Losing scalp hair can be devastating for all genders. Most scalp hair loss is a progressive and gradual thinning. The pattern of hair loss varies by gender. If you or someone you love is experiencing scalp hair loss, Dr. Shelin Tkatch in Surrey, British Columbia can help.
What causes scalp hair loss?
The first step in treating hair loss is a medical evaluation to rule out:
- Anemia
- Thyroid issues
- Vitamin deficiencies
- Hormonal imbalance
- Autoimmune disease
- Stress response
What treatments help scalp hair loss?
Oral prescription medications can help with hair loss. Medications take at least six months to work and need to be taken for as long as you want your hair growth to be healthy. Medications for hair restoration require close medical supervision, which Dr. Tkatch is experienced in providing.
Non-invasive clinic treatments that improve scalp health include:
- Keravive
- Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatments
- Exosomes encourage hair regrowth.
PRP treatment is a non-surgical, completely natural, and drug-free treatment. It slows down hair loss, stimulates hair regrowth, and increases the thickness of your existing hair. Treatments are recommended once monthly for four treatments. A specialized dermal injector device precisely controls the depth and pressure of PRP injection.
In severe cases of scalp hair loss, hair transplants can be very successful. Hair transplants require a highly skilled and dedicated hair transplant team. Dr. Tkatch will be happy to refer you.
