Where To Find Them

Overview

Over the years, we've met many outstanding hairstylists who can design a hairstyle to best to match your face shape, head shape and lifestyle.

Not as many however, are able to give in-depth scientifically-validated explanations of how to deal with thinning hair, itching scalp and hair loss AND still make sure that you look red-carpet-worthy at the end of the service.

And that's where Papilla Haircare stands out.

Over the years, we've met many outstanding hairstylists who can design a hairstyle to best to match your face shape, head shape and lifestyle. 

For customers who believe in the power of Science, Papilla Haircare offers medically backed, award-winning solutions that have shown proven results. Founded in consultation with Korean dermatologists and hair transplant surgeons, Papilla Haircare is the first salon in Singapore to bring in the whole suite of medical grade hair and scalp therapies such as Scalp Electroporation, Radiofrequency, Low Level Laser Light Therapy and Mesotherapy to Singapore.

Using these non-invasive protocols to deliver powerful, medical-grade cultured stem cells deep into the subcutaneous level of the scalp and hair follicles, customers have seen accelerated hair regrowth that is shown to be 17X as effective as other methodologies. This means that all types of scalp conditions including Androgenic Alopecia Type 1 and 2 and Hamilton classifications 3 to 5, are suitable for Papilla Haircare’s hair growth treatment. Completely pain-free, with no damage to tissues and hair cells, all of which are FDA-approved and safe, even for breastfeeding mothers.

Kim Lim's Experience at Papilla Haircare

Fusing the Benefits of Hard Science with the Intimacy and Comfort of a Spa

As much as Papilla’s breakthrough technology wows us to no end, it is ultimately their personal touch of every individual stylist and scalp specialists that make us look forward to the next treatment.

Every scalp treatment here isn't solely about a methodical scalp diagnosis, scan, cleansing and treatment; but rather a pampering experience that incorporates heavenly hair washes, neck massages and sometimes lymphatic massages - all in the comfort of your own personal space sealed off by lush velvet curtains or in individual VIP rooms for a posh and private experience.

Not as many however, are able to give in-depth scientifically-validated explanations of how to deal with thinning hair, itching scalp and hair loss AND still make sure that you look red-carpet-worthy at the end of the service. 

Clearly, what they offer in stringent science, they balance with luxurious comfort.

The People Perfect the Process

For those who have a function to go after, you'd be glad to know that they also offer a highly experienced hairdressing team on site. All of them have over 10 years of experience at some of Singapore's top hair salons and count models and celebrities as part of their regular customer base. Hence, you can be assured that they'll be able to design trendy hairstyles to conceal any problem areas without compromising on style.

Considering that the clientele includes the stunning lush-haired Kim Lim (who incidentally believes so much in Papilla Haircare that she has become their ambassador), the prices are not out-of-the-world, and you know that you’re getting results that the top-tier of society swears by.

Definitely the place to go if you are looking for visible improvements in both your scalp and your hair condition in an ultra environment right in the heart of town, convenient to get to but still tucked away from public view!

Worth the money

Review for Kai

I've been doing the scalp treatment with Trichologist Kai for around 2 years. Initially I did RF treatment and I changed to SEP. Although it took few months, the result is amazingly apparent. I can see more baby hair growing longer and getting thicker as well, and my friends and colleagues can notice that too. Kai is really helpful, he can tailor each treatment to your need, also very friendly. Sometimes he's too busy but I believe that's because his service is recognised by more and more customers. This treatment is not cheap, but definitely worth the cost. No regret.?

Effective treatment

Review for Calvy

I did 12 sessions with Papilla after noticing significant hair loss. Calvy gave me good tips on how to look after my hair. Due to CB I had to rely on these tips and the hair tonic for 3 months before having treatments 2-12. The tonic plus the hair treatments gave me visibly healthier hair. There was less hair fall and growth of baby hairs all around my scalp and hairline. I couldn’t afford to continue the treatments but was happy with the results after treatment 12. Shoutout to Sieny too who did my sessions while Calvy was away. Sieny was very thorough and detailed when applying the mask/stem cells and did great head massages!

S.E.P treatment

Review for Amelia

Papilla is not the first salon that i went for scalp treatment. I have tried many other salons and one reason why I decided to choose Papilla is because of my Trichologist: Amelia. The treatment that she recommended is S.E.P, a non-invasive & needle-free treatment that allow serum penetration into deeper dermal layers and improve the serum absorption by 17x more. Amelia displays her professionalism through explaining in detail every steps of the treatment that I am doing, helping me to understand the various products/machines that was used and the results that is expected from this treatment. She is an attentive person. On my first treatment, I casually mentioned that the aircon is not cold so during my second treatment, she move me to a seat that is nearer to the aircon. She also shares with me various scalp and hair care tips - the proper way to wash hair, apply serum and even hair blowing techniques. These are all useful tips and I have been following that since day 1 I started the treatment. Amelia is also a Senior Stylist so I will definitely go to her the next time when I need to cut and color my hair. I believe that with her expertise, she would be able to come out with a nice haircut and color that is suitable for me. One thing I like is there is no hard selling involved. Pricing is definitely not cheap but if it’s effective then I feel that it’s worth the price. Will continue with my treatments and monitor the progress till I resolve my hair loss condition. A big thank you to Amelia and the team at Papilla.

The Best Haircare salon

Review for Calvy

The best experience i had was the scalp treatment with the hi-technology done my trichologist Calvy. The Friendly customer service makes you feel welcome and comfortable. No hard selling and the best is the progress was quite fast for me, my scalp got better seeing baby hairs growing back again. Will definitely continue my treatment here until I’m satisfied.

SEP treatment

Review for Kai

I went to see Kai as I was suffering major hair loss which occurred all of a sudden. Its been a year since I have used Kai’s services and have seen major changes to my scalp. He takes the extra mile to advise and provide tips. Even during the Circuit Breaker, he advised me on the products I can use until I could start treatment again. No doubt the packages aren’t cheap but the treatment and service is worth it.
