. A thinning area is not seasonal.

Nylon, boar bristle, wood, silicone: how to care for your brush depending on its material   A brush accumulates oxidized sebum, dead skin cells, and styling product residue, which it then redeposits onto a freshly washed scalp. Nylon and silicone brushes are washable, boar bristles are cleaned on the surface, and wood should never be submerged—it swells and cracks.

How to limit the appearance of white hair? Gray hair is not bleached hair: it's hair that grows without pigment, due to a lack of active melanocytes.

Dry dandruff vs. oily dandruff: how to tell them apart? Oily dandruff results from an excess of sebum that feeds the Malassezia yeast: yellowish, sticky flakes and a shiny scalp. Dry dandruff stems from a weakened skin barrier: fine, white flakes and a tight, uncomfortable scalp. Two conditions, two different routines.

Brushing your hair: an age-old practice, provided you do it correctly. Brushing your hair detangles, distributes sebum along the lengths, and stimulates the scalp. However, you should always start at the ends, never force dry, tangled hair, and forget the "one hundred strokes" rule—a 19th-century invention with no basis in fact.

Scalp care: why treat the roots rather than the lengths Visible hair is a keratinized structure: it protects itself, but it doesn't repair itself.
