TED Hair Treatment in Hollywood, FL The Treatment Thinning Hair Has Been Waiting For
Hair loss is one of the most personal concerns a patient can bring to a medical aesthetics practice. At Aria Aesthetics in Hollywood, Florida, Erika Magarian, ARNP, a Board Certified Independent Family Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of clinical experience, offers Alma TED as a next-generation solution. TED, which stands for TransEpidermal Drug Delivery, uses focused acoustic sound waves and controlled air pressure to deliver concentrated hair regeneration actives deep into the scalp where follicle health is determined.
What sets Alma TED apart is the complete absence of needles, incisions, or any physical penetration. The acoustic energy transports active compounds through the skin barrier into the deeper tissue layers while the scalp remains fully intact. Patients who have previously avoided hair restoration due to needle anxiety or recovery concerns will find that TED removes both of those barriers entirely.

What Is Alma TED
TED Hair Treatment in Hollywood, FL: What You Need to Know
Alma TED is a proprietary hair restoration system developed by Alma Lasers, one of the most respected companies in aesthetic medicine worldwide. The TED system uses a patented combination of low-frequency ultrasound energy and air pressure, delivered through a specialized handpiece applied directly to the scalp, to temporarily open microchannels in the scalp tissue and drive a precisely formulated hair growth serum deep into the dermis where the hair follicles live.
Traditional topical hair loss treatments such as minoxidil foam or growth factor serums cannot penetrate deeply enough to reach the hair follicle bulge, the region of the follicle responsible for producing new hair growth. This is the primary reason why so many patients find them only partially effective. TED hair treatment solves this problem by using ultrasound energy to temporarily enhance scalp permeability, allowing the active ingredients in the TED serum to reach the precise depth where they are needed most.
The result is a treatment that delivers a professionally formulated hair growth serum to the follicles far more effectively than any topical product, without injections, discomfort, or recovery time. For patients with early to moderate hair thinning who want a painless, non-invasive path to hair regeneration, Alma TED at Aria Aesthetics in Hollywood, FL is one of the most exciting options available today.
How It Works
How Alma TED Hair Restoration Works at Aria Aesthetics in Hollywood, FL
Scalp Assessment and Consultation
Every TED hair treatment at Aria Aesthetics begins with a detailed scalp evaluation by Erika Magarian, ARNP, who examines the pattern and distribution of your hair thinning to build a clear clinical picture. She reviews your health history and determines whether TED alone or a combined protocol with PRP or Exosome therapy would produce the strongest result for your specific condition.
Scalp Preparation
The scalp is thoroughly cleansed before the TED handpiece is applied to remove any product buildup, oil, or debris that could interfere with energy delivery or serum absorption. No topical anesthetic is required, and there is nothing you need to do or avoid in advance of your appointment at Aria Aesthetics.
Ultrasound Energy Application
The TED handpiece is guided across the treatment area in slow, deliberate passes, emitting low-frequency ultrasound waves paired with controlled air pressure to temporarily increase scalp permeability. Most patients describe the sensation as a mild warmth or gentle vibration, with no pain or discomfort experienced at any point during the session.
TED Serum Delivery
While the ultrasound energy is applied, the TED system simultaneously infuses a proprietary serum containing growth factors, peptides, amino acids, and biomimetic compounds directly into the scalp. Because the serum reaches a depth that topical application alone cannot achieve, its biological impact on the hair follicle is considerably greater.
Post-Treatment
A full scalp TED session is typically completed within 20 to 25 minutes, after which you are free to wash your hair, exercise, or return to work with no restrictions. Before you leave, Erika will walk you through any at-home maintenance steps that may help sustain your results between sessions.
Who Is a Good Candidate
Is TED Hair Treatment Right for You?
TED hair treatment at Aria Aesthetics in Hollywood, FL is appropriate for a broad range of patients experiencing hair thinning or hair loss. Erika assesses every patient individually during a free consultation to confirm that TED is the most suitable treatment for their specific pattern and degree of hair loss.
