HAIR LOSS
Hair Loss & Regrowth
Did you know that over 50 percent of women will experience hair loss, or alopecia, by the age of 65? In fact, it is one of the most common conditions we treat in our practice and one of the most distressing to our patients. Alopecia, for both men and women, can have debilitating psychological effects. Many of our patients have desperately tried just about anything suggested to them to regrow their hair; often without benefit and at considerable financial expense. This can lead to feelings of increased anxiety and despondency. However, there is hope!
There are many forms of hair loss, but they are generally divided into two groups– scarring and non-scarring. Non-scarring hair loss is the most common form and can be reversible in many cases. Androgenetic alopecia, or ‘pattern hair loss’ is one of the most frequent reasons for men and women to seek dermatologic care. After a thorough history and physical, a dermatologist may order blood work or even perform a scalp biopsy to evaluate for an underlying medical cause for the hair loss such as hormone imbalances or vitamin and nutrient deficiencies.
Treatments
There are many treatments for hair loss. In our practice, we often prescribe a combination of therapies including supplements, anti-hormonal agents and topical minoxidil. For dramatic results, we like to maximize results by adding supplements such as Nutrafol or Viviscal and adding HydraFacial Keravive scalp treatments which cleanses and nourishes the scalp.
Ultimately, treatment depends on the root cause of the hair loss. The bottom line is that you don’t to have to lose your hair over Alopecia! Seek help by scheduling an evaluation with one of our Providers and take the first step toward correcting the problem by successfully re-growing hair.
