Our hair loss specialists are here to provide you with hair restoration options most suitable for your needs. We begin with a thorough diagnosis and offer both medical and alternative treatment plans to restore your hair safely.
Hair loss occurs when new hair does not grow properly or existing hairs fall out. This can be caused by many factors – some of which are temporary – stress, illness, medications, and hormonal changes – and others that are permanent – such as genetic predisposition. Hair loss can look different for everyone.
Here are a few common signs to watch for:
- Excessive shedding, thinning hair
- Receding hairline or bald spots
- Changes over time
Catching these signs early can make a big difference. If you notice any of these changes, we can help identify the cause and discuss the right treatment options for you.
Every case of hair loss is different, which is why an accurate diagnosis is the first step. During your visit, our specialists review your medical history, examine your scalp, and may perform simple tests to understand what’s causing your hair loss.
Identifying whether it’s due to genetics, hormones, stress, nutrition, or other medical conditions helps guide the right treatment plan.
Treatment options can include a combination of:
- Medical therapies: Topical or oral medications, injections, or laser therapy
- Restorative approaches: Supportive treatments that encourage healthy regrowth
We start with a thorough evaluation to understand your medical history and narrow down the factors causing hair loss.
We create a treatment plan that works for you. This can be through medication, surgical implants or non surgical methods (PRP therapy), or alternative methods.
