Treatments · HydraFacial Keravive
Your scalp is skin. Treat it that way.
Looking for scalp treatment in San Diego? Keravive is performed at a single studio in Mission Hills, and it is the treatment chosen for buildup, flaking and the mineral residue San Diego’s hard water leaves behind.
Keravive deeply cleanses, exfoliates, and hydrates the scalp while removing buildup that can contribute to dryness, flaking, and irritation. A healthier scalp creates a better environment for healthy hair growth. In San Diego, hard water can make scalp buildup especially common, making regular scalp care an important part of maintaining a healthy scalp. Every treatment includes a take home peptide spray to continue supporting scalp health between visits.

HydraFacial Keravive questions
- How much does a Keravive scalp treatment cost in San Diego?
- A single Keravive scalp treatment at KIAMO SKIN is $599. The series of three is $1,499 in total, which is the format most scalp concerns are treated in.
- What is the best treatment for a flaking, itchy scalp?
- The right treatment for a flaking, itchy scalp depends on whether the cause is buildup or a medical condition. Keravive treats buildup — oil, dead skin, product residue and hard water minerals — by cleansing, exfoliating and hydrating the scalp, then feeding it a concentrated peptide complex. San Diego water runs around sixteen grains per gallon, hard enough that mineral residue on the scalp is a routine finding here. If the flaking is scaly, patchy or painful rather than dry, that belongs with a dermatologist first.
- Is a scalp treatment worth it?
- A scalp treatment is worth it when the scalp is genuinely congested, flaking or tight — it is not a cure for hair loss. Keravive treats the scalp as skin, which is the one area most people skip entirely while spending on everything above it. A healthier scalp is a better environment for hair to grow in, but no scalp treatment regrows hair that has stopped for medical or genetic reasons. That distinction is made at consultation, not after a series has been paid for.
- What does a Japanese scalp treatment do?
- A Japanese head spa is a water-based cleansing and massage ritual built around relaxation, lymphatic massage and a deep rinse. KIAMO SKIN does not offer Japanese or Korean method scalp treatments. The difference is intent — a head spa is primarily an experience, while Keravive is a clinical protocol aimed at buildup, scalp health and the environment hair grows in, with a take-home peptide spray to continue between visits. Both feel good; only one is corrective.
- What do dermatologists recommend for scalp problems?
- Scalp problems split into two groups, and the right recommendation depends on which one you are in. Medicated shampoos and prescription treatments are the medical route for conditions such as seborrheic dermatitis or psoriasis, and those belong with a dermatologist. Buildup, hard water residue, product congestion and general scalp dryness are cosmetic, and that is what Keravive is built for. If a scalp has been treated cosmetically with no change at all, the next step is medical rather than another treatment.
