Hair Loss – Prognosis & Non-Surgical Treatment

Hair loss is often considered to be a degenerative issue with no hope of it getting better in the future, but that’s not always the case. 

There are also a great many people for whom hair loss is a temporary issue, caused by stress, medication, lifestyle, hair pieces, hair styling or even transplant surgery. In these cases, there is plenty of room for optimism and hope for recovery – especially when the condition is properly diagnosed and an appropriate treatment plan is coordinated.

‘Male pattern baldness’ constitutes the statistical majority of hair loss cases and this is generally considered to be irreversible, as it is caused by hormonal changes which cause the follicles to shrink so that they can no longer support hair retention and growth. Surgery is the best known solution, but is a bit radical and indeed expensive for many. Prescription medication is another recognised treatment which can help to stabilise the hair loss.

However, the good news is that carefully constructed non-surgical hair loss treatment plans are now available that can be of great help.

The first step is to ensure that the hair loss is properly diagnosed. This is a complex matter which demands skill and experience. See our blog 6 Best Ways to Diagnose Hair Loss for information about the options and methods available.

Once the condition has been fully understood, the doctor will be able to provide a prognosis of how it is likely to progress. At this point, you can start to consider what treatment you might like to consider.

Non-surgical hair loss solutions

Clinicbe offers a range of trichology services at its Knightsbridge hair loss clinic based in London. They achieve excellent results by carefully combining treatments in an ordered programme that is designed for optimum results. The focus is on promoting healthy scalp, skin and follicles; which is crucial to retention and growth of the hair itself. By working with your own hair, results are totally natural in appearance.

7-Step Treatment Programme.

This exclusive programme offers a systematic way to boost your own natural hair for healthier and fuller growth. The system starts with detailed trichoscopy diagnosis of the individual issues, before working through detox, nutrition, stimulation, homecare and supplements.

1. Diagnosis – Consultation with Trichoscopy & OligoScan
   Hair loss is a complex and individual issue. Understanding its causes is the first step in providing an appropriate solution, so we carry out detailed assessments in order to give accurate diagnosis. This starts with a trichoscopy examination using high magnification in order to see any physical issues with the hair, follicles, skin or scalp. In addition, we carry out OligoScan to highlight any mineral deficiencies, or presence of heavy metals which could be causing loss of hair.
2. Detox
   We use steam to warm the scalp and open pores in order to help release of toxins and impurities from the follicles. We then apply exfoliating acid compounds to break down any build up and blockages within the follicles, clearing the way for new hair growth while also aiding circulation.
3. Nutrition
   Based on your OligoScan results, we apply a special solution to help with vitamin and mineral deficiencies. These are delivered using Dermapen microneedling and is helpful for all hair loss, especially weak, thin and damaged hair.
4. Stimulation
   Application of a solution of peptides (proteins) and growth factors (smaller peptides) works to stimulate the growth of new hair as well as to stimulate the growth of specific tissues. Again, we use Dermapen microneedling to aid absorption of the peptides.
5. Intense Stimulation
   Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) uses a sample of your own blood which is then purified to separate out platelet rich plasma. After Dermapen microneedling, the plasma solution is applied and then releases powerful healing agents. This method provides intense stimulation and is strongly recommended for moderate to severe balding.
6. Homecare
   Special preparations, shampoos and conditioners are available that work to stimulate growth and help with hair retention too shedding. The appropriate home care products work alongside any in-clinic treatments to give optimum results.
7. Supplements
   We recommend supplements for nearly all our hair loss clients, but will adjust the supplement suggestions, dosage and delivery (tablet or injection) according to the individual’s requirements.

These natural approaches can be very attractive as a more natural and cost-effective alternative to more invasive transplant surgery.
