When your hair starts to thin or fall out, it can be troubling. If you are experiencing hair loss, a dermatologist can help determine what type of hair loss you have and provide you with treatment options.
Causes of Hair loss:
There are many causes of hair loss that affect both women and men. The most common cause of hair loss is hereditary and age-related. Hereditary hair loss can start in your teens, 20s or 30s or later, especially in women (after menopause).
Men may see a receding hairline and bald patches, especially on top of their head. Women may see thinning hair and a wider part when they style their hair, but do not become fully bald.
Hair loss can also be triggered by stress, diet, medication, illnesses and autoimmune diseases such as Alopecia Areata.
Hair Loss treatments:
Evaluation by a dermatologist may help to define the cause of the hair loss and to develop a treatment plan. Sometimes a small (and relatively painless) biopsy or laboratory evaluation may be necessary to understand the reason for hair loss.
Available options for treatment range from topical creams and lotions to systemic medications and injectables e.g. Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy (PRP).
If you or someone you know is emotionally and physically affected by hair loss, contact SK!N to schedule a consultation.
