Why BOTAK?

Dermatologists tell us that skin differs depending on the area of ​​the body. The scalp has a unique microbiome, rich in sebaceous glands, unlike the face, for example. This creates an environment conducive to bacterial growth.

The scalp needs hair to function normally. When hair is removed, whether because it has fallen out on its own, or because it has been shaved or cut, an imbalance is created that can affect its physiology, pH, and microbiome.

These imbalances can cause inflammation, dandruff, dryness, red patches, pimples, excess sebum, sun spots, premature wrinkles… the skin of the shaved scalp can no longer play its role as a natural skin barrier.

In addition, the thin skin of the shaved scalp is attacked daily by the use of the razor or clippers, by the sun, the cold, pollution, and by unsuitable products, even though it no longer has its natural protection from the hair.

Therefore, it needs to be cared for with dedicated products in order to restore its physiological balance and regulate its pH and microbiome.

BOTAK offers treatments for bald people to maintain their shaved head and preserve the health of their scalp as much as possible over time.