Best Candidates for TED Hair Treatment
TED is most effective for patients in the early to moderate stages of hair thinning where the hair follicles are still present and active. It is particularly well-suited for the following patients and conditions:
- Men and women experiencing early to moderate androgenetic alopecia
- Patients with diffuse hair thinning across the crown, temples, or entire scalp
- Patients who are needle-phobic or who have avoided hair restoration treatments because of a fear of injections
- Patients who want a completely painless and zero-downtime hair restoration option
- Patients who have completed a PRP hair restoration series and want to maintain and extend their results
- Patients looking for a preventative hair health treatment to slow the progression of thinning before it becomes more significant
- Patients with fine, fragile hair who want to improve density, strength, and overall hair quality
- Patients experiencing hair thinning as a result of stress, hormonal changes, postpartum changes, or nutritional deficiency
Who May Not Be an Ideal Candidate
TED hair treatment works by delivering growth factors, peptides, and biomimetic compounds directly to existing hair follicles. In areas where hair loss is long-standing and the follicles have been completely inactive for many years, TED may produce limited results because there are fewer viable follicles remaining to stimulate. Patients with more advanced hair loss may benefit more from PRP hair restoration or Exosome therapy for hair loss, or from a combined protocol that includes TED as one component of a multi-treatment approach. Erika will give you an honest assessment of which treatment or combination of treatments is most likely to produce the best results for your specific hair loss pattern during your free consultation.
Understanding Your Options
TED, PRP, and Exosome Therapy: How to Choose the Right Hair Restoration Treatment
Aria Aesthetics in Hollywood, FL is one of the few practices in South Florida that offers all three of the most advanced non-surgical hair restoration treatments available today: TED, PRP, and Exosome therapy. Understanding how each treatment works and who each one is best suited for is essential to choosing the right approach for your hair loss. Here is a clear, honest comparison.
Alma TED
TED is the most comfortable of the three options, requiring no needles, no injections, and no downtime of any kind, making it ideal for patients with early stage thinning or those who are needle-phobic. It is also well suited as a maintenance treatment for patients who have completed a PRP series and want to preserve their results between sessions. Sessions take 20 to 25 minutes and results are typically visible at 2 to 3 months.
PRP Hair Restoration
PRP is the most clinically studied non-surgical hair restoration treatment available, using growth factors derived from your own blood and delivered via injection directly into the scalp for precise placement at the follicle level. It is best suited for patients with early to moderate androgenetic alopecia who want a natural, well-researched treatment. An initial series of 3 sessions is standard, with results visible at 3 to 6 months.
Exosome Therapy for Hair
Exosome therapy is the most advanced regenerative option of the three, using billions of cell-signaling molecules derived from stem cells to trigger follicle regeneration at a cellular level that PRP alone cannot reach. It is best suited for patients with more advanced hair loss or those who have not achieved their desired outcome from PRP. Fewer sessions are typically needed, with results visible at 3 to 6 months.
Can They Be Combined?
Yes. TED, PRP, and Exosome therapy are not mutually exclusive and can be used together to create a more powerful protocol than any single treatment alone. Erika will recommend the most effective approach for your specific pattern of hair loss and degree of thinning during your free consultation at Aria Aesthetics in Hollywood, FL.
Patient Reviews
What Our TED Hair Treatment Patients in South Florida Say
The Science Behind TED
What Is in the Alma TED Hair Growth Serum?
The TED serum used at Aria Aesthetics is a professionally formulated, clinically developed blend of active ingredients selected specifically for their ability to support and stimulate hair follicle health and hair growth. Unlike over-the-counter hair loss serums that contain basic ingredients at low concentrations, the TED serum is a medical-grade formulation developed in conjunction with Alma Lasers to complement and maximize the penetration-enhancing effect of the TED ultrasound technology.
The key active ingredients in the Alma TED serum include biomimetic peptides that signal hair follicle stem cells to enter the active growth phase, amino acids that provide the essential building blocks for keratin production, growth factors that stimulate cellular regeneration and blood vessel formation around the follicle, and antioxidants that protect the scalp environment from oxidative damage and inflammation that contributes to follicle miniaturization and hair loss.
When delivered through the TED ultrasound delivery system at the precise depths achieved during treatment, these active ingredients reach the hair follicle bulge and dermal papilla cells where they exert their most powerful stimulatory effects, creating a scalp environment that is genuinely conducive to healthy, active hair growth in a way that surface application alone could never achieve.
Your Results
What to Expect From TED Hair Treatment at Aria Aesthetics in Hollywood, FL
TED hair treatment produces results that develop gradually over time as the hair follicles respond to stimulation and new growth cycles are initiated. Understanding this timeline before you begin is essential to maintaining realistic expectations and recognizing the early signs that the treatment is working.
Timeline:
- Weeks 1 to 4: The treatment period. Initial sessions are completed. Most patients notice no visible change during this stage, but the biological processes supporting new hair growth have begun at the follicle level.
- Months 1 to 2: Reduction in hair shedding is often the first noticeable sign that TED is working. Many patients report that their hair feels stronger and more resilient during this period.
