Hair loss can devastate your confidence and self-esteem. Luckily, there are many treatment options available to prevent hair loss and promote new hair growth. Many of these treatments can be effective when used together.
Topical treatments are medications that are applied directly to the scalp. One of the most popular and effective topical hair loss treatments is minoxidil. Minoxidil is an over-the-counter treatment found in the form of liquid, foam or shampoo. It works wonders to slow hair loss and encourage new growth in patients suffering from male or female pattern hair loss. However, it is important to note that minoxidil is not a proven treatment for complete hair loss.
Prescribed medications like finasteride or dutasteride are excellent treatments for hair loss. Finasteride is an oral medication to treat male pattern hair loss by inhibiting dihydrotestosterone, a hormone that contributes to hair loss. Dutasteride is another oral medication that works similarly to finasteride to inhibit dihydrotestosterone, serving to prevent hair loss.
Platelet-rich plasma injections are an innovative regenerative treatment using the patient’s own plasma drawn from the platelet and processed to help concentrate the platelets. This solution is then injected directly into the scalp to stimulate the hair follicles and encourage new growth. Botox injections are also an option to promote hair growth for some patients.
Follicular unit extraction (FUE) and follicular unit transplant (FUT) hair restoration surgery is an amazing way to regain fuller, more lush hair. Both of these surgeries involve transplanting balding-resistant hair follicles to the areas of the scalp needing treatment. These surgeries provide long-lasting, natural-looking results.
