Is QR678 safe?
The injections are superficial and given with very fine needles, and most patients tolerate them without anaesthesia; slight soreness afterwards usually settles within a few hours. The safety conversation that matters is about suitability rather than the procedure — it is not advised during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and your full medical history and medication should be disclosed at consultation.
What the procedure involves
Injections into the scalp, superficial and given with very fine needles. Most patients tolerate them without anaesthesia, and slight soreness afterwards usually settles within a few hours.
There is no blood draw, unlike PRP or GFC, which is one reason sessions are shorter.
Who it is not for
- Not advised during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
- Generally not started for hair loss of less than six months' duration — which is a suitability rule rather than a safety one, but it changes whether you should be starting now.
Disclose your full medical history and all medication at consultation. Do not stop anything prescribed on your own.
The honest limit of what this page can tell you
Our treatment page for QR678 does not publish a side-effect list, and this page deliberately does not invent one. What that means practically is that the side-effect conversation is one to have with the doctor at consultation, with the specific formulation in front of you.
Ask directly: what are the recognised side effects, how common are they, what should I do if I get one, and when should I call.
A clinic should be comfortable answering that about any injectable it offers, and you are entitled to the answer before consenting rather than after.
Safety also means realistic expectations
The other half of a safe treatment is not being sold one that cannot work. QR678 acts on follicles still present and active; its effect is limited on a scalp that is completely bald. Your doctor should say so at consultation rather than starting a course regardless.
It is also not an alternative to a hair transplant and does not relocate hair, and The Aesthetic Edge does not offer hair transplant.
What to check about the product itself
Ask which formulation is being used and to see it. For any branded injectable, knowing what is going in — and that it is being administered by a doctor — is a reasonable thing to establish.