- Months 2 to 3: Early signs of new hair growth may begin to appear as fine new hairs in the treated areas. Overall hair density may begin to look slightly improved.
- Months 3 to 6: The most significant visible improvement in hair density, thickness, and overall hair quality typically becomes apparent during this period. The full result of an initial TED treatment series is usually visible at the 6 month mark.
- Month 6 Onwards: Maintenance sessions are recommended every 3 to 6 months to sustain and continue building on the results of the initial treatment series.
Recommended Treatment Protocol
For optimal results, Erika recommends an initial series of 3 TED sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, followed by maintenance sessions every 3 to 6 months. The exact protocol will be personalized during your free consultation based on your specific degree of hair thinning and your response to treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions
TED Hair Treatment FAQs: Aria Aesthetics Hollywood, FL
TED hair treatment is completely painless. There are no needles, no injections, and no discomfort at any point during the procedure. Most patients describe the sensation as a mild warmth or gentle vibration on the scalp. Many patients find the experience relaxing and enjoyable. This is one of the primary reasons TED is particularly popular among patients who have been avoiding hair restoration treatment because of needle-related anxiety.
TED uses ultrasound energy and air pressure to drive a professionally formulated hair growth serum deep into the scalp without needles. PRP uses injections to deliver concentrated growth factors from your own blood directly to the hair follicles. Both treatments stimulate hair follicle activity and promote hair regrowth but through different mechanisms and with different comfort profiles. TED requires no injections and no downtime while PRP involves scalp injections and mild post-treatment tenderness. Erika will recommend the most appropriate option or combination during your free consultation.
For optimal results, Erika recommends an initial series of 3 TED sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, followed by maintenance sessions every 3 to 6 months. The exact protocol will be personalized during your free consultation based on the degree and pattern of your hair thinning and your individual response to treatment.
Most patients notice a reduction in hair shedding within the first 4 to 8 weeks after beginning TED treatment. Early new hair growth typically becomes visible between 2 and 3 months after the start of the treatment series, with the most significant improvement in overall hair density and quality visible at the 6 month mark. Results continue to improve with ongoing maintenance sessions.
There is absolutely no downtime after TED hair treatment. You can wash your hair, style it, exercise, swim, return to work, or carry out any normal activity immediately after your session. This zero-downtime profile is one of the most significant advantages of TED compared to other hair restoration options and makes it easy to fit into even the most demanding schedule.
Yes. TED, PRP, and Exosome therapy are complementary treatments that work through different mechanisms to stimulate hair follicle activity and support hair regeneration. Combining them as part of a comprehensive hair restoration protocol can produce more significant results than any single treatment alone. Erika will recommend the most effective combination for your specific situation during your consultation.
Yes. TED hair treatment is equally effective for men and women experiencing hair thinning. It is particularly well-suited for women experiencing diffuse hair thinning across the crown and hairline, postpartum hair loss, and hair thinning related to hormonal changes, stress, or nutritional deficiency. Erika will assess your specific hair loss pattern during your consultation and confirm whether TED is the most appropriate treatment for your goals.
At-home scalp devices that claim to use ultrasound or light energy operate at significantly lower intensities than the Alma TED clinical system and do not use the precise combination of ultrasound energy and air pressure needed to achieve the degree of scalp permeability enhancement that makes TED effective at driving active ingredients to the follicle level. The Alma TED system used at Aria Aesthetics is a medical-grade device that has been clinically validated and is operated by a Board Certified Nurse Practitioner, delivering a fundamentally different and more effective result than any at-home device can achieve.

Other Hair Restoration Treatments at Aria Aesthetics in Hollywood, FL
PRP hair restoration concentrates the growth factors naturally found in your own blood and delivers them directly to the scalp to reactivate dormant follicles and support the hair growth cycle from within. Because the treatment uses your own biology, there is no risk of rejection or adverse reaction, making it one of the most well-tolerated options in clinical hair restoration.
Exosome Therapy for Hair
Exosome therapy delivers billions of cellular signaling molecules to the scalp, instructing follicle cells to shift from a dormant state into an active growth phase with a level of biological precision that goes beyond conventional growth factor treatments. It is especially well suited for patients experiencing more advanced hair loss or those seeking the strongest possible regenerative response.
Vampire Facial
The Vampire Facial pairs platelet-rich plasma with the controlled micro-channeling of microneedling to drive concentrated growth factors into deeper layers of the facial skin, triggering a natural repair response that improves texture, tone, and overall cellular health. For patients managing both hair thinning and skin concerns, Erika can coordinate both treatments within a single appointment.
