Hair loss is a common issue that can affect both men and women, leading to thinning hair or bald patches. At My Dermatology Clinics, we offer advanced treatments designed to restore hair growth and improve scalp health, helping you regain a fuller, more confident head of hair.

- Thinning hair or receding hairline.
- Excessive shedding of hair, especially in patches.
- Bald spots or noticeable patches of thinning hair.
- Overall decrease in hair density.
- Changes in the texture or quality of hair.
Causes and Risk Factors
Causes:
- Hormonal changes, such as during pregnancy, menopause, or thyroid imbalances.
- Genetics, especially male and female pattern baldness.
- Stress or emotional trauma, which can trigger temporary hair loss.
- Poor nutrition or deficiencies in essential vitamins and minerals, such as iron or biotin.
- Medical conditions like alopecia areata, scalp infections, or autoimmune diseases.
Risk Factors:

- Gender: Men are more likely to experience pattern baldness.
- Certain medications or medical treatments, like chemotherapy.
- Poor hair care habits, such as excessive heat styling or tight hairstyles.
Treatment Options
- Hair Transplant Surgery: A permanent solution where hair follicles are transplanted from one part of the scalp to another.
- Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy: Involves injecting concentrated platelets from your own blood into the scalp to stimulate hair growth.
- Minoxidil: A topical solution applied to the scalp that helps stimulate hair growth and prevent further hair loss.
- Finasteride: An oral medication that can reduce hair loss in men by inhibiting the hormone responsible for hair thinning.
- Laser Therapy: Low-level laser devices stimulate hair follicles to encourage regrowth.
- Hair Restoration Shampoos: Specialised shampoos that promote healthier hair and scalp, reducing hair shedding.
