Hair Loss Treatment Q&A

What is hair loss treatment?

Hair loss can have a significant impact on your self-image no matter what age it starts and how it began. Your first instinct upon noticing a bald spot or thinning area on your scalp is probably to search for a solution, and Lago Mar Medical Clinic has you covered.

 

During your initial consultation for hair loss treatment, your provider examines your scalp and looks at the hair loss pattern. They also go over your medical history and the medications you currently take to find out why you may be losing hair. Blood tests and scalp biopsies might be another necessary step in making a diagnosis.

 

Hair loss treatments at Lago Mar Medical Clinic help promote natural hair growth, so you don’t have to wear a wig or artificial hairpiece.

How does hair loss treatment work?

There are a few different ways to treat hair loss that result in natural hair growth. Growing hair involves easy maintenance and looks far more natural than artificial replacement hair, so it’s a preferred option for most individuals experiencing hair loss.

 

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections are one of the modes of treatment for hair loss available at Lago Mar Medical Clinic. Your provider extracts a sample of your blood and places it in a centrifuge to separate the cell types. One of those cell types is called a platelet, and platelets are rich in growth factors.

 

By injecting only platelets and plasma from your blood into your scalp, you can promote follicular healing. For many individuals, this results in natural hair regrowth. You need to book several visits to get the best results.

 

There are also medications available for hair loss treatment that your provider might recommend. Some are over-the-counter, and others are available by prescription only. A final option, hair transplant surgery, removes follicles from a healthier area of your scalp and implants them in the balding section.

Am I a good candidate for hair loss treatment?

To be a good candidate for hair loss treatment with PRP or with any of the other options that allow you to grow your own hair, you must retain at least some visibly healthy follicles. You’re more likely to be a candidate if you:

How does medical weight loss benefit my health?

With some weight loss plans, you might see a weight reduction but no health benefits. With medical weight loss, you’re guaranteed both. Your provider creates your plan to make sure it fulfills your nutritional needs and your body’s physical exercise needs, so that your health improves as a result. A few possible health benefits from losing weight are:
