Our Top 3 Hair Loss Treatments that Work to Restore Healthy Growth

How would it feel to wake up every day, look in the mirror and see a full head of healthy, growing hair? While this may sound like an impossible dream, especially if you’re seeing more and more hair falling out of your scalp day after day, we’re here to tell you it may be easier than you think to restore healthy hair growth! 

These days, there are several hair loss treatment options available for those dealing with moderate to severe hair thinning. From topical treatments and supplements to surgery and more, let’s take a closer look at 3 effective hair loss treatments that actually work for our patients! 

 

Effective Ways to Treat Hair Loss


Below you’ll find the most
effective hair loss treatments we offer at Cumberland Skin, including medication, light therapy, PRP therapy for alopecia, surgery, and our hair care recommendations to stop hair loss. 

 

Minoxidil 


More commonly known as the active ingredient in the popular hair loss topical treatment, Rogaine, minoxidil is a topical applied to the scalp and works by increasing the delivery of nutrients to hair follicles. This both helps restore lost hair and increase hair growth to
prevent further shedding

Rogaine (minoxidil) comes in the form of a liquid, foam, or additive to shampoo and can be used by both men and women experiencing hair loss. However, it’s important to know this hair loss treatment takes several months to work, and once you stop using it, any new hair growth will fall out. 

 

Hormone Management 


While hair loss often comes along with age, it can also be a sign of an endocrine or hormonal imbalance. Hormones are essential and play a critical role in the overall health of one’s hair. When a person’s hormones are unbalanced, it can set off a number of unwanted side effects, including hair loss. 

 

Women Hormone Management 

Women experience a significant shift in hormones during pregnancy, childbirth, and menopause, which can often trigger hair loss. In most cases, this is temporary, and hair growth will return once hormone levels return to normal. 

However, in the case of menopause, the female body begins to produce less estrogen and progestin, which are both essential for healthy hair. Typically, hormone management or hormone replacement therapy is an option for women who are menopausal and experiencing hair loss. 

 

Male Hormone Management 

Unbalanced hormones are also a major hair loss cause in men. More specifically, as men age, testosterone starts to convert into a hormone known as dihydrotestosterone (DHT), an active hormone that increases hair thinning. 

One popular hair loss treatment option that works to combat this issue is the prescription supplement Propecia. Its main ingredient, finasteride, stops the conversion of testosterone into DHT, which slows down or even reverses hair loss. In most cases, however, hair loss will resume when one stops taking this hair loss supplement. 

 

PRP Therapy for Hair Loss 


Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a
cutting-edge hair loss treatment that uses your body’s own platelets to slow hair loss and boost hair thickness. Platelets have essential growth factors, which are proteins that stimulate cell growth and tissue repair. 

Considering hair loss is often caused by damaged hair follicles, PRP therapy is based on the thought that this hair loss solution would help reverse follicle damage and encourage hair to regrow naturally.
