Genetics, DNA and Hair Loss Treatments

Genetics or DNA is one of the most common causes of thinning hair. Androgenetic alopecia is a hereditary condition which can affect men or women, causing premature hair loss.

So if your parents or grandparents suffered from thinning hair then it is more likely that you will too.

Understanding the cause of thinning hair is key to finding the most appropriate treatment solution, which is why our hair loss consultations spend time considering the underlying reasons.

Genetic Hair Loss

Androgenetic alopecia is also known as ‘common balding’ – the name in itself tells you that it affects a great many people.

It occurs due to the release of hormone Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which clings to the hair follicle and gradually causes it to shrink and degrade so that it can no longer support the normal growth of the hair. Over time, the hairs become thinner and weaker until they fall out. Due to the condition of the follicle, regrowth is unlikely.

In men, genetic hair loss tends to follow the classic ‘male pattern baldness’ receding at the hairline and thinning at the crown until the top of the head becomes bald, leaving better growth at the sides and the back of the head.

Women experience genetic hair loss differently. Hair tends to thin around the natural parting, but is otherwise more generalised, so that the whole head of hair looks wispier with a visibly wide parting.

Clinicbe based in London use trichoscopy diagnosis for a detailed assessment of the hair and scalp. This is invaluable to understanding the causes and therefore determining the best course of action.

Can you do anything about genetic hair loss?

If your hair loss is hereditary, some may consider it to be a permanent condition, as the predisposition to the hormonal changes causing your thinning hair are built into your DNA.

However, at Clinicbe’s advanced non-surgical hair treatment clinic in London, there are potential solutions that can help to address thinning hair.

Early intervention

Early intervention tends to give the best results, as it is far more productive to address the condition before the follicles start to die. If treatment starts early, then measures can be taken to improve the health of the follicles and promote better retention of hair – and ultimately regrowth and recovery.

Non-surgical treatment options for genetic hair loss

Clinicbe based in London has a variety of treatment options that can be very effective without the need to resort to costly and risky surgery, with concerns that results can be high maintenance or look unnatural.
