What To Do About Hair Loss?

Understanding Hair Loss

Hair loss is a condition that occurs when hair falls out from the scalp. While losing around 50 to 100 hairs daily is normal, excessive hair loss can cause concern. Hair loss can happen gradually or suddenly, leading to bald patches, thinning hair, or a receding hairline.

Causes of Hair Loss

The causes of hair loss are diverse and can range from hereditary factors and medical conditions to lifestyle choices.

Heredity

One of the most common causes of hair loss is heredity. Male and female pattern baldness, also known as androgenetic alopecia, is a hereditary condition affecting millions worldwide. It’s characterized by a receding hairline in men and thinning hair in women.

Medical Conditions

Several medical conditions can contribute to hair loss. These include thyroid disorders, alopecia areata, and scalp infections like ringworm. Some medical treatments, such as chemotherapy and radiation therapy, can also result in hair loss.

Hormonal Changes

Hormonal imbalances can also contribute to hair loss. For instance, women may experience hair loss during pregnancy or menopause due to hormonal changes. Hormonal imbalances can also result from conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

Nutrition

Poor nutrition can also contribute to hair loss. A diet lacking essential nutrients like protein, iron, and vitamins can lead to hair thinning. Crash diets, eating disorders, and digestive issues can also cause hair loss.

Lifestyle Choices

Certain lifestyle choices can also contribute to hair loss. Excessive chemical treatments like hair dyes, relaxers, and perms can damage hair follicles, leading to hair loss. Tight hairstyles like braids and ponytails can also pull on the hair, leading to hair loss.

Symptoms of Hair Loss

The symptoms of hair loss can vary depending on the cause. Some common symptoms include:

• Gradual thinning on the top of the head in men
• Receding hairline in men
• Patchy or circular bald spots in women
• Wider part or reduced fullness in women
• Sudden loosening of hair in women

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Hair Restoration

If you’re experiencing hair loss, you may be wondering about potential solutions. One cutting-edge solution is Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Hair Restoration. PRP treatment utilizes the body’s natural healing properties to stimulate hair growth and restore thickness. In the following sections, we’ll explore what PRP treatment is, how it works, and who might be a good candidate for this treatment.

What is PRP Hair Treatment?

PRP hair treatment involves drawing a small amount of the patient’s blood, processing it to concentrate the platelets, and injecting the PRP into the scalp. Platelets are rich in growth factors and proteins crucial in tissue repair and regeneration. When applied to the scalp, PRP promotes the regeneration of hair follicles, leading to healthier and thicker hair.

How Can PRP Help My Hair Loss?

PRP works by stimulating dormant hair follicles, increasing blood flow to the scalp, and promoting collagen production and other growth factors. This rejuvenates the scalp and encourages the growth of new, healthier hair. Unlike traditional hair loss treatments, PRP is a minimally invasive procedure with little to no downtime.

Step-by-Step Guide to PRP Treatment

1. Extraction of Blood Sample: The first step in PRP treatment is extracting a small blood sample from the patient’s arm.

1. Platelet Separation: The blood sample is then placed in a centrifuge, separating the platelets from the other blood components.

1. Concentrated PRP: The concentrated PRP is then extracted from the centrifuge and prepared for injection.

1. Injection of PRP: The PRP is skillfully injected into targeted areas of the scalp using a fine needle.

Throughout the entire procedure, our experts take great care to ensure the treatment’s precision and optimal effectiveness. Following these steps, PRP treatment can help stimulate hair growth and improve the overall health of the scalp.

PRP Expected Results

While individual responses may vary, many patients experience visible results within four to six months of undergoing PRP treatment. The improvement often includes thicker, healthier hair growth and reduced hair loss. Regular follow-up visits may be recommended to maintain and enhance the results over time.

Who is a Good Candidate for PRP Treatment?

PRP treatment is suitable for individuals experiencing weak hair growth, alopecia areata, or patches of hair loss. However, it may not be recommended for those with certain medical conditions, such as anaemia, active infections, or autoimmune diseases. Determining candidacy is a collaborative effort between the patient and experienced healthcare professionals.

Why Choose PRP Treatment?

• Minimally invasive procedure
• Little to no downtime
• Natural-looking results
• Stimulates hair growth and scalp health
