Common Hair Loss (Alopecia) Causes
To determine the source requires in-depth knowledge and critical consideration in each case. At our local clinics, we have dermatologists who specialize in hair loss diagnosis and treatment.
Did you experience sudden hair loss?
Unexpected hair loss can occur when the body incurs a tremendous amount of sickness or stress. For example, some conditions that may cause temporary thinning include the flu, pneumonia, diabetes, or nutritional deficiencies. Suddenly losing your hair can be quite scary, but in these situations, once your illness is cured or managed, your hair will return.
Men’s Hair Loss
Male pattern baldness may be familiar, but it nonetheless embarrassing. This type of hair loss is permanent, but alas, there are some treatment options available. Hair transplant surgery is a treatment option for men who are unhappy with their balding scalp.
Women’s Hair Loss
Some causes of women’s hair loss include hormonal changes, birth control, rapid weight loss, certain medications, high stress, pregnancy, and illness. Since the variation of causes is so broad, contacting a specialized dermatologist can provide the expertise you need to determine your cause and best-suited treatment.
Children Hair Loss
While adult females and males may experience some embarrassment due to hair loss, children find it that much more difficult. Some causes include vitamin deficiency, accident trauma, reduced blood flow to scalp, hats, and even cold weather.
Hair Restoration
Hair restoration service at World’s Famous Dermatologist is a very straightforward approach to helping out guest patients who suffer from non-scarring alopecia (hair loss). For many of these guest patients, client education is a good starting point. As far as hair care habits and practices are concerned, these should be discussed with your provider during your visit. Permanent hair treatment, weaves, braided hair styles, and treatment that involve any heat are harmful to the hair restoration process. Generally the provider will offer therapeutic injections with anti-inflammatory hair restoration solution. Twice daily use of WFD hair serum will be recommended at home in between visits.
