Hair loss, or alopecia, is a common condition that can affect the scalp or body, leading to thinning hair, receding hairlines, bald patches, or overall hair shedding.
At Precision Dermatology, we understand that hair loss can significantly impact self-esteem and quality of life. Hair loss can result from various factors, including genetics, hormonal changes, stress, medical conditions, or certain medications. Common types include androgenic alopecia (pattern baldness), alopecia areata (autoimmune-related), and telogen effluvium (stress-induced).
With a range of advanced treatments such as topical and oral medications, and lifestyle recommendations, we help patients restore hair growth and confidence.
Hair loss can affect people of all ages and may result from various factors. Below are answers to common questions about its causes, treatments, and prevention.
What causes hair loss?
Hair loss can result from genetics, hormonal changes, stress, medical conditions (like thyroid disorders or alopecia areata), certain medications, or nutritional deficiencies.
Is hair loss permanent?
Some types of hair loss, such as androgenic alopecia (pattern baldness), may be permanent, but others, like telogen effluvium (stress-induced hair loss), are often temporary and reversible with appropriate care.
What treatments are available for hair loss?
Treatments range from topical solutions (like minoxidil), oral medications (like finasteride), hair transplant surgery, and addressing underlying medical conditions.
Can stress cause hair loss?
Yes, high levels of stress can lead to a condition called telogen effluvium, where a large number of hair follicles enter the resting phase, causing noticeable shedding.
How can I prevent hair loss?
Preventing hair loss involves maintaining a healthy lifestyle, managing stress, eating a balanced diet, and addressing medical conditions early. Regular consultation with a dermatologist can help identify and manage risk factors effectively.
At Precision Dermatology we offer exceptional care for common and complex skin problems and provide a broad range of medical and surgical dermatology.
